The ideal candidate will have a strong background in experimentation and the scientific method, having designed and carried out experiments and test plans, as well as a strong background in RF and electromagnetic theory, simulation, and correlating theoretical and simulated predictions with experimentally measured results.
This position offers a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of quantum technology, contributing to the advancement of groundbreaking solutions in the rapidly evolving field of quantum computing.

Support the development of several platforms based around the application of classical and quantum photonics to tactical RF systems as an RF/Systems engineer.
Evaluate critical component performance via board-level and system-level lab testing (LNAs, HPAs, filters, couplers, mixing blocks, etc.)
Work with hardware engineers, mechanical engineers, and quantum scientists during various phases of lab testing.
Evaluate, design, or simulate custom RF antenna apertures, microwave and photonic structures, and devise methods to fabricate and experimentally verify performance.
Maintain documentation expected at milestone events during the entire design cycle (theory of operations, manufacturing documentation, validation testing results, etc.)
Perform integration testing to validate system performance.
Bachelor of Science (BS) in Physics, Engineering Physics, RF Engineering, or Electrical Engineering from an accredited university.
Experience with at least one computational EM solver (Ansys HFSS, CST Microwave Studio, FEKO, AWG Microwave Office, or others) as well as understanding of the underlying mathematics of various simulation methods (MoM, FDTD, FEM) and their strengths and limitations.
Strong foundation in PCB and antenna design related to DFM, DFT, and DFA best practices.
Strong electrical engineering fundamentals in Analog, Power, and Digital Electronics.
Experience with microwave network design and optimization.
Experience in hardware production, quality verification, analyzing variability and determining tolerances.
Hands-on experience with tuning, testing, troubleshooting, and integration with lab instruments such as: DMMs, Oscilloscopes, Vector Network Analyzers, and Spectrum Analyzers.
Software knowledge across C, C++, MATLAB/Octave, or Python.
DoD Security Clearance, or ability to obtain one, required.
Master of Science (MS) degree in Applied Physics, RF Engineering, or Electrical Engineering.
Experience designing integrated electronics, LNAs, mode forming networks, etc.
Experience with RF analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronics.
Experience with quantum sensing.
Proficiency in RF performance validation in anechoic chambers.
Solid background in signal processing, communication theory, and link analysis.
Experience with manual board prototyping/refurbing using essential equipment like soldering irons and hot air guns.
