When a customer takes delivery of a RF system or product, they expect it to meet the functional and performance specifications. Functionality, reliability, and user experience are key to successful product development—and that means rigorous testing. That’s why we need you, an experienced test engineer who knows how to thoroughly test hardware and software systems and work with developers to make sure our team releases the best product possible.
We are seeking a highly motivated RF System Test Engineer to validate next-generation radio frequency systems built for the US Intelligence Community (IC) and Defense Community. In this role, you will design, execute, and automate comprehensive test strategies for mission-critical systems used in survey, collection, precision geolocation, jamming, and spoofing of adversarial RF Signals of Interest (SOI). You will test these capabilities across diverse deployment formfactors, including terrestrial rack based or unattended ground sensor, payload in unmanned systems, man-portable tactical gear, and space-based COTS integrations, utilizing a wide array of vendor-agnostic Software Defined Radios (SDRs). You will generate data and implement the test procedures to observe how the system performs, then document the results and communicate defects to the development team so they can resolve any functional or performance issues you find.
