Summary
We are looking for a Senior RF Antenna Design Engineer to help develop next generation of satellite communication antenna systems. Reporting to the Director, you will lead EM simulations, measurements, and analysis for dielectric lenses, feed antennas, and phased arrays. This role focuses on designing and optimising antennas using EM simulations and prototypes. Experience in phased arrays, transmit, RF lenses, microstrip antennas, and metamaterials is highly valuable. Knowledge of RF circuits, scripting, and RF measurement tools is a plus.
Key Responsibilities:
Design and analyse antennas (feed antennas, dielectric lenses, arrays, radomes).
Develop antennas for manufacturing and prototypes.
Analyse results using Matlab and Python to optimise models.
Lead or assist in antenna testing and measurements.
Present findings through reports and slides.
Requirements:
5 years in antenna design and analysis (lenses, phased arrays, radomes, beamforming).
Proficient in EM simulation tools like HFSS, CST, or FEKO.
Strong skills in Matlab, Python, and RF testing equipment.
Experience with Linux and leadership abilities
