Standard Job DescriptionWe are growing rapidly and seeking an experienced, hands-on Electro-Optical (EO) Engineer who is passionate about EO modeling and can apply strong analytical and problem-solving skills to develop optimized solutions for complex challenges.
What you will be doing:Your skill set should include exposure to physics-based modeling, passive system design, and/or algorithm development.
Experience with threat signature modeling is highly valued.
Although this is a technical contributor role, the EO Engineer must be able to communicate analysis at the appropriate level to a diverse audience including other technical experts, customers, and senior management.
Understanding of modern US defense systems specifically focused on EO/IR
Basic QualificationsCandidate must demonstrate the ability to perform the following Electro-Optical Engineering assignments:
- Demonstrated knowledge or experience with EO systems that include of advanced optical/infrared material and coatings.
- Demonstrated knowledge or experience in radiometric EO analysis and simulation and/or laser beam propagation modeling.
- Ability to perform design and analysis of EO candidate systems for both ground and airborne sensor suite applications.
- Ability to define and/or access and utilize target threat signatures in EO modeling.
- Ability to utilize MATLAB when running EO performance analysis simulations or developing target models.
- Ability to conduct parametric studies to support advanced EO targeting sensor and seeker development.
- Ability to model design solutions that can be fabricated for laboratory test and characterization prior to development, including development of test setups and procedures.
- Ability to support the design and specification of instrumentation for integrated system level tower and field testing.
- Ability to take initiative within assigned tasks, ask clarifying questions when needed, and reliably follow through on commitments under the guidance of more experienced engineers.
- Must be a US Citizen as a Interim Clearance is needed to start.
Desired Skills- Experience with IR systems trades, performance analysis, and traceability / performance link budgets
- Knowledge of industry tools: MATLAB, MathCAD, MODTRAN6
- Characterization of laser systems (pulse energy, divergence, beam profiles), measurement of TPMs, and designing test procedures
- Modeling threat signatures given GFI data, or modeling engagement scenarios and associated parameters
- System level modeling experience- integration with pointing systems, LOS accuracy / Algo performance budgets, requirements/digital engineering activities.
- Current TS/SCI Clearance
