Senior Mission Systems Engineer, Electronic Warfare, Air Dominance & Strike, Active ClearanceActive$220K
The opportunity
Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.
What you'll do
Define the electronic warfare capability of Group 5 autonomous platforms —: threat sets to be countered, effects to be delivered, and the mission-level EW requirements that follow from them
Own the electronic support chain end-to-end: wideband channelization, pulse descriptor word generation and deinterleaving, emitter classification and specific emitter identification, and direction finding and geolocation — and specify the onboard processing needed to close it
Define and validate electronic attack employment: technique selection and generation, DRFM-based deception, jamming assignment and power management — and the geometry, timeline, and J/S and burn-through conditions under which each technique actually works
Run and review EW link budgets: ERP, receiver sensitivity and dynamic range, probability of intercept, and antenna pattern and aperture placement — and translate the available margin into concrete employment options and range envelopes for the mission planners
Build and maintain modeling, simulation, and threat-emulation environments to: evaluate EW effectiveness against representative threat laydowns, and lab benches to characterize payload performance in contested and degraded conditions prior to flight
Own the selection, integration, and lab-to-flight qualification of EW: payloads — including vendor and subcontractor technical direction — within the power, cooling, SWaP, and mission-duration budgets of a Group 5 airframe
What they're looking for
- Collaborate with RF, networking, avionics, autonomy, and software engineers: to deconflict EW operation against the platform's own datalinks and sensors, and translate mission requirements into EW system engineering specifications traced through design, test, and flight
- A sincere commitment to a positive, inclusive, and collaborative culture
- + years experience in electronic warfare systems engineering, EW capability: development, or EW systems analysis
- Expert level understanding of the algorithms underlying electronic support: and electronic attack systems — including channelization, pulse deinterleaving and PDW processing, emitter classification, direction finding and geolocation, and technique generation
