At Silent Falcon UAS Technologies, we are at the forefront of AI and digital twins innovation for airports and transportation infrastructure, revolutionizing operations and enhancing safety. Our mission is to optimize efficiency and drive transformative change in the industry through cutting-edge technology solutions.

Silent Falcon UAS is searching for RF/Spectrum Engineers located in Egg Harbor NJ who can support the FAA with researching the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). This research involves exploring various aspects of UAS, including testing detection and mitigation systems and investigating their applications in airport environments. The research conducted by ATR commands significant attention due to its visible nature and ever-evolving objectives, which play a critical role in enhancing airport safety and optimizing the National Airspace System (NAS).

Key Responsibilities:
- Support GDIT program with UAS detection and mitigation technology/system research, testing, and evaluation efforts.
- Prepare and execute test plans and test cards for UAS detection and mitigation technologies.
- Develop a performance specifications framework for each type of UAS detection and mitigation technology.
- Support planning and coordination efforts for the deployment, testing, and evaluation of UAS detection and mitigation technologies/systems.
- Perform hazard analysis and safety-related analyses prior to conducting UAS detection and mitigation testing/evaluations.
- Conduct spectrum interference testing at each airport before testing UAS detection and mitigation technologies/systems.
- Develop a methodology and ranking criteria for selecting UAS platforms for testing against detection and mitigation technologies/systems.
- Assist UAS detection and mitigation technology/system vendors with deployment, operation, maintenance, monitoring, troubleshooting, data collection, and removal.
- Test and evaluate the performance capabilities of UAS detection and mitigation technologies/systems.
- Review, analyze, and report on the data collected during the testing and evaluation period.
- Develop pass/fail criteria and metrics for testing/evaluating UAS detection and mitigation technologies.
- Fully document all UAS detection and mitigation technology/system test and evaluations performed.
- Continually review and analyze collected data to prepare draft Engineering Brief/Advisory Circular language or other guidance documents.
- Prepare guidance for best practices in managing the effective use of UAS detection and mitigation technologies/systems at airports.
Qualifications:
- BA/BS in Systems Engineering or equivalent experience; 10-plus years of RF and Radar experience. Master's Degree or PhD in related field may be substituted for bachelors degree and 3 years of experience.
Required Skills:
- Self-starter with the ability to complete complex tasks independently.
- Highly collaborative team player.
- Proficient in project management, research techniques, risk management, data collection, analysis, technical writing, and presenting formal/technical information.
- Capable of executing research and development projects with minimal supervision.
- Ability to communicate complex technical material and test findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Experience in spectrum analysis, result analysis, report writing, and presentation.
- Demonstrated success in working with ambiguous requirements and refining them over time.
