RF Antenna Engineer - Low Frequency ( HFSS & Anechoic Chamber) Job Type: Full-Time, Hybrid, Must have full working rights within the US Salary: up to $210,000 Gross Per Annum + Stocks + Healthcare Have you thought about working on systems that eliminate wireless dead-zones? What about an opportunity to get stuck in with plasmonic RF systems? An exciting opportunity for a hands-on RF antenna engineer with deep experience in low-frequency and electrically small antenna design to join a multidisciplinary engineering team working on state-of-art communication systems breaking the wireless dead-zones. You will focus on the end-to-end development of novel, non-traditional antenna systems; from fundamental electromagnetic concept development and full-wave simulation through prototyping, anechoic-chamber measurements, and performance optimization. This is a highly practical environment and role for engineers who enjoy solving real-world antenna challenges, particularly those associated with size-constrained and low-frequency systems, and who are comfortable validating designs through measurement and experimentation. Your Activities Design and develop low-frequency through C-band antennas for real-world, size-constrained applications Lead antenna development from concept and physics-based modeling through prototype build, test, and iteration Perform 3D full-wave electromagnetic simulations using ANSYS HFSS Optimize antenna performance including impedance matching, radiation efficiency, bandwidth, and radiation patterns Design and evaluate matching networks and tuning approaches for electrically small antennas Plan and conduct antenna measurements in anechoic chambers and other relevant test environments Your Background Bachelor's, Master's or Ph.D in Electrical Engineering, RF engineering or a closely related field 10+ years of professional RF design experience, and 5+ years of antenna design experienceStrong hands-on experience with low-frequency or electrically small antenna design Strong proficiency with ANSYS HFSS or an equivalent full-wave EM simulation tool Demonstrated experience performing antenna measurements in an anechoic chamber 5V Tech are acting as an Employment Agency for the purposes of this job vacancy. We offer a reward scheme if you can recommend someone for this position, up to $250 for you and an additional $250 to a charity of your choice, 5V Tech are recognised talent solutions experts within IoT and Deep Tech working across Europe, the UK and North America.
