Senior / Principal RF Design Engineer
Posted 1 hour 4 minutes ago by Matchtech
Are you passionate about pushing the boundaries of RF technology? Whether it's advanced robotic systems, sensors for autonomous drones, mobile ad-hoc radio networks, emergency service communications, IoT sensors, or even airborne and space-based radar - you'll have the opportunity to work on projects that are as varied as they are technically challenging.
This is an opportunity to join a leading UK technology consultancy that thrives on innovation. No two projects are ever the same - if you're an adaptable, curious engineer who enjoys solving complex problems and bringing new ideas to life, this could be the ideal next step.
The RoleWe're seeking an experienced RF Electronics Engineer to play a key role in the design, development, and testing of new RF-based systems and products. You'll work closely with a multi-disciplinary team, turning cutting-edge concepts into working prototypes and commercial solutions.
You'll also have the confidence to communicate complex technical ideas clearly to clients and colleagues from non-technical backgrounds.
Our facilities include state-of-the-art labs with advanced RF test and measurement equipment - spectrum and network analysers, anechoic chambers, and more - all designed to help you deliver your best work.
Key Skills & Experience- MEng (or equivalent) in Electronic Engineering or related discipline
- 6+ years' post-graduate experience designing RF-based circuits (e.g. radios, radars)
- Proven experience taking designs from concept through to verification
- Strong microwave, RF and analogue design and simulation skills
- Experience in amplifier, filter, and frequency synthesiser design
- Knowledge of radio and/or radar systems
- Team leadership or line management experience
- Digital circuit design experience
- mm-wave frequency design
- Competitive salary and package (level and title dependent on experience)
- Stimulating, varied work across multiple sectors
- Hybrid working and flexible hours
- Supportive, collaborative culture with regular social activities
- Career progression across technical, commercial, and managerial paths
- Full support for professional development and training
You'll be part of a highly skilled, multidisciplinary team working on real-world applications in defence, security, IoT, healthcare, automotive, and beyond. The workplace is based just south of Cambridge, offering easy access to the city and a vibrant, innovative engineering community.
