• Experience with Computational Electromagnetic Codes (CEM)
• Experience performing RCS measurement/testing, prediction, and/or design
• The ability to obtain and maintain a US security clearance prior to the start date. U.S. citizenship is required as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance 
   

Qualifications We Value**:**

• Fifteen (15) years of engineering experience, to include Low Observable (LO) technology 
• Multiple tests of LO targets on ground plane ranges and compact ranges
• Absorber material treatments / design and testing experience (coatings, paint, MAGRAM)
• Academic or applied experience utilizing RF testing techniques, terminology, and test equipment
• Understanding of electromagnetic fundamentals
• Experience with Infrared signature analysis and control
• Experience in the field of infrared signature technology is desirable
• Programming expertise in C++, MATLAB, or other technical language is desirable
• Advanced radar system development or test experience
• Presentation skills and ability to communicate with peers, executives and customers
• Working knowledge of computational electromagnetic codes  to include full wave codes, as well as asymptotic techniques using industry standard tools such as XPATCH or SENTRi
• Advanced Degree:  Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Math or other Engineering discipline
