- Perform detailed trade off analyses on power, efficiency, noise figure, linearity, thermal behavior, reliability, and packaging constraints
- Coordinate simulation, prototyping, laboratory validation, and environmental qualification of TRM designs across development milestones
- Work with antenna, RF, mechanical, thermal, power, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless module integration into array assemblies
- Drive root cause analysis and corrective actions for performance deviations, failures, yield issues, or reliability concerns observed during testing or production
- Support supplier interaction, component evaluation, obsolescence mitigation, and configuration management for critical RF and microwave devices
- Provide technical leadership in reviews, verification strategies, and roadmap activities related to phased array transmit/receive technologies
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Telecommunications, Electronics Engineering, Microwave Engineering, or related discipline
- 7+ years of experience in RF / microwave design, with direct exposure to T/R modules, AESA architectures, or phased array subsystems
- Strong understanding of transmit and receive chains, phase and gain control, low noise design, high power amplification, switching, and control interfaces
- Experience with RF simulation, laboratory characterization, and troubleshooting of integrated microwave assemblies
- Knowledge of thermal management, packaging, reliability, and manufacturability considerations in dense high frequency modules
- Ability to lead complex technical workstreams and coordinate multidisciplinary interfaces in demanding development programs
- Prior experience in radar or defense electronics programs is highly desirable
