Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.As an Antenna Engineer you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary team to develop and execute tests of Payload phased array antennas and customer terminals using our state-of-the-art Spherical Near-Field (SNF), Planar NF, and robotic CATR antenna test systems, and build the bones of our Antenna Metrology lab. Not only that: you’ll design new antenna test systems to dramatically accelerate antenna beam pattern test, dynamic beam pointing test, and link verification, and build the de-facto fastest Ka-band antenna test system in the world.
