Leidos currently has an exciting opening for a signatures modeling engineer to work in our Beavercreek office in the greater Dayton, OH area.

As a Signatures Modeling Engineer, you will apply your skills and critical thinking to a wide variety of signature modeling programs supporting AFRL, NASIC, LCMC, and other customer agencies. You will run state of the art signature prediction codes, like Xpatch and SENTRi on airborne and ground-based vehicle models to generate highly accurate signature models. You will also create custom signature prediction tools and perform special analyses in support of critical customer mission areas. This job offers a unique ability to collaborate directly with the creators of industry standard tools such as Xpatch as well as others (SENTRi, etc.). We are looking for a qualified candidate to bring technical excellence, leadership, entrepreneurship, and creativity to our programs. You will interact with customers, participate in, and lead technical projects areas, and pursue growth in new areas. This position requires most job duties to be performed onsite due to the sensitive nature of this work and the desire for in-person collaboration, however we offer flexible in-office hours and the ability to perform some job duties remotely.

Verify and validate measured data and computational electromagnetic (CEM) predictions
Create signature predictions using CEM prediction software (SENTRi, Xpatch, COMSOL, CST, HFSS, Feko, etc.)
Write and present technical information related to development activities

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree with experience in Electrical Engineering or a closely related scientific field such as Physics, Optics, Engineering Physics, etc.
US citizen
Must have an active Secret clearance with the ability to obtain a TS/SCI clearance
Proficient understanding of applied electromagnetics with skills in EM modeling and experimentation and interest in continuous learning
Adept in CEM prediction software and proven history of applying simulation tools to characterize EM phenomenology
Good communication skills and a willingness and interest to collaborate in an interdisciplinary team environment to drive towards overall project and team objectives
Demonstrated abilities in technical writing, documentation, and organization
Ability to work as a team member
Solid attention to detail and deadlines

Preferred Qualifications

Master’s / PhD
Radar Cross Section (RCS) design familiarity
Knowledge of antenna design principals, array technology, frequency selective surfaces, and/or radome design principles
