Electrical Engineer
I'm working with a well-funded defense tech company developing next-generation RF hardware for demanding real-world applications.
They're looking for an experienced RF PCB Design Engineer to take technical ownership of complex, high-performance circuit boards, working on products where signal integrity, reliability and manufacturability are critical.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys being hands-on, solving challenging engineering problems and seeing their designs progress from concept through to production.
The Role:
Lead schematic capture, PCB layout and multilayer board design for RF applications.
Design and optimize controlled-impedance signal paths, grounding, shielding and RF performance.
Work across the full hardware development lifecycle, from initial design through prototyping, testing and production.
Collaborate with engineers across electronics, mechanical and systems disciplines.
Support design verification, troubleshooting and improvements to performance, reliability and manufacturing yield.
Influence technical decisions and help establish best practices as the engineering function grows.
What We're Looking For:
Strong commercial experience designing RF or high-frequency PCBs.
Excellent understanding of RF layout principles, signal integrity, impedance control and multilayer stackups.
Proficiency with Altium Designer or KiCad.
Experience taking PCB designs through fabrication, assembly and testing.
Someone comfortable taking ownership, making engineering decisions and delivering in a fast-moving environment.
Radar, wireless communications, aerospace, defense or advanced sensing systems.
Electromagnetic simulation and RF modelling.
Design for manufacture (DFM) and experience supporting production.
Previous experience in a startup or smaller engineering environment.
Why Consider It? You'll have significant technical ownership, direct influence over product development and the opportunity to work on sophisticated RF technology alongside a highly capable engineering team.
The business is well-funded, growing and offers a competitive compensation package including equity.
