Position Summary
Odyssey Systems has an exciting opportunity for a
Senior
Radar Engineer
providing support to the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC/HBD), Theater Battle Control Division. The Theater Battle Control Division manages efforts focused on developing, acquiring, fielding and sustaining programs that support worldwide communications, Battle Management, Command & Control, Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance (C2ISR), Tactical Air Control, Air/Ground Surveillance, Time Critical Targeting, Combat Identification, Radar Imagery, Integrated Air/Missile Defense, and Mobile/Fixed C2ISR Performance, Exploitation & Dissemination Facilities.
This is a full-time position located at Hanscom Air Force Base in Bedford, Massachusetts. Responsibilities
The Radar Engineer will provide specialized radar engineering expertise to support the design, operation, modernization, and sustainment of radar systems throughout the entire acquisition life cycle-from requirements analysis to system disposal. This role will involve performance evaluations, design analysis, modernization planning, and engineering support for both domestic programs and Foreign Military Sales. The candidate will contribute to system architecture, acquisition processes, and technical management to ensure mission readiness and capability enhancements. Duties include but not limited to: Radar System Engineering & Analysis
Develop design concepts, conduct performance evaluations, and analyze system metrics for radar systems. Provide technical expertise in evaluating design alternatives and advising on modernization sequencing and mission improvements.
Conduct system engineering analysis to assess aging hardware and recommend subsystem/component upgrades or modifications.
Identify optimal approaches for system upgrades, capability gap resolutions, and threat scenario validations.
Develop and validate radar performance, refine system requirements, and support regression testing.
Design & Architecture
Conduct and support engineering and technical activities through all acquisition phases (Material Solution Analysis, Technology Development, Engineering & Manufacturing Development, Production & Deployment, Operations & Support).
Prepare engineering documentation such as Analysis of Alternatives (AoA), Systems Engineering Plans (SEP), and related artifacts.
Participate in technical reviews, assessments, and interchange meetings (e.g., CDR, MRA, TIM).
Perform system design feasibility studies, architecture documentation, deficiency identification, and solution planning, including Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) processes.
Ensure interoperability and maintain baselined system architecture requirements.
Translate DoD user requirements into system specifications and provide engineering analysis of training equipment and simulator requirements.
Acquisition Support
Apply DoD acquisition and sustainment systems engineering processes across the product life cycle.
Prepare, review, and optimize program specifications, simulation models, MBSE outputs, and digital engineering analyses to enhance performance.
Support milestone reviews, certifications, and periodic reporting in compliance with DoD/USAF acquisition policy.
Review contractor drawings for completeness, accuracy, and compliance with ASME Technical Data Package standards.
Technical Management
Support requirements definition, architecture design, implementation, integration, verification/validation, risk management, and configuration management.
Conduct market research and trade studies to assess emerging systems against mission needs.
Evaluate system cost, schedule, and performance; perform root cause analyses, audits, and technical assessments.
Develop Test and Evaluation Master Plans (TEMP), test procedures, readiness reviews, and execute developmental testing.
Participate in integrated logistics support (ILS), provisioning, maintenance data collection, technical order management, and alternate sourcing for diminishing manufacturing/materiel sources (DMSMS).
Oversee radar circuit element design, development, and analysis.
