- Create and optimise RF circuits such as amplifiers, filters and frequency synthesisers, ensuring high performance across a range of innovative projects
- Drive product development from initial concept through schematic design, simulation, prototyping, verification and final delivery
- Perform hands-on laboratory work, including measurement, characterisation and troubleshooting using state-of-the-art equipment (spectrum/network analysers, anechoic chambers, etc.)
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate RF subsystems into wider system architectures, contributing technical insight and creative solutions
- Translate complex technical concepts into clear, accessible explanations for non-technical clients and stakeholders
- Contribute to project planning, providing input on feasibility, risk, timescales and technical approach
- Stay up to date with emerging RF technologies, tools and methodologies, helping to drive innovation across ongoing and future projects
Requirements
- Degree-qualified with a strong MEng (or equivalent) in Electronic Engineering or a closely related discipline
