Technical Lead

Lead the technical execution of advanced phased array product development programs for government and defense customers, focused on electronically steered antenna (ESA) and phased array technologies for SATCOM and radar applications. You will provide technical leadership across the full product lifecycle, from requirements and architecture through build, integration, verification, qualification and transition to production, serving as the primary technical focal point across systems, RF, antenna, digital, FPGA, software, mechanical, manufacturing and test engineering.

What You Will Do

• Lead multi functional engineering teams through development, integration, verification, qualification and production release of phased array products for SATCOM and radar
• Serve as the primary technical focal point between engineering, program management, manufacturing, supply chain and the customer
• Lead requirements development, system architecture trades, design reviews and technical decision making
• Drive technical planning, schedule execution, risk management and issue resolution across the product lifecycle
• Support subsystem and system level integration, including lab validation, field testing and customer demonstrations
• Manage technical risks, identify mitigations and drive issues to timely closure
• Work with suppliers and development partners on component selection, technology maturation and product realization
• Support manufacturing readiness, qualification, design for manufacturability and transition to production
• Communicate program status, technical risk and key achievements to engineering leadership, and contribute to the phased array product roadmap and future technology strategy

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of engineering in phased array, radar, SATCOM, RF systems, aerospace, defense or related technology development
• Developing phased array or electronically steered antenna systems for SATCOM or radar applications
• Demonstrated leadership of complex product development from concept through qualification and production
• Strong understanding of RF systems, antenna systems, digital beamforming and communication systems
• Systems engineering process work including requirements development, verification, validation and risk management
• Proven technical leadership across multidisciplinary engineering teams
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with strong problem solving and analytical skills
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics or a related technical field
• U.S. Government position. U.S. Citizenship required.
• Ability to obtain TS/SCI. TS/SCI already in hand is a plus.
