Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL)
Maritime Surveillance LFA/CLFA System Design and Operations Analyst
Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL), Laurel, Maryland, United States, 20723
Description
Are you looking to be on the cutting edge of new and innovative ways to deploy active sonar capabilities within the Maritime Surveillance domain?
Are you passionate about working with groundbreaking, next-generation technologies?
Do you want to make significant contributions to improve essential U. S. Naval capabilities through operations analysis and test and evaluation?
If so, we're looking for someone like you to join us at APL.
We are seeking a dynamic, creative, and analytical candidate to help us assess the design and
influence the capability development of the U.S. Navy's Maritime Surveillance Systems (MSS) Low Frequency Active (LFA), Compact LFA (CLFA), and prototype Deployable Active Systems. We are looking to push the boundaries of system capabilities by providing critical support to the U.S. Navy's Advanced Development, integration and testing community. Your contributions will help us transform data into knowledge, enabling decision makers to make informed choices on the future direction of the Navy's surveillance-based mission systems. You will join a hardworking and expert team of engineers, subject matter experts and software developers in an inclusive environment that values creative collaboration and innovation.
As a Maritime Surveillance Systems Engineer/Analyst, you will... Collaborate with system developers and analysis team members to conduct lab-based and at-sea assessment of functional and operational Maritime Surveillance Systems CLFA, LFA and prototype Deployable Active Systems capabilities. Ensure test scope, analysis methodology, appropriate measures of performance and data required to execute analysis are comprehensive. Apply surveillance domain experience to develop new system display concepts, capabilities, and functions to improve system performance. Research, investigate, and experiment with next-generation technologies and look for creative applications in unconventional ways. Apply systems engineering expertise in support of future MSS LFA, CLFA and prototype Deployable Active Systems requirements and capability development to inform impending development direction. Collaborate with analysts to contribute to evaluation of fielded MSS LFA, CLFA and prototype Deployable Active Systems. Liaise between JHU/APL, acquisition sponsors (PMS 485), and fleet operational commands to inform future development decision-making and optimize operational utility and MSS LFA, CLFA and prototype Deployable Active Systems employment.
Qualifications
You meet our minimum qualifications for this position if you... Have earned a US Navy designator, billet classification, or enlisted classification code related to surveillance systems and/or active sonar. Have
10+
years of relevant experience with acoustic surveillance systems operations, training, and testing. Have experience with US Navy developmental and operational test and evaluation. Are passionate about applying operational experience and analytical skills in an innovative and collaborative environment. Have strong interpersonal skills, are skilled at developing relationships across organizational teams and have excellent oral and written communication skills. Are proficient at multi-tasking, prioritizing assignments, communicating progress and meeting deadlines. Have participated in system test, delivery, and integration tests at sponsor or operational navy sites. Are able to obtain an interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a TS/SCI level clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship. You'll go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you... Have a strong background or previous experience in acoustics analysis. Have
15+
years of operational experience in the Integrated Undersea Surveillance Systems. Have experience conducting reconstruction and analysis of operational data. Have led system design, integration and/or test events at sponsor or operational navy sites. Have previous experience with evaluation of U.S. Navy surveillance systems performance. Possess a BS degree in Mathematics, Science, or Engineering or equivalent surveillance qualifications. Have an active TS or higher level clearance
