## Description

As an electrical engineer, you understand the workings behind complex systems. Datalink engineers work at the junction of communications engineering and systems integration and that knowledge is key when it comes to designing and integrating datalink systems. We're looking for an electrical engineer who can use their skills and engineering tools to model, simulate, and validate datalink performance to integrate systems, subsystems, and components.

At Booz Allen, you'll use your engineering skills to improve performance and integrate advanced technologies into existing and future platforms. That's why we need an electrical engineer like you, who is well-versed in datalink systems, to help us design and develop future technologies within the datalink discipline.

On our team, you'll work with existing teams to understand current challenges and work with OEMs, laboratories, and internal Booz Allen technical teams to improve the warfighters' competitive edge. You will assist in augmenting designs and algorithms to better system performance. This is a chance to use your electrical engineering skills while gaining experience in the datalink discipline to sharpen your skills while doing meaningful work.

Take on exciting challenges in mission systems with us as we improve the warfighters' edge.
