We are seeking a Level 4 Senior Staff RF Engineer with a strong systems engineering focus to lead the architecture, analysis, and optimization of advanced RF systems for radar and communication applications. This role will require the ability to derive complete RF system budgets, assess and manage key performance parameters such as phase noise, CPCR (Clutter Power to Carrier Ratio), CA (Coherent Ambiguity), and more, while collaborating across engineering disciplines to ensure system performance exceeds mission requirements. Define and develop RF system architectures for radar and advanced sensing applications. Derive and maintain RF link/system budgets including gain, noise figure, dynamic range, and spurious performance. Model and predict phase noise, CPCR, CA, spurious suppression, and related RF performance metrics. Conduct trade studies and system optimization to balance performance, cost, and schedule. Work closely with hardware, firmware, DSP, and mechanical teams to ensure full system-level alignment. Perform root cause analysis of system performance issues and recommend design changes. Generate and maintain high-quality documentation for requirements, budgets, analysis reports, and verification plans. considers factors including (but not limited to) the role and associated responsibilities, location, and market and business considerations, as well as the candidate's work experience, key skills, and education/training.
