RF Systems and Test Electrical Engineer

RF Systems and Test Electrical Engineer

The Opportunity: 

As an electrical engineer, you understand the workings behind complex systems. That knowledge is key when it comes to designing and fielding radio systems. We’re looking for an electrical engineer who can use their skills to develop system designs; develop and execute test procedures for Analysis of Alternatives, components, sub-systems, and system to successfully field radio systems; and provide lab oversight to support technicians and installers.

 

At Booz Allen, you’ll use your engineering skills to transform both client-facing projects and internal product development. Our team develops systems using COTS/GOTS products with modifications and custom integration components and utilizes testing to confirm the delivered systems meet operational requirements. That’s why we need you, an electrical engineer, who specializes in Radio Systems and Radio Frequency (RF) design and testing to help us design and develop and test radio communication systems and products for internal and external customers.

 

On our team, you’ll assist with the definition of technical requirements, develop designs based on those requirements, be a part of the briefing team to communicate technical designs during design reviews, move from initial requirements all the way through component selection, testing, and documentation to final delivery and system testing. You’ll directly impact the Defense Industry by fielding systems on time that meet system performance requirements. We’ll look to you to share your electrical engineering expertise through leadership and mentoring junior staff. This is a chance to use your experience-based knowledge in radio systems and testing while broadening your skillset into areas like MIL-461 testing and fielding radio communication systems.

 

Take on exciting challenges in the Defense Industry with us as we improve warfighter communications.

 

Join us. The world can’t wait.
