  • Integrate various sensors (IMUs, GPS, environmental, etc.) and communication modules (LTE, UHF, SATCOM, etc.) into embedded and modular systems.
  • Develop and integrate RF front-ends and antennas for secure communications and sensor applications.
  • Perform schematic capture, BOM generation, layout, and detailed documentation for design reviews and production.
  • Work collaboratively with firmware, mechanical, systems, and test engineers to deliver ruggedized and SWaP-optimized solutions.
  • Conduct signal integrity analysis, power distribution verification, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) assessments.
  • Support environmental and compliance testing, including EMI / EMC, shock, vibration, and thermal tests.
  • Maintain design documentation and contribute to configuration management and version control.
  • Preferred Skills and Experience :

  • Background in RF circuit design, including filters, LNAs, mixers, and impedance-matched networks.
  • Knowledge of antenna design and integration for GNSS, SATCOM, cellular, telemetry, etc.
  • Experience in designing low power and ultra-low power embedded devices.
  • Hands-on experience with RF simulation tools like CST, HFSS, or Keysight ADS.
  • Familiarity with military standards (MIL-STD) related to microelectronics.
  • Experience with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and interface protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet).
  • Experience in end-to-end lifecycle development for defense platforms.
  • Education : Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (Master's preferred).
