Job Description
Because this role involves a combination of collaborative/in-person and independent work, it will take the form of a hybrid work format, with time split between working onsite and remotely.
See what you're missing. Our employees work on the world's most advanced electronics - from detecting threats for F-35 pilots to illuminating the night for soldiers. Spanning air, land, sea, and space, we are developing the technology of tomorrow, delivered today. Drawing strength from our differences, we're innovating for the future. And you can, too. Our flexible work environment provides you a chance to change the world without giving up your personal life. We put our customers first - exemplified by our mission: "We Protect Those Who Protect Us®." Sound like a team you want to be a part of? Come build your career with BAE Systems.
Our engineers are the lifeblood of our company and we're more than 5,000 strong. With our robust offering of educational and career development opportunities, your chances to grow are limitless.
BAE Systems seeks a Senior Principal Electrical Engineer with Microelectronics experience to lead RF / Microwave module design of Broadband, High Power GaN / GaAs amplifiers as well as manage the execution of the amplifier projects. The candidate will lead design project teams to assess requirements, provide accurate cost and schedule assessments, develop compliant amplifier designs, meet Design To Unit Production Cost (DTUPC) targets, conduct thorough design reviews, validate amplifier performance, specify test requirements, identify critical processes, transition the design to full rate production, and support the product through its lifecycle ("OWN" the product). The candidate will be the primary point of contact for engineering execution of the product and interface with internal or external customers. As such, the ability to assess and draw conclusions from technical data and develop, implement, and manage planned activities to closure is essential. Design responsibilities include the RF circuit design required to execute the amplifier design and predict performance, as well as project production yield versus the specifications using various RF / Microwave design tools. This candidate will work closely across functions between Engineering, Operations / Manufacturing, Test Engineering, and Product Producibility and Launch (P2L) in an Integrated Product Team (IPT) environment.
