BlueHalo is hiring a NAVWAR Engineer to support the Joint Navigation Warfare Center (JNWC) contract. Join our team in empowering the Department of Defense's navigation warfare (NAVWAR) mission to ensure positioning, navigation, and timing superiority. Our mission is to provide combatant commanders and joint force commanders with subject matter expertise on planning and conducting NAVWAR by delivering knowledge of friendly and enemy NAVWAR Order of Battle and PNT-related successes and threats.
As a NAVWAR Engineer, you will serve as a Modeling and Simulation Subject Matter Expert, providing executive-level insight into NAVWAR engineering support. You will be responsible for the research and development of multi-function small form factor payloads for NAVWAR-based missions, developing and analyzing models of novel algorithmic concepts to produce distributed electronic sensing effects for NAVWAR payloads, and utilizing electronic warfare (EW) signal processing algorithms to enable threat detection and identification for countermeasure employment. Additionally, you will develop systems to support GPS system hardening, integrate EW, communications, and radar missions into small form factor payloads, investigate heterogeneous sensing concepts across different platforms, and design and implement testing of RF and other hardware portions of software-defined radio frameworks. Your role will also include reverse engineering existing NAVWAR signal processing solutions, synthesizing and allocating system requirements, supporting development and implementation of client requirements for RF solutions, performing Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) testing, supporting technical reviews of vendor products, researching state-of-the-art signal processing algorithms, and working with customers to integrate solutions into various applications and use cases. You will also debug, test, and validate our capabilities using unit tests and scenarios reported by the JNWC or JNWC Customers.
