Systems Engineer

MAG IS OFFERING UP TO A 10k SIGN-ON BONUS FOR QUALIFIED CANDIDATES!

MAG Aerospace is seeking an experienced Systems Engineer to provides engineering expertise in pursuit of technical solutions to fielded and future electronic warfare systems, tactical enterprise, and challenges facing the Army’s current and future forces. The Systems Engineer should possess in depth knowledge of Electronic Warfare (EW), RF Engineering, and Signals Intelligence (SIGINT). The selected candidate will have the opportunity to utilize their experience and knowledge to develop hardware and software to improve systems requirements document and specification, back-end signal processing of next generation RF systems including SIGINT and Electronic Warfare (EW) sensors.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a fast-growing team with multiple opportunities for upward advancement supporting EW&C. The EW&C program delivers critical capabilities to counter current and future threats, enabling the next generation of warfighting capabilities from sensor to Soldier worldwide. By applying game changing cyber technologies through agile development methodology, we enable battlefield dominance for our Warfighters.

Telework available up to 3 days per week.

Alternate/flexible work schedule available.

Duties include, but not limited to:

• Provide analysis, requirements and algorithm design, implementation, integration, verification, and maintenance of ground-based EW & SIGINT systems.
• Working with intel and electronic warfare analysts to characterize adversary electronic orders of battle to include specific analysis on threat radar systems and blue force system’s ability to detect and intercept a given set of threats.
• Conduct analysis, subsystem analysis, architecture/subsystem decomposition, requirements and algorithm design, implementation, integration, verification, and maintenance of ground-based SIGINT and EW systems.
• Exercise a strong knowledge of EW and SIGINT systems and subsystems to develop system and subsystem specifications necessary for meeting performance metrics against a given set of threat signals of interest.
• Understanding of supporting technologies including pulse detectors, de-interleaving, pulse descriptor word generation and spectrum survey strategies associated with counter Radar operations.
• Collaborate across multi-functional teams to identify opportunities for improving use cases, CONOPS, CONEMP, and TTPs.
• Participate in algorithmic design and machine learning frameworks including classification and identification techniques.
• Ability to self-manage and pace responsibilities to ensure completion of all required activities in a timely manner.
• Conceives new concepts and approaches to resolve engineering problems.
• Identifies existing or potential problems and provides engineering advice and guidance and/or directs a course of action to resolve engineering matters.
• Develops presentations for support activities and/or higher headquarters to summarize results of actions against predetermined plans, current status or plans, progress, deficiencies, and outstanding accomplishments.
• Research and implement state-of-the-art processing technologies tailored for application to RF data processing.
• Debugs and corrects system level problems and issues in conjunction with vendors.
• Develops and documents overall System and Subsystem Level design, function, and performance criteria.
