TL;DR · Senior Specialist Electrical Engineer

The Senior Specialist, Electrical Engineer (RF/Antenna) supports the execution of verification testing for complex antennas and systems, including reflector antennas, feeds, and phased array systems. Working within a multi-disciplinary engineering team, the individual performs box-level through spacecraft-level antenna functional and performance calibration, characterization, and range testing. Key responsibilities include thermal characterization, emissions and susceptibility testing, and G/T testing while generating performance documentation and specification compliance assessments. The role requires interpreting complex test system architectures using network analyzers, microwave receivers, RF sources, signal generators, and arbitrary waveform generators. Required skills include proficiency with Keysight, Agilent, Rohde & Schwarz, and NSI-MI equipment, along with Matlab and Python for data visualization. The work involves solving compatibility and interface problems across RF, mechanical, thermal, and digital subsystems.

What you'll do

  • Execute verification testing for complex antennas, including reflector antennas, feeds, and phased array systems.
  • Perform antenna functional and performance calibration from box-level through spacecraft-level components.
  • Conduct antenna range testing, thermal characterization, emissions and susceptibility testing, and G/T testing.
  • Interpret complex antenna test system architectures using network analyzers, microwave receivers, and signal generators.
  • Lead test execution using traditional methods such as far-field, planar near-field, and spherical near-field.
  • Generate antenna performance documentation, including test reports and specification compliance assessments.
  • Develop and execute detailed test plans and procedures for antenna systems in coordination with cross-discipline teams.
  • Resolve compatibility and interface problems between antenna products and other subsystems.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s Degree and minimum 6 years of prior relevant experience.
  • Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related experience.
  • Minimum of 10 years of prior related experience in lieu of a degree.
  • U.S. citizenship is required to obtain a security clearance.
  • 4 years of experience with antenna system test supporting design, development, manufacturing and verification (preferred).
  • Experience with analysis and data visualization tools such as Matlab, Python and/or other antenna analysis tools (preferred).
  • Experience working with cross-discipline teams in the development and execution of detailed test plans and procedures for antenna systems (preferred).
  • Experience executing antenna system hardware verification testing at acceptance, proto-flight and qualification levels (preferred).
