Job summary

RTX seeks a senior hardware/firmware engineer in the US Northeast to design and verify radar receiver and exciter subsystems. You will build data analysis tools and collaborate with hardware, firmware, software, and systems engineers to solve complex verification challenges.

Role involves on-site work in multiple MA sites, hands-on testing, and potential AI/ML tooling development. Requires 8+ years in related fields and ability to obtain an Interim Secret clearance.

Qualifications

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 8 years of prior relevant experience.
• 5+ years’ experience in two or more of the following areas: Radar system or subsystem integration, verification, and validation.
• 5+ years’ experience in two or more of the following areas: Programming in MATLAB or C/C++.
• 5+ years’ experience in two or more of the following areas: Microwave/RF system, subsystem, and/or Circuit Card Assembly design or test.
• The ability to obtain and maintain an Interim Secret U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to start date.

Responsibilities

• Perform Receiver/Exciter hardware, software, and firmware design verification tests across multiple radar bands and programs.
• Resolve complex technical issues seen during design, integration, and test of Radar Receiver and Exciter sub-systems.
• Build data analysis tools that give engineers and technicians answers faster - and eventually, building AI/ML tools do some of the heavy lifting.
• Work directly with hardware designers, firmware developers, software and systems engineers - you'll need to speak all four languages.
• Hands on hardware test and troubleshooting.
• Write, use, and maintain software that controls, tests, and characterizes real radar hardware - from module level all the way to system integration.
• Interface directly with program engineering, production, and systems teams.
