Senior EW/AEA Analyst (DNP0[0526])

Air Combat Effectiveness is seeking a highly experienced Senior Electronic Warfare / Airborne Electronic Attack (EW/AEA) Analyst to support mission engineering, capability development, and Science & Technology (S&T) efforts for the U.S. Navy. The ideal candidate brings deep operational AEA/EW experience, strong familiarity with Navy and Joint doctrine and policy, and the ability to translate operational needs into analytical insights and technical recommendations. This role also supports cognitive EW-related research and studies, helping advance emerging technologies and next-generation electromagnetic spectrum capabilities.

This is a hybrid position, combining remote work with required on-site support for classified meetings, team collaboration, customer engagement, and coordination with government and industry partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide subject-matter expertise in Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA), Electronic Warfare planning, and electromagnetic spectrum operations.
• Support mission engineering activities, including system performance analysis, mission thread development, CONOPS evaluation, and capability gap identification.
• Contribute to cognitive EW research and studies, including emerging concepts, adaptive EW approaches, and technology exploration in support of Navy S&T priorities.
• Advise and participate in Science & Technology (S&T) initiatives, including requirements development, technology evaluation, risk assessments, and transition planning for emerging EW/AEA capabilities.
• Conduct operational assessments, scenario analysis, and mission modeling to evaluate system effectiveness across contested and dynamic electromagnetic environments.
• Interpret and apply U.S. Navy and Joint EW/EMS policy, doctrine, and acquisition guidance to capability development and analysis tasks.
• Prepare and present technical reports, analysis products, and briefings for senior leadership, program offices, and fleet stakeholders.
• Collaborate across engineering teams, operators, researchers, and program managers to ensure alignment between operational needs and technical development efforts.
• Participate in fleet-support activities such as exercises, wargaming, technical exchanges, and requirements reviews.

Requirements:

support activities such as exercises, wargaming, technical exchanges, and requirements reviews.

Do you have experience in Electronic warfare?, * Extensive operational AEA/EW experience, preferably within U.S. Navy aviation (e.g., EA-18G, EA-6B, or other tactical aviation EW roles).

• Strong working knowledge of U.S. Navy and Joint EW/EMS policy, doctrine, and TTPs.
• Demonstrated experience with mission engineering, operational analysis, or system-of-systems environments.
• Familiarity with S&T development workflows, technology maturation, and transition pathways.
• Ability to communicate complex EW/AEA and electromagnetic spectrum concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
• U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance (as applicable).

Desired Qualifications

• Experience supporting cognitive EW, adaptive algorithms, data-driven analysis, or related research areas.
• Experience with acquisition programs, requirements development, or JCIDS processes.
• Background in wargaming, modeling & simulation, threat analysis, or test & evaluation.
• Prior collaboration with Navy labs, OPNAV, ONR, NAVAIR, or Joint EW organizations.
• Advanced degree in engineering, physics, operations research, or related technical field.
