Successful candidates will specialize in Radio Frequency (RF) hardware and signal analysis associated with radar systems and transmission line design and development. This project supports the development of a wire / cable fault detection tool for the US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (CCDC), Aviation & Missile Center (AvMC), Engineering Directorate (ED). This position provides the opportunity for patentable work.

Must be comfortable with a hands-on approach building a frequency modulated continuous wave radar generator , using cables of various gauges, lengths and conditions, and analyzing transmission lines using signal processing techniques, high order analytical tools, high performance computer with a Linux operating system, Python, and MATLAB tools (or similar), to perform analysis determining, characterizing, locating, and predicting physical anomalies using a hand-held micro-controlled based device

This project is suitable for PhD candidates researching the use of transmission line / wave guide signal analysis for characterizing cable wire condition.

Responsibilities

• Provide engineering expertise in system design, development, and testing and evaluation
• Prepare and present briefings on analysis, current tasks, schedules, and goals
• Resolve technical issues through debugging, research, and investigation
• Demonstrate professional communication skills on a daily basis

Education Requirements : Bachelor's degree with 0-5+ years experience in appropriate related experience is mandatory. Master's degree from an accredited college / university in Electrical Engineering, or related technical field is preferred. Doctoral candidates are encouraged to apply. Experience may be considered in lieu of education.

Required Skills

• MATLAB tools (or similar data visualization tools) experience
• Perform transmission line analysis, design, and tuning to optimize signal to noise ratio (SNR)
• Integrate, test, and evaluate radar systems designs
• Familiarity with Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) is a PLUS
• Strong statistics experience, including non-parametric tests and advanced statistical analysis techniques
• Analysis determining, locating, characterizing, and predicting anomalies
• Signal processing techniques and expertise, including developing and implementing algorithms for Fast-Fourier Transform (FFT)
• Strong understanding of electromagnetics including transmission line theory
• Mandatory - Strong understanding of high frequency analysis
• Mandatory - Experience with standard RF test equipment (Network Analyzers, Spectrum Analyzers, RF Sources / Signal Generators [power meters], Oscilloscopes, breadboarding, Function Generators, Soldering)
• Mandatory - Experience with circuit design (e.g., LTSpice, Cadence) and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout and schematic capture software (e.g., KiCad, Eagle, Altium, Proteus, Diptrace, etc.)
• Experience in hands-on prototyping and circuit simulation
• Experience testing and documenting results, writing technical reports, and briefings
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Candidates must be able to obtain and maintain a SECRET security clearance

Desired Skills

• Experience with Python and / or other scripting languages
• Expertise with Machine Learning (ML) for predictive analytics
• Linux operating systems
• Microwave system design
• Embedded systems / microcontrollers
• Systems engineering
• C, C++, or other coding languages
• 3D modeling (SolidWorks, Fusion360, or other)
• Reverse engineering of electronics
