That's why we're here. Electrophysics Engr/Scien 4 -Propulsion Signature Integ Engr Position Description Advanced Global Strike Systems, located in St. Louis, Missouri (MO), is seeking a proactive, mid-level Signature Integration Engineer with strong analytical, design, and integration skills for a special project. This position is responsible for design, analysis and integration of propulsion design features, such as, the air induction system, the environmental control system, the exhaust system, and the auxiliary power systems. Candidate must have a strong understanding of the fundamentals of radar cross section, its design techniques and develop solutions that are affordable, robust, supportable, and meet the needs of the next generation of air systems. Candidate must have a good understanding of propulsion design, thermodynamics, materials and processes, structures, manufacturing, and supportability. Candidate must have a strong analytical/design background especially in using material stack analysis, 2D and 3D Method-of-Moments (MOM), 3D Physical Optics/Physical Theory Diffraction (PO/PTD), and geometry/grid generation tools. The ability to use Boeing/Industry standard tools ISIS, CARLOS, CADDSCAT, and Mr_Patches/Hypermesh is a plus. The ability to write/debug tools using MathCAD, Visual Studio, and/or FORTRAN is a plus. The ability to use Unigraphics NX4 or similar Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tool is required. Candidate must be able to lead/perform trade studies with multiple Integrated Product Teams (IPT) and work together to come up with an integrated solution. Candidate must have experience in indoor and outdoor Infrared (IR) and Radar Cross Section (RCS) range testing of coupons, components, and systems. Experience performing dynamic testing of Low Observable (LO) propulsion systems is a plus. Candidate having experience with writing supplier Request for Information/Request for Procurement (RFI/RFP), coordinating/managing supplier tasks, and inspecting supplier products before delivery is a plus. Candidate should have the ability to communicate clearly and effectively in both written and verbal formats, as well as, present programmatic and technical briefings to communicate status, plans and issues to internal/external customers.

Establishes and maintains good working relationships by actively involving less experienced employees and/or other project team leaders and external customers and helping them feel valued, appreciated, and included in discussions. Places higher priority on team and organization goals than on own goals. Offers to provide assistance and/or project team leadership to other teams and/or employees when doing so would benefit the organization. [ + ] Communication Consistently clarifies purpose and importance; stresses major points; follows a logical sequence. Consistently keeps the audience thoroughly engaged through use of techniques such as analogies, illustrations, humor, an appealing style, body language, and voice inflection. Consistently frames even complex messages in line with audience experience, background, and expectations; uses terms, examples, and analogies that are meaningful to the audience. Consistently seeks input from audience; checks understanding; presents message in different ways to enhance understanding. Uses syntax, pace, volume, diction, and mechanics appropriate to the media being used; attends to both direct and indirect messages from others; correctly interprets messages and responds appropriately. Advises fellow project leads and other internal employees in effective communication techniques.Technical [ + ] Analytical Skills Skill and ability to: collect, organize, synthesize, and analyze data; summarize findings; develop conclusions and recommendations from appropriate data sources with clients, customers and/or suppliers. [ + ] EM Modeling and Analysis Extensive and specialized knowledge of electromagnetic theory and advanced mathematics to develop and apply analytic tools to model and analyze electromagnetic aspects of systems and components. Knowledge of software development tools and techniques; numerical computation; model development; analysis techniques, processes, methods, and tools; optimization techniques; and post-processing and interpretation of resulting data. [ + ] Electromagnetic Theory Extensive and specialized knowledge of electromagnetic field, circuit theory, and wave propagation. Knowledge of interaction of electromagnetic waves with materials and geometries in a variety of mediums. Mediums include natural (such as rain, solar flares, dust, temperature) and man made environments (such as radar, broadcast stations, nuclear electromagnetic pulse). Ability to define electromagnetic fields using mathematical language to assess systems, sub-systems and component behavior. [ + ] Low Observables Design Extensive and specialized knowledge of electromagnetic theory and physics to research and design low observable systems and components. Knowledge of low observable materials and processes; low observable design techniques and approaches; integration of low observable designs with other disciplines (such as structures, propulsion, and antennas) both internal and external; design trades and optimization; and electromagnetic analysis and modeling. Ability to apply low observables theory to develop new materials, processes, and techniques. Education and/or Experience Bachelor, Master or Doctorate of Science degree from an accredited course of study in engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics or chemistry and typically 9 to 13 years experience in an engineering classification or either a Master's degree with 7 to 11 years experience or a PhD degree with 4 to 8 years experience in an engineering classification. ABET is the preferred, although not required, accreditation standard.
