About this role
Job Description:
A position for a Low Observability (LO) Engineer has arisen within Airbus Defence and Space in Getafe (Madrid). The successful applicant will join the LO Engineering Spain Department.
In general terms, a LO Engineer in this Department is expected:
To understand the foundations of Operational Analysis and Preliminary Design.
To understand the influence of vehicle architecture on multi-spectral signature.
To understand the overall product life cycle of military aircraft with respect to its influence on signature.
To master the area of signature reduction.
To master LO design and analysis (radar, IR and visual), being able to specify designs and architectures to meet LO requirements.
To characterize and validate signature via simulations and measurements, defining the adequate simulation / test plans.
RESPONSIBILITIES
In this framework, the current position targets early stages in the career of a LO Engineer, looking for the following T&A:
To perform advanced LO analysis and Radar Cross Section (RCS) predictions using electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools (both proprietary and commercial).
Active participation in multidisciplinary designs. Propose design modifications (geometry, materials…) and drive designs to achieve LO requirements.
To prepare complex CAD geometries to get accurate results from electromagnetic solvers.
To post-process and interpret large volumes of simulation data, translating them into clear, actionable design recommendations for multidisciplinary engineering teams.
To devise test plans and validate simulation results against measurement of real prototypes, quantifying both simulation and measurement limitations.
To research in the field of stealth to have a solid understanding of the discipline (past, present and future) to drive the design activities.
SKILLS
The following K&S are expected:
Required Technical Skills:
Degree in Telecommunication Engineering, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or Physics.
Strong background in EM theory: e.g. scattering and radiation phenomena, EM properties of materials, wave propagation, ...
User of complex and advanced tools for EM simulation and modelling (e.g. FEKO, CST, HFSS). Ability to adapt quickly to proprietary, in-house tools environments.
User of CAD management tools (pre- and post-processing): e.g. CATIA, GiD, FreeCAD, Hypermesh.
Scripts programmer (e.g., Python) for pre-processing, post-processing, and data automation workflows.
Awareness of signature measurement data processing algorithms design, such as ISAR.
Nice-to-have Technical Skills:
Knowledge about Computational Electromagnetics (CEM): e.g., MoM, FDTD, FEM, or high-frequency/asymptotic methods like PO/PTD.
Knowledge about High Performance Computing (HPC).
Knowledge about LO design and solutions.
Knowledge about Systems Engineering (SE).
Preferred Soft Skills:
Ability to work steadily and mostly autonomously on a problem until solving it.
Active team player.
Ability to overcome difficulties in the development of the projects.
Communication skills, adapted to different audiences.
