TL;DR · Senior HW Dev Engineer, Antenna System Validation

The Sr HW Dev Engineer, Antenna System Validation will join the Hardware Development team to lead the architectural vision for next-generation phased array antenna systems. This role involves defining blueprints for RF, digital, and hardware teams while overseeing system integration between phased array systems, RF front-ends, and digital beamforming architectures. The engineer will drive system-level design, optimization, and manufacturability while mentoring junior engineers. Key responsibilities include ensuring designs meet performance, power, and thermal targets for high-volume production. Required skills include phased array design principles like beamforming and steering, RF front-end design, high-speed digital systems, and signal integrity. Candidates should be proficient with system modeling tools, EM simulation tools like CST, HFSS, and ADS, and programming languages such as C, C++, Python, or MATLAB.

What you'll do

  • Define and lead the architectural vision for advanced phased array antenna systems.
  • Provide strategic technical input on program decisions and long-term technology roadmaps.
  • Create system-level design blueprints to guide RF, digital, and hardware teams.
  • Oversee system integration between phased array systems, RF front-ends, and digital beamforming.
  • Direct cross-functional teams to meet specific performance, power, and thermal targets.
  • Set architectural direction for manufacturability and testability for high-volume production.
  • Mentor and develop junior engineers to foster a culture of technical excellence.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or above in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent.
  • Experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver products and projects on tight deadlines.
  • Experience in phased array design principles, including beamforming, steering, and calibration.
  • Experience with RF front-end design, high-speed digital systems, and signal integrity.
  • Experience with system modeling tools and architectural design methodologies.
  • Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent (preferred).
  • Experience in Space Vehicle/Satellite Operations, Space Communications, or related industry (preferred).
  • Export Control Requirement.
