Northrop Grumman needs Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) engineers to team up and help lead the E3 design, development, and analysis of complex electronic products for space systems.
At Northrop Grumman Space Systems E3 engineering is the impact of the electromagnetic environment upon the operational capability of components, assemblies, equipment, subsystems, systems, and other space platforms. E3 covers all electromagnetic disciplines, including electromagnetic compatibility (EMC); electromagnetic interference (EMI); electromagnetic vulnerability (EMV); electromagnetic pulse (EMP); electrostatic discharge (ESD); electronic protection; hazards of electromagnetic radiation to personnel, ordnance, and volatile materials; and natural phenomena effects such as lightning and p-static.
This position can be filled level T3 or T4.
Responsibilities:
- Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) engineers must work across diverse engineering disciplines in support of multiple space system programs. Northrop Grumman E3 engineers deliver valued oversight across all phases of a program from origin to orbit. To meet these challenges at Northrop Grumman an E3 engineer must have a strong aptitude for learning new and exciting innovations and a strong E3 skill set.
- Writing, interpreting, allocating, tailoring, and flowing down E3 requirements to all design levels.
- Present at design reviews to internal and external customers regarding E3 issues.
- Writing E3 design guidelines, developing models and performing analyses on components, subsystems and systems using EMI principles.
- Designing ground systems, chassis and harness shielding, EMI filters, and selecting and laying out interface circuitry for achieving EMC.
- Prepare and review E3 test procedures, E3 test reports, E3 technical analyses, E3 control plans, and participate in cross discipline design reviews for EMC.
Basic Qualifications:
Level T3 - Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or STEM discipline with 5 years experience
Level T4 - Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or STEM discipline with 8 years experience
- Working knowledge of MIL-STD 461, MIL-STD 464, NASA-GEVS-7000 and other E3 space requirement standards.
- Demonstrated ability to successfully allocate, tailor, and flowdown system level E3 requirements into lower-level requirements.
- E3 design and analysis experience.
- Working knowledge of lab test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, generators, amplifiers, and measurement antennas.
- Must have U.S. Citizenship with current or active Top Secret Clearance with SCI eligibility at time of application.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, with a specialty in Electromagnetics, RF, or analog circuitry is preferred.
- Experience with defense and aerospace industry practices, and programmatic skills supporting BOE, RFP, ROM, CAM, WBS, Risk assessments for E3 compliance.
- Design experience with EMI filters, circuit layout and analysis for E3, shielding, lightning protection, cable, and harnessing design.
- Working knowledge and experience in modeling and simulation of E3 using commercially available software.
