Description
Leidos is a FORTUNE 500 company bringing a mix of innovative technology and sector expertise to customers in the national security, engineering, and the health industries.
Dynetics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Leidos, is seeking a talented mid-level Electrical or Computer Engineer to join a diverse team creating unique solutions for complex radar system problems. Dynetics provides responsive, cost-effective engineering, scientific, and IT Solutions engaging in the defense, space, cyber, and commercial fields.
This position is for a mid-level electrical or computer engineer within the Flight Systems Department as part of the Missile & Aviation Systems Division. Engineers in the Flight Systems Department provide solutions to complex, technical problems involving analysis, design, flight testing and/or autonomous solutions of various types of radars, missiles, space systems, hypersonics, acquisition systems, fixed & rotary wing aircraft, and more.
Engineers in this position work on design and analysis of various components of ground-based or air-based radar systems.
Candidates must be a resident of North Alabama area or willing to relocate to work on-site at the Huntsville, AL office.
Responsibilities:
Areas of focus within this line of work include, but are not limited to:
Antennas and Transmit/Receive Modules
Transmitters
Receivers and Exciters
