1 At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage, and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity, and bringing your whole self to work. Northrop Grumman needs Radiation Effects & Survivability (RES) engineers to team up and help lead the RES design, development, and analysis of complex electronic products for space systems. At Northrop Grumman Space Systems, RES engineering involves the impact of the radiation environment upon the operational capability of components, assemblies, equipment, subsystems, systems, and other space platforms. RES engineers perform radiation effects analysis, shielding analysis, survivability analysis, radiation analysis reporting, and simulation of electronic components relative to space radiation effects. Responsibilities
Radiation Analysis for satellite payload systems Test plans and test reports for radiation testing of electronic components (e.g., total dose, prompt dose, and single event upset) Radiation predictions using NOVICE, SPENVIS, CREME96, OMERE, and other radiation analysis tools Radiation effects on material degradation Interface with multiple disciplines such as electrical, mechanical, EMI/EMC/ESD, contamination, procurement, subcontractors, manufacturing, and test Prepare and present technical reports for internal and external customers Present radiation requirements and compliance in program meetings and design reviews (PDR, CDR, etc.) Analyze Single Event Effects, Burnouts, Latchups, Upsets, and Transients in electronic circuits Propose Circuit design mitigations to reduce or eliminate risk of Single Event Effects failure Total Ionizing Dose analysis Analyze Displacement Damage Dose impact on optoelectronics Analyze Deep Charging (Internal Electron Flux) applied to spacecraft component boxes and external harnesses Spacecraft radiation shielding & modeling Basic Qualifications:
Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Physics, or closely related technical discipline with 12 years of experience. Extensive RES design and analysis experience Knowledge of physics associated with radiation effects in semiconductor devices Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills Must have U.S. Citizenship with active or current Top Secret Clearance with SCI eligibility at time of application Preferred Qualifications
A Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Physics, or closely related technical discipline Experience with radiation tools like NOVICE, AE9AP9, CRÈME, SPENVIS, etc. CAD modeling experience with Creo Parametric Salary Range:
$171,000 - $256,400 The above salary range represents a general guideline; however, Northrop Grumman considers a number of factors when determining base salary offers such as the scope and responsibilities of the position and the candidate's experience, education, skills, and current market conditions.
