RF Engineer

You closely collaborate from highly qualified innovative RF/Antenna Design Engineers to define simulate and test and characterize RF sub-systems and antennas. When something does not get as expected, you enjoy investigating to identify the Root Cause. Accurately documenting and communicating your work is important for you. You work with early-stage demonstrators, as well as new industrialized designs ready for mass production. These topnotch sub-systems allow our team to deliver the best performing Phased Array Antenna systems, as defined in our long-term airborne and land-mobile product roadmap. Thanks to our friendly working environment, highly performing equipment and continuous improvement approach, our organization supports you to best perform in your duties. We seek a meticulous, open-minded and well-organized person, motivated to perform multiple tasks in a wide-ranging environment. You enjoy taking ownership of the agreed work and completing it autonomously. When needed, you easily ask for support from our multi-disciplinary engineering team, and collaborate with external partners and laboratories. Great teammate, problem solver and hands-on engineer, you never hesitate to take the extra step for the team to succeed.
