Engineering/Technician |
Uncleared currently acceptable, would prefer someone who is eligible/open to being
cleared for future efforts.
Desired skills (Some skills in optics and microwaves can be acquired on the job if nominal
hands-on familiarity with these technologies already exists):
- Bench-level testing and qualification of electronic and optical components
and subsystems, including FPGAs, microcontrollers, I2C/UART/SPI interfaces, high-speed
(>10Gb/s) microwave/RF electronics, high-speed (>10GHz) microwave/RF test gear, tunable
laser assemblies, high-power (>1W optical) EDFAs, bare (not connectorized) optical fibers,
electronic polarization controllers.
- Package design and realization for fieldable prototypes.
- Bench-level integration of components/subsystems into fieldable prototypes.
- FPGA and microcontroller programming.
- Embedded programming.
- Printed circuit board design, layout, and implementation.
- Design and implementation of feedback and control methods.
The URF work location is at the Laboratory for Physical Sciences, Greenbelt, MD. Full-time employment and excellent benefits. |
