Pulsed Power Engineer
Description
Job Description:
Our Directed Energy team inAlbuquerqueis looking for aPulsed Power Engineerto contribute to the research and development of game changing, next-generation technologies.
This is an exciting opportunity to work with modern equipment in cutting-edge laboratories at the Air Force Research Laboratories (AFRL) on Kirtland AFB, where you will see designs and ideas transformed into state-of-the art pulsed power devices and high power microwave (HPM) sources and systems.
Working alongside our scientists, engineers, and technicians, our successful candidate will be afforded the satisfaction of building and testing new and novel creations in both laboratory and field settings.
Primary
Responsibilities:
Test and characterize novel pulsed power devices and HPM sources and systems, including pulsars, trigger systems, switches, field coils, non-linear transmission lines, HPM amplifiers and antennas.
Assist with laboratory and field testing, including setting up and conducting tests, reducing test data, and analyzing results.
Field diagnostics and operate data acquisition systems necessary to obtain device and system performance data.
Basic
Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering or related discipline with two or more years of pulsed power related experience.
Expertise using data capture software to capture test data.
Experience conducting laboratory and field tests of pulsed power devices and HPM sources and systems.
