JOB TITLE: Principal Survivability Engineer 3
The Principal Survivability Engineer 3 joins the Survivability Engineering team to develop, test, and implement materials and technologies that enable aircraft to operate in enemy airspace. This role involves the full systems engineering lifecycle, including research, modeling, analysis, static component testing, dynamic flight testing, and manufacturing support. The engineer will use proprietary analysis codes to predict design performance and build physical models to verify results. Key responsibilities include reducing aircraft detectability across electromagnetic, infrared, visual, and acoustic spectrums while balancing stealth goals with other engineering requirements. The position requires expertise in design integration, product support, or antenna integration. Candidates must possess skills in Radio Frequency modeling, computational electromagnetic analysis, and the ability to post-process complex electromagnetic data to improve Low Observable platform signatures.
