Responsibilities

The Radio Frequency (RF) and Sensor Systems Analyst serves as an RF and sensor‑related assessments supporting Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications (NC3) modernization and strategic deterrence missions. In this role, the analyst applies expert‑level knowledge of RF propagation, sensor phenomenology, signal characterization, and electromagnetic (EM) environment considerations to evaluate the performance, resilience, and operational suitability of RF and sensor systems across fixed, mobile, airborne, and space‑based platforms. The analyst provides authoritative technical guidance to modelers and system analysts, ensuring RF and sensor insights are accurately represented within system‑of‑systems models, mission‑level assessments, and analytical workflows, while not performing direct modeling activities.

The position includes leading evaluations of RF and sensor architectures to determine survivability, redundancy, and mission effectiveness in alignment with Department of War and United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) modernization objectives. The analyst develops test concepts and supports prototype evaluations, demonstrations, and experimentation activities designed to validate RF and sensor performance under realistic operational conditions. Additionally, the analyst prepares high‑quality technical reports, analytical findings, risk assessments, and senior‑leader decision‑support briefings. The role requires extensive coordination across USSTRATCOM directorates, Combatant Commands, and Department of War partner organizations to ensure RF and sensor requirements, modernization priorities, and technical activities remain synchronized across the enterprise.
