Radiance Technologies is seeking a Senior Electromagnetics Engineer to support ongoing research and development programs in areas including directed energy, high-power microwave systems, RF systems, pulsed power, and related technologies. This is a full-time position based at a Radiance’s headquarters in Huntsville, Alabama.

This position involves fast-paced, hands-on work in a laboratory environment with a highly multidisciplinary engineering team. The selected candidate will apply electromagnetic theory, computational modeling, and experimental methods to the analysis, design, integration, and testing of RF and electromagnetic systems.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in applied electromagnetics with demonstrated experience solving practical engineering problems involving electromagnetic fields, RF propagation, transmission lines, waveguides, antennas, or related technologies. The candidate should be comfortable moving between analytical calculations, computational electromagnetic modeling, hardware development, and laboratory measurement.

The selected candidate will be expected to independently lead electromagnetic analysis and design efforts, develop and evaluate computational models, plan and execute RF measurements, correlate measured results with analytical or numerical predictions, and work with electrical and mechanical engineers to integrate electromagnetic components into larger systems. The position also requires the ability to troubleshoot complex RF systems, communicate analysis results clearly, and mentor less experienced engineers.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Physics, or a related technical field
  • 5+ years of relevant engineering experience involving electromagnetics, RF, microwave, or related technologies (A Master’s in STEM will substitute for 2 years of experience)
  • U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance
  • Strong understanding of applied electromagnetic theory, including electromagnetic fields, wave propagation, transmission lines, and impedance matching
  • Experience applying analytical or numerical methods to practical electromagnetic engineering problems
  • Experience with computational electromagnetic modeling or simulation
  • Hands-on experience with RF or microwave laboratory measurements and test equipment
  • Experience analyzing measured data and comparing experimental results with analytical or computational predictions
  • Ability to independently solve technical problems and work effectively within a multidisciplinary R&D team
  • Strong written and verbal technical communication skills

Desired Qualifications:

Master’s or doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Physics, or a related field with a concentration in electromagnetics, RF, microwave engineering, or a similar discipline

8+ years of relevant engineering experience

Experience with one or more computational electromagnetics tools such as ANSYS HFSS, CST Studio Suite, FEKO, COMSOL Multiphysics, or similar

Experience with antenna analysis, design, simulation, or measurement

Experience with waveguide, transmission-line, resonator, or RF component design

Experience with near-field and far-field electromagnetic measurements

Experience with vector network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, RF power measurement equipment, or related instrumentation

Experience with electromagnetic compatibility, shielding, coupling, grounding, or electromagnetic susceptibility analysis

Experience developing computational or analytical tools using MATLAB, Python, or similar engineering software

Experience with high-power RF or microwave systems, high-field electromagnetic environments, or directed-energy systems

Experience with pulsed RF measurements and time-domain electromagnetic analysis

Experience designing or supporting RF test fixtures, antennas, waveguide components, or other custom electromagnetic hardware

Experience leading technical efforts or mentoring junior engineers

Active Secret or Top Secret security clearance

Clearance:

Applicants selected will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.
