Job Number 692032BR
Description:Come join the Lockheed Martin Space Radio Frequency (RF) Talent Center team and shape the future! You can join our mission and contribute to challenging programs in support of Space Vehicles, Hypersonics, Human Space Flight and Interplanetary Missions, Missile Defense, and more.
Do you want to be part of a dynamic, fast-moving, high-performance team that's creating a best-in-class team culture, all while quickly adapting to ever-changing customer requirements?
In this exciting role and opportunity, you will contribute to the design and analysis of Antenna Feed, RF Reflector, and Electronically Steered Antenna (ESA) solutions for Space Vehicles, Missiles, and Terrestrial platforms. Our Antenna and ESA product portfolio includes a wide range of projects addressing the critical needs of commercial, civil, and government customers
The RF Talent Center is seeking an experienced RF RFIC and MMIC design engineer to lead the development of new technology for Electronically Steerable Array (ESA) Payloads. This position requires proficiency in RF microwave design using discrete, MMIC, and RFIC circuits in hermetic modules in high reliability applications with subject matter expert level knowledge of MMIC and RFIC design and fabrication processes and suppliers.
As an experienced RF Engineer, you will lead ESA MMIC design efforts across all aspects of production and test verification lifecycle. You will tackle the most challenging RF assignments and demonstrate a detailed understanding of your hardware and mission to satisfy both internal and external stakeholders. This role will work closely with other leaders and Subject Matter Experts to manage supplier production and test risks and opportunities. The selected candidate will also work closely with customers to ensure the success of MMIC product deliveries and milestones. In addition, the selected candidate will have opportunities to participate in ESA Design & Analysis efforts across product engineering, analysis, calibration and verification from capture to design to production and operationalization.
This position emphasizes "systems thinking" throughout the life-cycle of payloads, subsystems, and RF and Antenna components.
Successful applicants will typically possess 9 years of professional experience with a minimum education level of Bachelors degree from an accredited college in a related discipline (electrical engineering or STEM related degree/certification), or equivalent experience/combined education
Basic Qualifications:
Skill Requirements:
• RF circuit analysis, using tools such as Agilent ADS (Advanced Design System), Ansys HFSS (High Frequency Structure Simulator), AWR Microwave Office, or similar tool packages.
• Knowledge of RF/mmWave SiP/MMIC design, layout and simulation techniques
• Practical knowledge of RF/mmWave Integrated circuit (IC) characterization and measurement equipment and techniques
• Practical knowledge of calibration methods
• Detailed knowledge of RF design tools such as HFSS, CST MW Studio, FEKO, ADS, Microwave Office, SystemVue, Cadence, Zuken or Altium Designer, MATLAB, LabVIEW, etc.
• Subject Matter Expert in the area of RFIC and MMIC Design, characterization and modeling of circuits using S parameters, circuit layout and test using bench-top microwave equipment including spectrum and network analyzers
• Demonstrated experience in RF modeling and simulation
• Effective written and verbal communication skills and proficiency with MS Office tools
Security Clearance / Work Authorization Requirements:
• To meet requirements of the program/customer, this position requires the selected applicant to be a U.S. Citizen
• Although not required to start, applicants must be eligible to obtain a US government issued Top Secret security clearance.
Desired Skills:
• A thorough understanding of semiconductor physics and various semiconductor processes
• Requirements analysis, decomposition and flow down of RF payloads
• Deep understanding in RF/mmWave transceiver specification and able to work with system architects to translate system requirement into circuit requirement at SiP or SoC level
• Experience designing active components, such as Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) , hybrids, Linearized Traveling Wave Tube Amplifiers (LTWTAs), Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs), Oscillators, frequency converters, etc.
• 10+ years of working experience in RF/mmWave SiP/MMIC
• Demonstrated product level development successes in the RF/mmWave SiP/MMIC, particularly with integrating low noise amplifiers, mixers, phase shifters, gain blocks, variable gain amplifiers, switches, power amplifiers, and power detectors.
• Willingness to travel on a limited basis for vendor oversight and customer interaction
• Excellent interpersonal, teamwork and documentation skills
• Active DoD Top Secret Clearance
Security Clearance Statement: This position requires a government security clearance, you must be a US Citizen for consideration.
