  • Collaborate with the team to define goals, performance objectives, requirements, metrics, dependencies, and risks.
  • Design, simulate, and test RF hardware systems with an emphasis on system integration, test, and verification.
  • Perform trade studies and performance analyses of proposed hardware architectures.
  • Conduct performance analysis through simulations and real-world testing to validate system performance.
  • Build, bench-test, integrate, calibrate, and demonstrate system performance.
  • Work with the signal processing team on sensing system test concepts and execution methods.
  • Plan and implement over-the-air system tests and demonstrations, including readiness evaluation, metric development, requirements verification, configuration management, and data management.
