About the role
Northrop Grumman Corp. in East Hartford, CT, seeks a Principal Physicist to lead microwave and RF photonic design efforts on high-impact programs.
You will collaborate with program managers and engineers to translate requirements into hardware and algorithms, supporting multi-disciplinary systems. The role emphasizes rapid learning, clear technical communication with customers, and the ability to trade study options to meet deadlines.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
