RF Antenna Engineer

About the Role

Responsibilities

• Architect the multi-radio systems, ensuring coexistence and optimal performance across a wide spectrum (sub-GHz to 8GHz+).
• Design and simulate custom, miniaturized antennas (LDS, FPC, or metal frame) that thrive in high-density environments.
• Partner with Industrial Design (ID) and Mechanical Engineering (ME) to find the "sweet spot" between aesthetic beauty and RF transparency.
• Develop RF strategies that prioritize ultra-low power consumption for battery-constrained performance.
• Own the product through EVT, DVT, and PVT phases, managing factory calibration, OTA testing, and global regulatory certifications (FCC/CE/PTCRB/GCF).
• Lead engagements with chipset vendors and antenna fabricators to push the limits of what is commercially possible.

Requirements

• 10+ years in RF/Antenna design, with at least 2 full lifecycles leading a high-volume consumer electronic product to mass market.
• Expert-level proficiency in ANSYS HFSS, CST Studio Suite, or similar EM simulation tools.
• Full-stack understanding of RF front-end (RFFE) design, including filters, switches, LNAs, and matching networks.
• Proven experience with 5G/4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6E/7, Bluetooth 5.x, GNSS (L1/L5), and UWB.
• Strong hands-on skills with VNA, Spectrum Analyzers, and Anechoic Chamber testing (TRP/TIS).
• Bonus Qualifications
• Experience with Human Body Interaction (SAR) and how it affects antenna tuning in wearables.
• A background in UWB (Ultra-Wideband) for precision ranging and spatial awareness.
• Compensation
• The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $120,000 - $300,000 annually.
• The pay offered for this position may vary based on several individual factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
