Key Responsibilities:

• Serve as an engineer supporting the AN/SPY-1 Signal Processor subsystem across all radar variants (D, D(V), D(MOD)).
• Participate in efforts to analyze and document the design and functional behavior of legacy signal processor components, including digital processing modules, interface cards, and timing assemblies.
• Support design recovery and traceability efforts, working from GFI, limited technical data, or harvested hardware.
• Define and support the development of prototype subassemblies, repair processes, and test capabilities to validate organic sustainment approaches.
• Develop and validate functional test procedures, signal flow diagrams, and performance benchmarks.
• Identify critical components at risk due to obsolescence, and support alternate part qualification, reverse engineering, or redesign as necessary.
• Coordinate with systems engineers, test engineers, and OEM partners to ensure alignment with weapon system interface requirements and mission-critical timing/data processing functionality.
• Provide technical input to Integrated Technical Data Packages (ITDPs), depot stand-up planning, and operator/maintainer training materials.
• Ensure test and repair processes comply with NAVSEA and METCAL standards where applicable.
