Position Role Type:

An exciting opportunity exists for a temporary Senior Principal RF/Microwave Engineer to join our Advanced Microelectronics Solutions Department (AMSD) at Raytheon in Andover, MA. AMSD develops, designs, and manufactures compound semiconductor devices, microwave/millimeter-wave integrated circuits, and modules for defense applications. Raytheon’s state-of-the-art monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) products support air and missile defense systems and radars. The successful candidate will be a subject matter expert in gallium nitride (GaN) MMIC design tasked with training developing designers in MMIC design techniques and best practices. The candidate will also act as a product engineer to trouble-shoot issues with existing MMICs in the next higher assembly.

We value diverse skills and experience, so don’t hold back. Your qualification could add tremendous value to our team. Our customers come from all different backgrounds, and so do our employees. If you’re passionate about what you could accomplish here, we’d love to hear from you.
