Principal Radiation Effects Engineer

Radiation Effects Engineers (REE) are responsible for providing subject matter expertise and guidance for programs and hardware systems with requirements to operate during and after exposure to radiation.

The REE combines multi-disciplined skills ranging from radiation effects and interactions in electronics devices and materials, and radiation environment transport and shielding, with a unique expertise in models and tools.

This role requires radiation response testing, modeling and the use of test data to assess hardware designs against the specifications and requirements.

The REE derives the system radiation requirements from the environment specifications and provides cross discipline support in applying unique skills to program design and system engineers.

The REE also develops and manages the program engineering and qualification radiation testing efforts; analyzing and modeling data, and delivering final test reports.
