Further responsibilities include identifying and tracking RF technical performance measures (TPMs), conducting system and subsystem trade studies, and supporting CAIV analysis. The role also contributes to lifecycle considerations, including cost, reliability, availability, maintainability, and overall system effectiveness.
Responsibilities
Develop innovative RF engineering solutions to complex technical challenges aligned with programme and organisational objectives.
Work independently with limited direction, with outputs reviewed upon completion against departmental standards and objectives.
Contribute to major engineering work packages and may take on technical leadership responsibilities within RF-focused programmes.
Engage with senior engineers and stakeholders on significant technical matters, influencing system design and programme direction.
Contribute to the development of new RF concepts and solutions, applying deep technical expertise and industry knowledge to advance capability across the organisation.
Required skills, qualifications and experience
Experience in RF engineering or a related technical discipline.
Strong experience in RF circuit design, microwave systems, and subsystem integration.
Proven ability to develop and optimise RF system architectures, including antennas, transmitters, and receivers.
Experience with RF testing, performance analysis, and validation against system requirements.
Strong understanding of RF system trade studies, link analysis, and performance modelling.
Degree or equivalent qualification in Electrical Engineering, RF Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline.
