Senior Radio Frequency Engineer

Required

• 7+ years of hands-on industry experience in RF systems design, build, test, and troubleshooting.
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Depth in RF link budgets, co-site analysis, and desense, and a working understanding of EMI and the system-level integration issues that come with dense platforms.
• Fluency with RF test equipment: spectrum analysers, network analysers, power meters, signal and function generators, and the judgement to know when a measurement is telling you something real.
• Experience with RF system modelling and simulation.
• Experience with the electrical integration of avionics modules and payloads into UAVs, ground vehicles, C2 systems, or weapons systems.
• Working knowledge of aviation communications systems (radios, antennas, and similar) and tactical communications systems, plus the fundamentals of Ethernet and IP networking.
• Python for test automation and data analysis, and a habit of automating any measurement you take more than twice.
• The ability to work across disciplines: defining product requirements, running trade analyses, developing specifications, and conducting system-level tests with people who are not RF engineers.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active UKSV Security Clearance.
