Verus Research is searching for a Technical Editor who can effectively communicate scientific ideas and outcomes pertaining to research and development (R&D) in the directed energy (DE) field.  No previous experience in DE is required.  However, candidates possessing a technical background in electrical engineering, physics, or similar disciplines are more likely to provide clear explanations of complex technical ideas to others within the scientific community.  This posting is for work in the Albuquerque, NM, area.

In addition to the academic training described above, the ideal candidate for the Technical Editor will be able to work well in a team and provide coherent reporting of technical concepts.  Success in this role will stem from the following characteristics:

• U.S. citizen (mandatory)
• Hold or be able to obtain a Department of Defense (DoD) security clearance (mandatory)
• A familiarity with relevant technical areas in the academic or DoD R&D environments pertaining to RF and microwave measurements, testing, and analysis (highly desired)
• S. degree in electrical engineering, applied physics, or other relevant engineering discipline (degree-holders in Journalism or English will also be considered if the applicant has documented technical experience in a physical lab environment) (highly desired)
• Demonstrated written and oral communication skills, including experience writing technical reports and briefing program results (highly desired)

Verus Research is searching for a Senior Electrical Engineer to perform research and development in the technical domains of directed energy (DE), radio frequency (RF) and microwave communications, and electronic warfare.  The Senior Electrical Engineer will perform high-fidelity modeling and simulation-based design and optimization of circuit and system components, experimental testing, and analysis to support the development of prototype systems of interest to our customers.  Anticipated responsibilities include program management, technical management, and serving as a senior test leader by guiding a team of junior engineers in support of customer-defined requirements.  This posting is for work in the Albuquerque, NM, area.

The ideal candidate for the Senior Electrical Engineer role will possess a strong mix of leadership traits, program and technical management experience, experimental and analytical skills, and the ability to communicate complex ideas and provide innovative solutions.  Success in this demanding role will stem from:
