The Higher Senior RF Engineer plays a key role in the design, development, and delivery of high-performance RF and mmWave products and solutions. This role involves advanced technical expertise in RF/microwave engineering, hands-on design and test, problem-solving, and close collaboration with cross-disciplinary teams to ensure successful project execution.

The Higher Senior RF Engineer is responsible for delivering robust RF designs, supporting technology development, maintaining high engineering standards, and contributing to the company’s product roadmap.

Requirements

  • Conduct RF system analysis, performance optimisation, and troubleshooting of complex designs
  • Carry out RF measurements, characterisation, and validation of prototypes and production hardware
  • Develop and maintain detailed technical documentation, including design reports, test plans, and results
  • Ensure designs meet required specifications, standards, and customer requirements
  • Contribute to technology and product roadmaps with innovative RF design solutions
  • Support RFQs, proposals, and customer engagements with technical input where required

Project & Product Management:

  • Work with project managers and engineering leads to deliver designs on time, within budget, and to agreed quality standards
  • Support the transition of designs from concept through prototyping into volume manufacturing
  • Collaborate with process engineering and operations to ensure manufacturability and yield of RF products
  • Assist in risk identification and mitigation during the design and development process

Collaboration & Communication:

  • Work closely with electronics, mechanical, software, and systems engineers to deliver integrated solutions
  • Provide technical expertise and support to internal and external stakeholders, including customers
  • Present technical work and project updates to peers, management, and customers as required

The above provides an overview of the key responsibilities for this role; however, duties may evolve to meet the needs of the business and customer requirements.
