Sr. Radar Systems Engineer

About the Team

At Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems, we tackle the most demanding challenges in the world, seeking innovative ideas and creative solutions for seemingly impossible problems. Within the Sensors, Effectors & Mission Systems (SEMS) organization, we collaborate with the best Radar engineers across our Moorestown, NJ, and Syracuse, NY sites to invent solutions where they don't yet exist.

Our Radar Systems Engineering team brings together engineers and Sensor Architects from diverse backgrounds and experience levels. We work collectively to deliver quality designs and cutting-edge capabilities to a broad array of customers, including the Missile Defense Agency, US Navy, Air Force, US Army, Space Force, and international partners such as Japan, Canada, Spain, Norway, Australia, and the UK.

About the Role

As a Sensor Systems Architect, you will join a team of the brightest minds in the world to support the architecture, design, Concept of Operations, requirements development, analysis, and implementation of high-performance Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar systems. This role exists to drive radar capability implementation across subsystems by defining radar behavior and developing associated requirements.

You will thrive in a dynamic, multi-disciplinary environment where the hard work is the fun part. Your day will involve conducting trade studies to analyze system-level performance impacts, developing detailed design documentation, and collaborating with subsystem teams to define clear, executable approaches for meeting mission success criteria. You will also represent the organization on contracts, interfacing with internal and external customers, program leadership, and senior leadership on significant technical matters.

If you are a lifelong learner with a passion for driving technology forward, this is the place for you. You will apply your expertise to advance sensor architectures, staying ahead of ever-evolving customer needs across a broad array of environments and threat spaces.
