Jade Morton's paper "Performance comparison of time-of-arrival estimation techniques for LTE signals in realistic multipath propagation channels" has been cited by NAVIGATION: Journal of the Institute of Navigation as one of their top ten downloaded papers of 2021. Congratulations!

We are looking to hire one or more undergrads (preferably with at least a year or more left in their program) to work on the NASA Earth Venture CYGNSS mission. CYGNSS launched in 2016 and has been widely successful in collecting data to assess hurricane formation and intensification, flooding events, locust migrations, and more.

There is also room to work on additional related projects on the PUNCH mission, which is in development and set to launch in 2025.

The job posting is listed here and any undergrads who might be interested, but have questions are welcome to contact me directly.

I'm Frasier Feight, a reliability engineer at SEAKR Engineering, a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies. I graduated from CU-Boulder in 2020, and after a few months of job hunting, finally found this awesome company. I thought I'd try to save a few graduates that time and stress by offering myself up as a contact here for new hires! Here's the list of open positions at SEAKR.

Not all of them are entry-level (or engineering), but there are a few internships and positions that look perfectly suited for recent graduates, especially those with some electrical and/or software engineering experience. If any of this year's graduates are interested, have them contact me through my email with their résumé attached. After that, I can refer them to their desired positions, and (hopefully) land them a great job at an amazing company first thing out of college!
