Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. Be More Than You Can Imagine.

Advanced Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities enable F-35 pilots to locate and track enemy forces, jam radars and disrupt attacks with unparalleled effectiveness. Advanced avionics give the pilot real-time access to battle space information with 360-degree coverage and an unparalleled ability to dominate the tactical environment. Data collected by sensors on the F-35 will immediately be shared with commanders at sea, in the air or on the ground, providing an instantaneous, high-fidelity view of ongoing operations – making the F-35 a formidable force multiplier while enhancing coalition operations. This system allows F-35 pilots to reach well-defended targets and suppress enemy radars.

Responsibilities include defining and documenting engineering requirements, writing specifications, developing analysis and test plans, developing analysis tools, coordinating with the EW Principal Engineer and other key stakeholders, as well as interfacing / coordinating with various F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) personnel and with the various EW suppliers.

A level 5 employee Typically has 14 - 20 years of professional experience.

Candidate must possess a secret clearance and obtain special program access.
