Job Information

KBR Electronics Development Engineer in Dayton, Ohio

Title:

Electronics Development Engineer

Electronics Development Engineer

Job Responsibilities: Support the Air Force Laboratory (AFRL) Sensor’s Directorate Integrated Photonic Circuits (IPC) Team to help advance R&D efforts in the field of integrated photonics and microwave photonics. Primary responsibilities are to lead the electronic development for the control, interfacing, and enhancement of photonic sub-systems. The successful candidate will collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team on the design, integration, assembly, and characterization of hybrid electronic/photonic prototypes. Electronic development involves mixed-signal circuit design, programing of microcontrollers and/or FPGA implementation. Applications focus on microwave photonics, atomic systems, and sensing.

The successful candidate is expected to lead electronic development to functionalize photonic sub-systems. Electronic support includes biasing of photonic devices, feed-back control, phase-locking, opto-electronic read-out, processing, and user-interfacing. Developed prototypes may be self-standing or embedded in larger system architectures. Opportunities also exist to contribute to exploratory research projects including the design of integrated electronic/photonic circuits and the advancement of microwave photonic processing using high-speed ADCs, FPGAs, and ASICs. Additional responsibilities include characterization, documentation, briefing reports, and project planning.

Qualifications

Required

  • Expertise designing mixed signal embedded systems

  • Experience using circuit design software (e.g. Eagle, Altium);

  • Self-motivated, with strong communication skills and the ability to work both independently and in a team environment across different disciplines.

  • Strong work ethic with integrity, dedication, dependability, and enthusiasm.

  • B.S. with 2+ years of relevant professional experience.

  • Ability to obtain SECRET security clearance

Desired Experience

  • Experience programming micro-controllers, FPGAs or ASICs

  • Deep understanding of feedback control including phase-locked loops, PID, and PDH.

  • Working knowledge of RF components and concepts

  • Extensive experience programing with C++, Python, and /or MATLAB.

  • Working knowledge of photonic components (e.g. lasers, modulator, detectors, etc.)

  • M.S. in electrical engineering, physics, or other related fields with 2+ years of relevant professional experience.

About AFRL: The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) addresses the basic and applied research needs and interests of the US Air Force. Headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Ohio, AFRL includes world-class scientists, engineers, technologists, post docs, and visiting researchers all focused on cutting-edge technology, including work with aerodynamics, applied mathematics, electronics, engine design, novel materials, optics/photonics, etc. To learn more, visit http://www.wpafb.af.mil/afrl/ry

Facilities Description: The Aerospace Components & Subsystems Technology Division develops and matures state-of-the-art photonic technologies for a variety of applications. The applicant will work within the Ultrafast Photonics Devices and Research Laboratory, which sits within this Division. The focus of this state-of-the-art laboratory is not only on conducting basic research but transitioning promising results into system-level demonstrations in an effort to better understand the functional trade-offs associated with various systems-level design decisions. This laboratory contains one of the most versatile ranges of both conventional and unique photonics test and measurement equipment in the country and includes sub-Hertz linewidth lasers as well as a wide range of electronic test equipment up to 110 GHz. The lab’s current team members hold PhDs and have strong technical backgrounds in optics/photonics however; this group is currently looking to grow their team.
