Job Information
SHINE Systems & Technologies Electronics Engineering Examiners in Forest Park, Georgia
Primary responsibilities include:
Perform exploitation and reverse-engineering on IED electronic circuits, develop device characterization, along with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Systems (UAVs).
Identify, capture, analyze and characterize electronic devices and components from IED circuit boards for arming, firing and source characteristics.
Reverse engineering analysis to identify specific integrated components and electronics of unmanned systems; (engines, navigational sensors, antennas, construction building material, signal conditioning and power units)
Capture, characterize and identify IED electrical/electronic RF receiver and transmitter modules and circuit board characteristics, operating frequencies, and power.
Specify component nomenclatures and research to identify resources and specifications, reverse engineering the devices if required.
Analyze recovered electronic components visually, including switching circuits and power sources. Conduct research, provide information, and develop accurate schematics of devices using CirCad.
Analyze, demodulate, and decode signals to extract intelligence data using standardized demodulation and decoding tools and techniques for commonly encountered signals.
Utilize laboratory measuring equipment, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and associated instrumentation to perform exploitation of the devices and materials.
Perform Electronic Data Recovery (EDR) of logical and physical data on mobile phones and other media storage devices using hardware/software tools including Cellebrite UFED, XRY, FTK and other forensic tools. Then analyze the EDR files to recover data that may be of investigative or intelligence value.
Perform electronic data extraction and de-soldering techniques of components; (EEProms microcontrollers using In-system programming (ISP).
Document all exploitation results in all required outputs such as component lists, circuit layouts, mechanical drawings, or in tools like WEAT. Assist in the creation of technical/scientific reports documenting the results of exploitation and analysis.
The devices/mobiles phones/data peripherals/UAVs shall be characterized in WEAT to document and compare against components from other events or other theaters.
Responsible for reporting and briefing critical finds to both military and DoD civilian leadership. Also, coordinating with other governmental agencies (OGA) on technical aspects of devices/UAVs.
Support development of countermeasures for electronic devices/signals.
Provide information to assist in profiling and signature analysis. Produce storyboards and technical reports on captured data. Maintain and document chain of custody of items and data.
Required Qualifications:
Five (5) years of experience in a radio frequency (RF) test environment and characterizing electronic components for intelligence products and reporting.
Five (5) years of experience performing benchtop RF measurements (e.g. occupied bandwidth, average power, pulse width, etc.) using signal generators, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, and other equipment.
Experience with Unmanned Systems (Aerial, Vehicle, Surface, etc),
Experience with Integrated development environment software (IDE) and Raspberry Pi, Arduino devices.
Experience with testing and characterizing electrical components of IEDs and/or Software Defined Radios (SDR).
Experience with standard operating procedures for the storage, testing and transport of samples and components found in captured materials.
Demonstrated ability to produce technical reports on findings and develop device profiles.
Must be able to obtain and maintain a Department of Defense (DoD) Top-Secret security clearance.
Must be able to obtain US Passport
Must be able to complete and pass a medical assessment per customer requirement.
