Space Electromagnetic Warfare Systems Engineer (Senior Project Engineer - Communications Systems Engineering) As the Space Electromagnetic Warfare Systems Engineer you will provide communication systems engineering expertise for the United States Space Force (USSF) Space Operations Command Mission Delta 3. Mission Delta 3 is the USSF’s space electromagnetic warfare (EW) mission delta. You’ll help Mission Delta 3 in operational activities as well as define, acquire, verify, field, integrate, maintain, and refine USSF space EW warfighting capabilities while being cognizant of cost, schedule, technical performance, and risks. You’ll work with space EW systems such as the Counter Communications System (CCS), the Space Electromagnetic Warfare Operating Location (SEWOL), the Remote Modular Terminals (RMTs), and Bounty Hunter. As part of the space EW community, you’ll provide work to support operational activities and influence future capability needs.
The selected candidate will be required to work full-time, on-site at our facility in Peterson Space Force Base, CO.
What You’ll Be Doing
Provide technical expertise to develop and deliver operational insights into the Mission Delta 3 space EW systems
Ensure that Mission Delta 3 customers receive expert guidance in detailed discussions with both internal and external stakeholders
Provide communication systems expertise through mission analyses, specification of requirements, architectural trades, guidance on interface requirements, feedback on contractor design and development details, assessments of program risks and opportunities, system verification through testing and analysis, and fielding
Effectively work with members of Mission Delta 3, other government stakeholders, Aerospace, and other contractors
Take initiative to anticipate and be responsive to Mission Delta needs
Communicate clearly, concisely, and professionally in reports and briefings with government stakeholders and Aerospace management on plans, progress, and system details
