The Electro-Optics Department within the Hardware Directorate is currently searching for a
*** Sr. Principal Electro-Optical Subsystems Engineer
*** with experience in electro-optics. This candidate shall be able to perform a broad range of electro-optical (EO) subsystem engineering tasks related to infrared advanced missile seekers and guidance subsystems:  develop EO sensor system simulations and conduct analyses to characterize EO performance for developmental and production deliverable seeker assets based on laboratory data;  develop requirements and conduct requirement validation of EO subsystems based on analysis and/or testing;  

develop and conduct EO subsystem trade studies; work across multiple engineering disciplines including EO hardware design (detector, optics, cryogenic systems, opto-mechanical), video electronics, EO integration and verification, video signal processing, missile simulation and analysis, and system engineering to establish multi-disciplinary technical solutions for EO products which ensure design integrity and operational performance under all applicable environments.

Candidate will periodically lead small teams of 3-5 engineers and present technical information to program management, subject-matter experts, and government customers.
*
* What You Will Do:

** Candidate will work within a multi-disciplined team, as well as:
* Work independently, with little supervision.
* Develop a network and know when to use it to get help.
* Ensure proper engineering discipline is applied to all designs.
* Provide the best technical solution within cost and schedule constraints.
** Qualifications You Must Have:
*** Typically requires a Bachelor’s Degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 10 years of engineering experience with EO simulation, analysis, and/or hardware laboratory testing.
* Experience using Computer Analysis Tools (such as: Mat Lab, IDL, or MS Excel)
* Experience with EO hardware (such as: detectors, optics, cryogenic systems, gimbal platforms, video electronics or lasers)
* The ability to obtain and maintain a US security clearance. US citizenship is required as only US citizens are eligible for a security clearance.
** Qualifications We Prefer:
*** Experience with space-based EO subsystems
* Experience with missile EO products
* Good verbal, written and presentation skills
