Davidson is distinguished in the aerospace and missile defense industry, in part, because of its excellence in hiring exceptional experts, engineers and software developers dedicated to delivering advanced, intelligent technology solutions in defense of our nation.

Davidson is seeking a Mid-Level Radar Electromagnetic Warfare Analyst for Huntsville, Alabama. The Radar Electromagnetic Warfare Analyst will support analysis and modeling activities focused on electromagnetic warfare applications for missile defense systems. The role includes conducting special studies, analyzing radar electromagnetic protection techniques, and contributing to the development and use of MATLAB-based simulation tools that model radar and electronic warfare interactions at the in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) signal level.
This position operates in a classified environment and supports engineering analysis used to evaluate system survivability and electromagnetic performance.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct technical studies related to electromagnetic warfare and radar electromagnetic protection for missile defense systems.
  
• Develop and utilize MATLAB-based simulations to model radar signal behavior, electronic attack (EA), and electronic protection (EP) techniques.
  
• Implement and analyze radar signal models in the time domain at the in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) level.
  
• Evaluate RF propagation effects and their impact on radar and electronic warfare performance.
  
• Support analysis of electromagnetic threats and system vulnerabilities.
  
• Generate technical reports, briefings, and documentation summarizing study results and modeling outcomes.
  
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to support system-level electromagnetic survivability assessments.
  
• Contribute to the improvement and extension of simulation tools used to evaluate radar and EW system performance.

Job Requirements:

• 10 years of relevant professional experience in radar systems, electronic warfare, RF analysis, or related technical fields.
• Experience developing or modifying engineering simulations using MATLAB
• Familiarity with radar signal processing concepts, including time-domain signal representations
• Knowledge of electronic attack (EA) and electronic protection (EP) techniques
• Understanding of RF propagation effects and their influence on radar performance
• Ability to work effectively in a classified on-site environment
• Must be a U.S. citizen

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience modeling radar systems or EW interactions at the I/Q signal level
• Experience with Simulink, Python, or C/C++ for engineering analysis or modeling
• Background in radar system design, radar signal processing, or EW vulnerability analysis
• Familiarity with RF link analysis, radar equation analysis, or signal propagation modeling
• Experience supporting missile defense or other defense system programs
• Strong technical writing and briefing skills

Clearance:

• Currently holds an Active DoD Secret Clearance
