About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Lead RF Systems Engineer to drive the architecture, development, integration, and delivery of advanced RF and microwave hardware and systems for next-generation defense applications. This is a hands-on technical leadership role responsible for defining RF/Telecom system architecture at the product and platform level, designing RF devices, circuits, and hardware modules, making complex technical decisions, guiding multidisciplinary engineering teams, and supporting products throughout the full development lifecycle. The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in RF and microwave system design with strong technical leadership skills and experience delivering complex, high-reliability products in regulated environments. This role is focused on RF/microwave product and system development rather than cellular network planning, RAN optimization, or RF site deployment.

Responsibilities

Define and develop RF/Telecom system architecture at the product and platform level, and develop innovative engineering approaches for advanced RF and microwave systems.
Lead low-level RF device, circuit, and hardware module design, including component selection, schematic development, simulation, PCB implementation, prototype bring-up, and design optimization.
Provide hands-on technical leadership and make independent, complex engineering decisions across multidisciplinary teams.
Lead RF engineering projects from concept and architecture through detailed design, integration, validation, production, and sustainment - balancing performance, cost, manufacturability, compliance, and reliability.
Perform and guide RF system-level analysis, including link budgets, performance analysis, and technical trade-off evaluations; conduct design reviews and architecture assessments.
Guide RF design analysis and optimization across areas such as gain, noise figure, linearity, impedance matching, phase noise, interference, and overall RF signal-chain performance.
Develop validation strategies, verification plans, test methodologies, and scalable RF designs suitable for production and future platform growth.
Lead RF system integration, troubleshooting, testing, and performance validation, and ensure compliance with applicable regulatory standards (FCC, ETSI, and related certifications).
Establish and promote engineering best practices across all stages of the product development lifecycle.
Organize, coordinate, mentor, and lead RF engineering teams, and participate in technical interviews and engineering hiring decisions.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related technical discipline, or equivalent relevant professional experience.
6+ years of professional experience designing and developing RF/microwave hardware, devices, subsystems, or products, with expertise in RF/Telecom system architecture at the product and platform level.
Demonstrated hands-on experience with low-level RF device, circuit, or hardware module design—not solely RF network design, optimization, integration, testing, or tuning.
Experience with RF component selection, schematic design, circuit simulation, PCB design/layout considerations, prototype bring-up, debugging, and design validation.
Strong understanding of RF design fundamentals and system-level analysis, including gain, noise figure, linearity, impedance matching, link budgets, and RF performance trade-offs.
Experience leading engineering teams and providing technical direction across complex, cross-functional development projects, with the ability to independently assess technical risk.
Working knowledge of regulatory standards and certification requirements, including FCC, ETSI, and related compliance frameworks, and experience supporting RF products from prototype bring-up through production.
Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for employer-sponsored visa support, now or in the future.
Applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, refugee, or asylee, or otherwise eligible to access export-controlled information.
