Lead and support the assembly and integration of products/systems containing microwave components or subsystems, leveraging extensive troubleshooting experience.

Synthesize and define RF system designs for complex electro-optical solutions.

Coordinate system-level requirements internally and among subcontractors and suppliers.

Design and develop microwave components, circuits, and subsystems for multidisciplinary product applications.

Develop test procedures, specify test equipment (including Vector Network Analyzers, Noise Figure Analyzers, and Spectrum Analyzers), and provide technical assistance during testing of prototype and production hardware.

Identify and execute continuous improvement plans for the EE team.

Develop estimates to complete work, in terms of engineering hours and schedule duration.
