Tech Stack

About the role

  • Support design and develop antenna systems, including reflectors, feeds, radiating elements and sub-reflectors (Q, V and E-bands)
  • Perform critical electromagnetic (EM) simulations using tools like HFSS, CST, and TICRA to optimize antenna performance
  • Collaborate closely with RFIC/MMIC, T/R module, DSP, mechanical, and thermal engineers to define requirements and ensure a cohesive system design
  • Support prototype fabrication, assembly, and RF testing (near-field, far-field, and environmental testing)
  • Support the entire hardware lifecycle, guiding the fabrication, characterization, and environmental qualification of antenna systems
  • Document designs, analyses, and test results in technical reports and reviews

Requirements

  • B.S. in Electrical Engineering with 5+ years of experience in RF antenna design or M.S. in Electrical Engineering or a related field with 3+ years of experience in RF antenna design
  • Solid understanding of electromagnetic theory and its application to antenna design
  • Proven experience supporting the design and development of antennas and associated hardware
  • Proficiency with at least one major 3D electromagnetic simulation tool (e.g., TICRA, HFSS, CST)
  • Understanding of the trade-offs between different beamforming architectures (analog, digital, hybrid)
  • Familiarity with antenna measurement techniques and anechoic chamber testing
Benefits
  • Medical, dental, vision, basic and supplemental life insurance
  • Paid parental leave
  • Short and long-term disability
  • 401(k) with a company match of up to 5%
  • Education Support Program
