Hardware Engineering provides Electrical Engineering expertise to develop electronic solutions across the Raytheon portfolio. We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to support the design, development, integration, test, and/or production of complex Radio Frequency (RF) products and/or systems.

This role requires a self-driven engineer with strong technical leadership, organizational discipline, and communication skills who excels in a fast-paced, budget- and schedule-critical environment. The selected candidate will support and/or lead efforts that could range from concept development through integration and production while solving complex technical challenges.

You will collaborate closely with Systems, Mechanical, Digital, Power, Test, Operations, Supply Chain, Quality, and/or external suppliers to deliver high-performance RF solutions that meet mission and customer requirements.

What You Will Do

Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, the following. Specific duties will vary based on department, program assignment and business needs.

Architect, design, and develop RF hardware such as: RF components (MMICs, amplifiers, filters, couplers, oscillators, manifolds, radiators) Transmitters, receivers, exciters Seekers, Active Electronically Steered Antennas (AESAs), antennas, radomes Radar and RF subsystems Lead hardware efforts across different parts of the product lifecycle: R&D, design, qualification, transition to production, production, and/or depot support Perform component, circuit, and/or subsystem-level analysis, simulation, and trade studies Integrate and test RF components and/or subsystems in laboratory and production environments Develop test procedures and plans; execute Design Verification Testing (DVT) and qualification testing; document results Simulate and model electromagnetic (EM) phenomena using industry-standard tools Oversee material delivery, build activities, and hardware test execution Conduct failure analysis, root cause investigations, and implement corrective actions Ensure technical performance, cost, and schedule alignment Provide technical management and oversight of suppliers, including interfacing on design, build, deliveries, and issue resolution Escalate risks appropriately and coordinate Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) as needed Maintain and generate technical documentation in accordance with program and compliance requirements

Qualifications You Must Have:

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 3 years experience. Experience with one or more of the following: RF hardware simulation, design, fabrication, integration, test, supplier support, and/or production support RF subsystem/system requirements development and validation Experience with electromagnetic simulation tools such as HFSS, ADS, CST, Mentor Graphics Xpedition and analytical tools such as Matlab. Strong hands-on experience with RF test equipment (e.g., spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, phase noise analyzers, and/or antenna measurement systems)

Qualifications We Value:

Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to diagnose and resolve electrical issues in complex systems. Strong analytical and critical thinking skills. Communication Skills: Ability to clearly communicate technical information to non-technical stakeholders. Strong written and verbal communication skills.
