THE WORK
The Systems Engineering and Integration Team is seeking a Radar Electromagnetic Warfare Analyst. The Radar Electromagnetic Warfare Analyst will support analysis and modeling activities focused on electromagnetic warfare applications for missile defense systems. The role includes conducting special studies, analyzing radar electromagnetic protection techniques, and contributing to the development and use of MATLAB-based simulation tools that model radar and electronic warfare interactions at the in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) signal level.
This position operates in a classified environment and supports engineering analysis used to evaluate system survivability and electromagnetic performance.
Key Responsibilities
Conduct technical studies related to electromagnetic warfare and radar electromagnetic protection for missile defense systems.
Develop and utilize MATLAB-based simulations to model radar signal behavior, electronic attack (EA), and electronic protection (EP) techniques.
Implement and analyze radar signal models in the time domain at the in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) level.
Evaluate RF propagation effects and their impact on radar and electronic warfare performance.
Support analysis of electromagnetic threats and system vulnerabilities.
Generate technical reports, briefings, and documentation summarizing study results and modeling outcomes.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to support system-level electromagnetic survivability assessments.
Contribute to the improvement and extension of simulation tools used to evaluate radar and EW system performance.
