Radar Computer Engineer

Radiance is seeking a highly qualified and motivated engineer or scientist to serve as a Radar Computer Engineer on foreign air defense radar systems in support of Integrated Technical Evaluation and Analysis of Multiple Sources (ITEAMS) projects. The candidate will lead or support the ITEAMS Computer Subgroup to develop a comprehensive, scientific and technical intelligence understanding, assessment, and design of the foreign radar's computer, waveform generator, and algorithms associated with resource management, emission timing, response latency, prioritization, beam packing and location, turret control, duty cycle constraints, and mode transitions. The assessment and design will include:

• The computer processing power and memory required to run the software algorithms within the limitations of available computer hardware

• Computer hardware and software to include technical specifications

• The computer algorithms functions and implementations

• The waveform generator characteristics and performance consistent with the observed waveform emissions, operational modes, and potential wartime reserve waveforms

The candidate will ensure that the overall assessment and design are consistent with the design philosophy of the foreign designers and comparable and consistent with the assessed radar computer hardware technology during the radar's development timeframe.

Required Skills

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Engineering, Computer Science, or relevant technical field

• US citizenship with the ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI clearance with CI poly

• Able to perform exploratory analysis and research, and present results to both technical and non-technical audiences

• Effective interpersonal skills including the ability to collaborate successfully with other internal and external stakeholders

• Strong written and verbal communication skills with an ability to succinctly describe complex technical scenarios in simple, easily understood terms

• Strong analytic, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving skills

Required Experience

• Three or more years' experience with radar systems

• Previous experience characterizing radar systems based on incomplete information

• Experience with or extensive knowledge of radar computer design, modeling, and custom computer hardware/software components of modern radar systems

Desired Qualifications

• Active TS/SCI clearance with CI poly

• Previous ITEAMS experience

• Experience supporting US Government S&TI Centers
