Top Secret At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today's mission and stay ahead of tomorrow's threat. Our team solves tough, meaningful problems that create a safer, more secure world.

The Advanced Effector Guidance Systems (AEGS) Department within Raytheon Hardware Engineering provides Electrical Systems Engineering to develop Electronic Systems solutions for products across the Raytheon portfolio. Our core electrical engineering responsibilities include architecture, requirements, integration, and test. Our core electrical engineering technologies include RF/RADAR, Navigation/IMU/GPS, Digital, and Power. We partner with several Electrical Product Team departments that provide the detailed design of our electrical products as well as systems teams.

The AEGS Department is searching for a Sr. Principal Common Guidance Section (GS) Global Positioning System (GPS) Lead . The role of the Common GS GPS Lead is to provide GPS electronics solution for effectors. GPS electronics solution includes architecture development, requirement definition, electronics design, analysis, modelling and testing. The GPS Lead collaborates with missile level system engineers in developing requirements for the subsystem.

They perform analysis and modeling to decompose requirements for GPS sub-assemblies and component designs.

What you will do:

* Be responsible for the technical integrity of the GPS in the Common GS

* Manage the technical risk for the GPS

* Technical oversight of GPS failure investigations

* Support GPS design and test reviews

* Work environment is primarily in an office, but may include labs, field work, or a combination.

* Assignments may include analysis of hardware designs, subsystems, and components; architecting new electronic systems; developing and documenting subsystem requirements and test plans; peer reviews of designs as a subject matter expert; presentations to peers, management, and government customers; and root-cause failure investigations.

* Interface directly with suppliers of navigation or guidance electronics components, IMUs and GPSs, to monitor and manage programmatic activities and ensure compliance to requirements

* May require some travel, including foreign travel.

* Work within a multi-disciplined team.

* Develop a network and know when to use it to get help.

* Raytheon has a strong culture of mentoring; it is expected that employees will be both mentors and mentees.

* Collaboration with both Functional and Program higher level leadership.

* Collaboration with Customer and Suppliers. Qualifications You Must Have:
* Typically requires a bachelor's degree in science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 10 years of prior relevant experience developing RF electrical subsystems, specifically GPS

* Experience with electrical hardware development; specifically experience in sub-systems, systems engineering, requirement development and/or requirement validation

* Active and transferable U.S. government issued Top Secret security clearance is required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance. Qualifications We Value:
* Familiarity with Hypersonics

* Advanced degree in engineering, mathematics, physics, or related engineering degree.

* Missile Radar and RF seeker subsystems typically contain antennas, analog RF circuit cards, digital circuit cards, and configurable logic so the ideal candidate will have a background in detailed design and troubleshooting of one or more of these components. Ideal candidates will also have some experience in systems engineering and architecture

* Ideal candidates shall also have demonstrated understanding and wide application of technical theories and concepts in the area of navigation subsystems/components used in modern guidance electronics platforms

* Recent technical experience relative to integrated Guidance Electronics systems using GPS and IMU navigation subsystems blended via Kalman filter techniques

* Knowledge and/or experience with M-Code

* Familiarity with Matlab scripting and tools

* Experience with hardware integration, Hardware in the Loop (HIL), modeling and simulation and environmental testing and electronics test equipment

* Experience working with missiles or similar systems.

* Ability to lead…
