RF/Radar Systems Engineer - Smyrna/Atlanta, GA - SEAL

Submit Resume ID: 497981 Type: Researchers Location: Atlanta, GA, Smyrna, GA Categories: Electronic Warfare, Radar, RF

The Georgia Tech Research Institute has opportunities for research engineers within the Sensor and Systems Engineering Division (SSED). SSED projects focus on developing hardware for a wide range of Department of Defense applications. Hardware development includes designing and building custom hardware, modifying existing hardware, implementing solutions using general purpose hardware, and repurposing hardware. Applications primarily include radar, electronic warfare, and embedded signal processing but often span into communication systems, surveillance systems, and other remote sensing applications.

RF/Radar Systems Engineers work with a team to perform advanced system and algorithm development using established systems engineering approaches. Based on detailed trade studies and requirements analyses, radar systems engineers develop solutions to satisfy system requirements and perform functions related to all aspects of radar system design. These functions include the development of the complete architectural design of radar systems, investigation and development of new algorithms to advance key sensor capabilities by leveraging signal processing techniques and novel waveform development, development of detailed simulations of algorithms and systems for design verification or to facilitate operational software development, the design of sensor modes that maximize sensor performance, the collection and analysis of data from laboratory or flight tests, and formal verification that the final design solution meet all system requirements.

Conduct initial RF subsystem and system design studies, testing plans, and analysis of requirements as directed by technical lead. Develop technical reports and diagrams detailing design description or performance as defined by requirements. Works with Interface with and learn how to work with disparate engineering teams for technical tasking.
