Senior RF/Spectrum Engineer

Pay Rate: $60.09 per hr. during initial six-month contract term. Negotiable upon conversion.

Location: 100% on-site – Egg Harbor Township, NJ

We are seeking a Sr. Principal RF/Spectrum Systems Engineer to support Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (CUAS) engineering for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). In this high-impact role, you will lead the research, testing, evaluation, and spectrum analysis of cutting-edge UAS detection and mitigation technologies in active airport environments.

This position uniquely bridges hands-on RF engineering, advanced systems analysis, and national policy development—directly influencing future FAA Advisory Circulars and aviation safety standards.

Key Responsibilities

RF & Radar Engineering

  • Lead radar testing across L, S, C, X, Ku, and Ka frequency bands using FMCW, pulse Doppler, and other waveforms (including Phased Array antenna technologies).
  • Lead testing of mitigation devices operating in other frequency bands (VHF/UHF/Microwave).
  • Conduct precise RF measurements (power, gain, EIRP, spectrum occupancy) and evaluate electromagnetic compatibility (EM/EMC) for spectral compliance.
  • Perform near-field and far-field antenna range measurements in controlled or operational environments.

CUAS Research, Testing & Evaluation (RD/T&E)

  • Conduct rigorous spectrum interference testing at active airports prior to CUAS deployment.
  • Develop, execute, and oversee detailed test plans, test cards, and structured evaluation frameworks.
  • Manage vendor systems during deployment, troubleshooting, data collection, and teardown.
  • Establish selection criteria for UAS platforms used in evaluations, alongside performance metrics and pass/fail criteria.
  • Document all RD/T&E activities to contribute to FAA guidance on the selection, procurement, deployment, and management of CUAS systems as well as RF-specific measurement equipment.

Systems Engineering & Strategic Policy

  • Conduct thorough RF hazard analyses and safety assessments prior to open-air testing.
  • Translate complex RD/T&E data into performance specification frameworks using modeling, simulation, and analysis tools to shape FAA Advisory Circulars.
  • Utilize technical data tools to model and analyze spectrum environments and system capabilities.
  • Create multi-airport CUAS operational recommendations and best practices aligned with FAA Safety Risk Management (SRM) principles.

Qualifications

Required:

  • Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electrical, Aerospace, Systems, Mechanical (preferred) or other technical discipline. Non-U.S. degrees must be ABET accredited.
  • 10+ years of progressive engineering experience in RF, radar, or spectrum management.
  • Proven experience using spectrum analyzers and other equipment to test, evaluate and characterize complex RF devices and environments for FCC/NTIA compliance.
  • Demonstrated success in conducting open-air RF/spectrum data collection.
  • Ability to evaluate the functional capabilities of complex technologies with minimal supervision.
  • Highly collaborative with strong technical writing and presentation skills for both technical and non-technical audiences with teams including other disciplines.
  • Ability to independently plan and deliver projects with high-quality, on-time results.
  • Proficiency with MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Physical ability to lift up to 25 lbs. during field deployments.
  • Ability to obtain an FAA Suitability clearance and maintain a valid U.S. passport.

Preferred:

  • Direct experience developing or executing structured test plans for aviation or defense technologies.
  • Proficiency with data analysis and visualization tools (e.g., MATLAB, Python, JMP, or advanced Excel).
  • Familiarity with FAA Safety Risk Management (SRM) principles or airport operations.
