Description:We are Lockheed Martin

Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company and its research and development line-of-business, The Skunk Works, seeks a motivated and enthusiastic candidate to join the Low Observables team (Signature Management & Survivability). Specifically, we seek to identify a candidate with expertise or willingness to learn one of the following disciplines:
- Aircraft stealth signature reduction and low observables (LO) phenomenology
- Radar cross section (RCS) susceptibility
- Electromagnetics (EM), computational electromagnetics (CEM)
- LO project/program management
- LO Manufacturing
- RF Measurements

The candidate will be working in a high-paced environment responsible for low observable technology maturation lifecycle from initial concept, project execution, modeling and simulation, prototype build and test, external customer communication, proposal and contract capture, and transition to production. The candidate will work independently and in small teams and participate in Government forums and internal Skunk Works program reviews as an emerging LO signature advisor.

Typical responsibilities may include:
- Responsible for performing, analyzing, and communicating vehicle signature predictions using Unix-based codes and tools.
- Responsible for taking measurements of material coupons to determine physical, electrical, and/or environmental properties.
- Engagement in the research, design, computational electromagnetic modeling, fabricating, and testing of advanced electromagnetic metamaterials.
- Post-processing and communicating results of vehicle signature measurements.
- Writing and using scripts to batch analysis and post-processing.


The position requires strong verbal and written communication skills for reports and technical briefings to large groups. An ability to explain complex technical concepts in a readily comprehensible manner is an advantage. The candidate will participate in multidisciplinary design teams to solve challenging aircraft survivability and manufacturing problems.

A Security Clearance will be required for those that apply and the candidate must ultimately qualify for a Top Secret clearance.
