Job Description
Senior RF Design Engineer Paignton, Devon (Hybrid)
£80k + share options + benefits
This is a new electronics design engineer position that requires excellent RF design experience.
A senior RF design engineer is required to join a start-up involved with the research, development and design of optics / photonic technologies. Their technologies radically improve network speed and energy efficiency.
This RF design engineer role requires:
* Excellent RF schematic capture experience, working on 40 Ghz bandwidth circuits for high-speed network hardware.
* Experience of managing losses, impedance and managing material usage to optimise electronics design.
* You will work with suppliers to oversee, approve and deliver PCB layouts and will be involved with pre and post layout simulation and validation.
* Experience of using tools such as Ansys HFSS or ADS.
* Mixed signal hardware design experience. In addition, experience of high-speed optical transceiver design would be preferred.
You will need a strong RF electronics product development background and experience with high-speed network interface or optical transceiver products would be great.
RF design candidates may have worked in other arenas involving high-speed network technologies (e.g. network, and data centre hardware, telecoms systems, storage / servers / HPC, consumer electronics or specialist test and measurement products).
Skills / Experience required: Senior FPGA Design Engineer
* A degree or masters in a relevant subject area (e.g. electronics engineering)
* Experience of electronics / RF design for products used in high-speed networking applications – e.g. optical transceivers, network / data centre electronics, telecoms systems, storage / servers / HPC, consumer electronics or specialist test and measurement products
* Excellent RF schematic capture experience, working on 40Ghz bandwidth circuits for high-speed network hardware.
* Experience of managing losses, impedance and managing material usage to optimise electronics design.
* You will work with suppliers to oversee, approve and deliver PCB layouts and will be involved with pre and post layout simulation and validation.
* Experience of using tools such as Ansys HFSS, ADS and PADS.
* Mixed signal hardware design experience. In addition, experience of high-speed optical transceiver design would be preferred.
* Excellent communication, organisation and motivational skills.
* The ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, evolving, start-up organisation
* Knowledge of high-speed network interface design and optical transceiver systems would be preferable
The RF design engineer role is based on site in Paignton, Devon 5 days per week. Relocation assistance and working visas may be possible for the right candidate.
