About the Role
The Microsystems team at GE Aerospace Research is seeking candidates for the research and development of RF Microsystems and their integration into aerospace products. This role focuses on designing and testing RF Microsystem solutions for harsh environment RF sensing, with additional work in mmWave communications and THz spectroscopy.
Responsibilities
- Work with a multidisciplinary team of Scientists, Engineers, and Technicians pushing the state of the art in Microsystems enabling low Size Weight and Power (SWaP) solutions
- Communicate status updates with key stakeholders within and outside GE Aerospace Research
- Design and Test RF Microsystems using state of the art simulation software along with wafer level and module level test capability
- Collaborate with industrial, DoD, and academic partners on system level solutions
- Work directly with customers to understand their needs and identify future opportunities
- Build RF Microsystem solutions specific to our customer needs
- Ensure the safety of all people engaged in the technical scope of their work
- Continuously scan and interpret the external landscape and translate that view into a clear point of view on long-range robotics and autonomy threats and opportunities
- Discover, curate, and drive revolutionary technological advancements in robotics, autonomy, and human-machine teaming that translate into high-impact business outcomes
- Shape and own program outcomes: define the technical thesis, retire key technical and adoption risks, set milestones, and drive operation, quality, and delivery
- Drive multi-disciplinary efforts that reach beyond the individual's own technical area of expertise
- Actively identify new opportunity areas where robotics and autonomy can create advantage
- Leverage technology strategy as a means to secure competitive advantage and business outcomes
- Make transparent go / no-go / pivot decisions at stage gates
- Shape and steer strategic partnerships with robot platform companies, academia, and national labs
- Shape and win externally funded programs
- Use IRAD as strategic seed capital
- Build trusted engagement with GE Aerospace product, engineering, manufacturing, MRO, and services leaders
- Recruit, mentor, and grow technical talent across the robotics and autonomy community
- Represent GE Aerospace externally through keynotes, university engagements, workshops, and strategic partnerships
- Help shape and drive the ARO operating model and lead continuous improvement of how the ARO selects, executes, and transitions advanced research
Requirements
- PhD degree in a relevant Engineering discipline with a minimum of 3 years of related experience or MS degree in a relevant Engineering discipline with a minimum of 5 years of related experience
- Demonstrated experience designing and testing active and passive RF electronic structures and devices
- Demonstrated ability to design, simulate, fabricate, and test RF circuits
- Demonstrated experience with RF simulation tools like Ansys HFSS, CST Studio Suite, ADS, Sonnet, and Momentum
- Must be willing to work out of an office located in Niskayuna, NY.
