A career at MAC Ltd is going to suit you if you have a broad electronic engineering skillset and love tackling complex challenges.
Unlike other careers where you get pigeonholed, we want you to explore your full range of skills and interests. No two projects are the same, so you can expect to use your digital design, systems modelling, software development, electronic design and problem-solving skills to develop innovative solutions - optimising the performance of communications equipment that operates in challenging environments.
You will be working as part of an elite team to deliver new communication systems and products, and you will actively participate in all phases of a project. Our success is based on hand-picking, training and mentoring exceptional electronic engineers, building a team that’s able to take on and solve the most difficult engineering problems.
You’re going to be working alongside some of the industry’s top experts, fast-tracking your knowledge in the technologies that are driving the worldwide growth in wireless communications.
We currently have vacancies in our team for talented engineers with strong skills in digital design and experience in wireless technology.
We are particularly looking for degree qualified electronics engineers with significant experience in wireless technology, embedded systems, or software defined radio, and experience in some or all of the following areas:
* FPGA design, including experience in languages such as VHDL, Verilog and High-Level Synthesis Modelling tools such as MATLAB and Simulink
* Radio communications and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques
* Software Defined Radio (SDR) and RF techniques
* Development of communication waveforms
* Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML)
MAC Ltd was founded in 1986 by Professor Raymond Steele, one of the Founding Fathers of modern-day mobile communications, to tackle the engineering challenges of taking mobile communications from an expensive and luxury item, which was only accessible to business executives and professional users, to the smart phones that we see today that are accessible to everyone.
He achieved this by hand-picking, training and mentoring exceptional electronic engineers to build a world-class team that were able to take on and solve the most difficult engineering problems. The current owners and senior leadership of MAC Ltd were part of this early team and we continue Professor Steele’s successful approach today.
Everything we do at MAC Ltd is focused on the radio interface between wireless devices. This has included developing improved modulation and radio access schemes, improving the ability of devices to cope with increasing interference, developing radio spectrum sharing approaches and providing products to test and validate radio communication systems. We have worked on every generation of mobile phone technology, from the early analogue devices to today’s 5G smart phones. We have also worked across many sectors including telecommunications, public safety, defence and security.
Our success is built on a culture of diversity and inclusion and bringing together people with different experience, backgrounds, skills, perspectives and life experiences into a cohesive and supportive team.
