Job Description:
Requisition ID: R10160069
Job Description This position is currently contingent on program
award and associated program award funding. Start dates are
determined after funding confirmation. At Northrop Grumman, we
Define Possible. We are a passionate community of engineers and
leaders, a creative community of scientists and researchers, a
diverse community of human beings, all driven to pioneer the
future. And in Survivability, that future is bright--- Or, from the
enemy's perspective, it is as dark as the cover of a moonless
night. Now, imagine sitting in a stadium, or outside at a parade,
and the next generation of Stealth Technology flies overhead,
drawing a roar of admiration from the crowd. Imagine being able to
turn to the person next to you and saying "I had a hand in that."
At Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems and in Survivability
Engineering, that could be Your Possible. We are tasked with
developing, testing, and implementing new materials, technologies,
and concepts, that enable the most lethal, intelligent, and
collaborative systems to penetrate and operate in enemy airspace
with impunity. We work hand in hand with a broad swath of other
engineering disciplines to design, develop, manufacture, and
sustain these systems. Our responsibilities span the full Systems
Engineering lifecycle-from research and development to modeling and
analysis, from static / component test to dynamic flight test, from
manufacturing floor support to field repairs and maintenance, and
more. We work across multiple spectrums-from RF (Radio Frequency),
to IR (Infrared) and Visual, to Acoustic. Our engineers have the
opportunity to work in various environments-behind desks, in highly
specialized labs, at indoor and outdoor test and measurement
ranges, and at overseas operational locations. Our team is
absolutely critical to the cradle-to-grave success of our
cornerstone programs and the programs of the future, and your role
on our team would be equally critical to our success as an
organization. Without Survivability Engineers, there is no Low in
Low Observable. Without us, there is no Stealth in Stealth Bomber.
