Senior Low Observables Design & Integration Engineer - Pole Model

Key Responsibilities

• Lead detailed LO design and integration for the RCS pole model, including material selection, incorporation of advanced technologies, supplier hardware integration.
• Use computational electromagnetic solvers to model, analyze, and optimize radar cross section (RCS) and scattering behavior across required frequency bands and aspect angles in support of pre-test predictions and diagnostics.
• Work with Manufacturing to ensure proper alignment between design, analysis and fabrication of LO components.
• Define and support fabrication processes, QA checks, and build plans for LO skins, coatings, RAM treatments, and attachments; identify and mitigate manufacturability risks, provide LO liaison support to the shop.
• Develop and execute test plans for RCS characterization (anechoic chamber and outdoor ranges), including instrumentation, calibration, and measurement repeatability considerations.
• Prepare and execute data processing workflows to reduce, calibrate, and analyze measured RCS and related EM test data; combine simulation and measurement data for validation and design iteration.
• Produce clear technical documentation: design descriptions, analysis reports, test plans, test reports, procedures, and presentation materials for program reviews.
• Mentor junior engineers and support continuous improvement of LO design, test, and data processing practices.

Working Conditions and Physical Requirements

• Hands-on support in fabrication or test setups may be required.
• Will require travel to other company locations, supplier facilities, fabrication shops, and test ranges (including anechoic chambers and outdoor ranges).

• Demonstrated experience using computational electromagnetic solvers (e.g., FEKO, HFSS, CST, WIPL-D, CARLOS, SENTRI, XPATCH or equivalent) for design and optimization of LO systems and RCS predictions
• Strong understanding of electromagnetic principles relevant to scattering, phenomena, and Radar Cross Section
• Proven track record supporting fabrication and testing of LO components/assemblies and correlating measurements to models
• Proficiency in data processing and analysis of RCS/EM test data, including calibration, clutter and background rejection, and data visualization techniques
• Excellent technical writing skills with experience producing engineering reports, test plans, and test reports
• Active U.S. Top Secret Security Clearance
• Ability to obtain Special Program Access (U.S. Only Citizenship required)
