Successful candidates will bring deep expertise in one or more communications disciplines-such as communication theory and signal processing, RF systems, antenna and phased-array systems, digital communications and processing, or communications software-combined with the technical breadth and systems perspective necessary to lead the complete solution. Experience with space, airborne, defense, or other high-reliability communication systems is preferred, particularly involving satellite communications, phased arrays, software-defined radios, digital beamforming, advanced waveforms, or integrated communication payloads.
