About the Team

These products generally operate in lower power and voltage ranges (less than 10kW and 1000V).

As a junior engineer on this team, you will work within a rigorous environment adhering to standards set by the Range Commanders Council, Federal Communications Commission, and the National Security Agency. Your day-to-day will involve performing make/buy trade studies, designing application-specific Printed Circuit Board Assemblies, and collaborating with leading industry suppliers of antennas, transmitters, encoders, and flight termination components.
