RF Engineer (Radar & High-Frequency Systems)

Quick Facts

• Role: RF Engineer (Radar & High-Frequency Systems)

Description

Design and optimize miniaturized radar and sensor hardware with a focus on high-frequency RF PCB development. You will develop RF front ends for FMCW and pulsed radar, integrate and control radar and beamformer ICs, and improve assemblies through measurement-driven analysis. You will also support calibration, EMC/shielding concepts, and system integration and testing.

Responsibilities

• Develop and design high-frequency PCBs for radar and sensor systems
• Design hardware for FMCW and pulsed radar systems
• Integrate RF assemblies for pulsed radar systems
• Integrate and control modern radar and beamformer ICs
• Design and characterize RF front ends and beamformer assemblies
• Analyze and optimize RF and radar assemblies through measurement
• Develop EMC, shielding, and RF enclosure concepts
• Implement calibration, self-test, and diagnostic functions
• Support integration, commissioning, validation, and system testing
• Contribute to concepts for thermal management of high-power RF systems
• Collaborate with Engineering and Product Development to design, simulate, and optimize RF PCBs and radar subsystems (including pulsed RF frontends, beamformer ICs, and phased-array architectures)
• Contribute to enhancing radar capabilities through precision engineering and innovation

Requirements

• Completed degree in electrical engineering, communications engineering, or high-frequency engineering
• Several years of experience in RF and high-frequency PCB design
• Very good knowledge of Altium Designer
• Experience in hardware design of radar or high-frequency systems, preferably pulse radar
• Experience with beamforming, phased arrays, or beamformer ICs
• Knowledge of EMC-compliant design, shielding, and RF enclosure techniques
• Experience with signal integrity and power integrity in high-frequency layouts
• Experience in calibration of transmit/receive arrays
• Experience with RF measurement equipment, such as network analyzers and spectrum analyzers
