About the Role

Drive the design, development, integration, and testing of advanced Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities on STARK’s platforms. Take ownership of critical hardware and RF systems from concept to layout to simulation, ensuring platforms maintain peak performance and deliver decisive overmatch in complex, highly dynamic RF environments.

Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end board design utilizing Altium Designer, implementing High-Density Interconnect (HDI) techniques and routing high-frequency interfaces.
• Design, simulate, and implement custom RF components and matching networks tailored for contested environments.
• Conduct rigorous antenna design and placement simulations using CST Studio Suite and Altair FEKO to optimize system-level RF performance across unmanned platforms.
• Own the mechanical packaging and electro-mechanical design of boards, working closely with other disciplines to ensure seamless hardware-software integration.
• Define and execute strict testing, debugging, and validation protocols to guarantee system stability and survivability.

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional engineering experience in electronic, RF, or hardware systems development.
• Extensive hands-on experience with board design in Altium, specifically dealing with HDI techniques, complex layer stacks, and high-speed/high-frequency signal integrity.
• Demonstrated proficiency in designing matching networks and simulating RF components, with direct experience using CST and/or Altair FEKO for antenna placement and optimization.
• Strong foundational understanding of how individual RF and electronic components impact the broader system architecture.
• A proven self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, small-team environment and is unafraid to tackle technical challenges outside of their primary domain.
• Exceptional ability to debug complex, multi-disciplinary system issues at the intersection of hardware, RF, and software.
• Professional background in Defense, Aerospace, Telecommunications, or other high-performance, high-reliability hardware industries.
• Applied experience with the RF spectrum, signal processing, or software-defined radios (SDR).
