  • 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.
  • Collaborate closely 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.
  • Maintain design documentation and contribute to configuration management and version control.
  • Preferred Skills and Experience :

  • Experience with RF circuit design, including filters, LNAs, mixers, and impedance-matched networks.
  • Knowledge of antenna design and integration for applications including GNSS, SATCOM, cellular, telemetry, etc.
  • Experience designing low power and ultra low power embedded devices
  • Hands-on experience with RF simulation tools such as CST, HFSS, or Keysight ADS.
  • Familiarity with military standards (MIL-STD) related to microelectronics
  • Background in 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) Compensation :

    Compensation at SimVentions is determined by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the candidate’s experience, education, training, security clearance, work location, skills, knowledge, and competencies, as well as alignment with our corporate compensation plan and contract specific requirements.
