• Proficiency in MATLAB or equivalent analytical tools.
• In-depth knowledge of EW systems or Communication systems analysis.
• Strong background in algorithm development, simulation, and documentation.
• Experience with Software Defined Radios and Digital Signal Processing.
• Proficiency in laboratory debug techniques using signal generators, digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, BERTS, and other complex measurement devices.
• Solid understanding of requirements analysis and management.
• Familiarity with code revision management tools such as Git.
• Exposure to digital filters, Forward Error Correction (FEC), FPGA design, Networking, and programming languages such as C, C++, and C#.

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree and minimum 9 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 7 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 13 years of prior related software engineering experience.

Preferred Additional Skills:

Areas of desired experience or education include:

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) with 9+ years of experience, Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) with 7+ years of experience, or PhD with 4+ years of experience required.
• Expertise in Electronic Support (ES) architecture and Electronic Attack Systems.
• Familiarity with communications systems architecture, particularly focusing on the physical layer.
• Experience with high-rate, satellite, and spread spectrum communication systems.
• Knowledge of LPD/AJ Systems, non-linear signal processing, MIMO, and Phased Array Processing.
• Proficiency in VHDL (preferred) or Verilog development languages.
• Experience implementing complex modem and/or DSP circuits SW or programmable logic using FPGA devices. Equivalent experience in ASIC design is also applicable.
• Proficiency in simulation, synthesis, and placement software tools such as ModelSim, Synplicity, Xilinx Vivado / ISE, and/or Altera Quartus development tools.
• Experience with Simulink
