Job Details

SUMMARY:
The Sr. RF Engineer with work with the engineering staff to design, develop, and validate various special purpose communication systems. This person will perform detailed electronic circuit design/analysis, work closely with project leads to coordinate prototyping activities, and be responsible for the assigned CCA and system design from concept through pre-production phase. This individual may be responsible for leading small projects or be part of a larger team development.

DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Design and validate RF electronic circuits and systems (including: RF amplifier, communications modulation/demodulation, small signal analog front end, signal conditioning, and antennas).
  • Be responsible as a project lead, team lead or team member for the creation of complex RF based systems from the idea phase, to a prototype and finally to production.
  • Perform detailed system and Circuit Card Assembly sub-system design, analysis, verification, simulation, and related work as required.
  • Work with complicated electronic system concepts and detailed circuit design to properly determine the necessary design tradeoffs.
  • Participate in Circuit Card Assembly design, system test planning, and system test procedure generation for first articles.
  • Provide support to the design, development, prototype fabrication, and design verification testing of electronic circuits.

EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE:
  • Bachelors in Electrical Engineering
