- Support field operations, system installations, testing, troubleshooting, maintenance, and sustainment of SIGINT/EW systems aboard naval platforms
- Analyze system performance and troubleshoot hardware, software, network, and system-level issues to identify root causes and develop appropriate corrective actions.
- Support Linux-based engineering and operational environments used for system development, integration, testing, and deployment.
- Conduct technical research and evaluate hardware and software technologies to identify lifecycle and obsolescence risks and support development of appropriate technology-refresh and replacement strategies.
- Develop and maintain engineering and technical documentation supporting system configuration, operation, testing, troubleshooting, deployment, and lifecycle sustainment.
- Collaborate with software, RF, systems, test, and other engineering disciplines to support system development, integration, and operational requirements.
- Provide technical direction and guidance to less experienced personnel and support the training and professional development of junior engineering and technical staff.
