An RF Antenna Systems Engineer is required to take a key role in the product development of Phased Array SatCom antennas. Providing system development, integration and testing for RF antennas with a focus on hands-on experimental verification and validation. The role provides opportunities to develop technical expertise in antenna systems, while contributing as a key member of the engineering team.

The ideal candidate will feel comfortable owning test facilities and system development; from concept, through to technical modelling, lab verification and field testing on operational satellite links. Collaborating with other engineering teams to provide guidance and feedback on system performance will be key. 

The small and dynamic nature of the engineering team allows for this role to span multiple aspects of the product development lifecycle, providing excellent development opportunities in a fast paced, agile, environment.

Technical Responsibilities: 

• Perform RF testing and Antenna level functional tests of pre-production hardware sub-assemblies and system software
• Develop, test and improve mathematical algorithms for the system operation
• Develop methods and engineering software to improve testing and analysis
• Take ownership of RF test facilities, continuously improving the design, test methods and quality.
• Characterise and analyse the antenna system performance on both near field and far field RF test ranges
• Support the wider technical deliverables required for product development, such as lifecycle management, methods development, peer reviews, procurement support and lab testing

Organisational Responsibilities:

• Work with the engineering teams across multiple disciplines to integrate technology requirements into the systems, software, electrical and RF design
• Take responsibility for own projects and delivery to tight timescales, communicating through plans, presentations and written reports
• Lead small engineering teams and subcontractors for design, analysis and testing
• The role will be primarily based at the company’s London office, but periodic travel to an offsite testing facility in Essex will be required
