Contract RF Design Engineer - Paignton, Devon
Duration: 6 months initially
Rate: Open (typically £65-75ph ltd) Outside of IR35
This is a new electronics design engineer position that requires excellent RF design experience. An experienced 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.
Responsibilities:
* Excellent RF schematic capture experience, ideally working on 40 GHz bandwidth circuits for high-speed network hardware (or with a strong understanding of the practices required).
* Experience of managing losses, impedance, and managing material usage to optimise electronics design.
* Work with suppliers to oversee, approve, and deliver PCB layouts, and 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. Experience of high-speed optical transceiver design is preferred.
You will need a strong RF electronics product development background, and experience with high-speed network interface or optical transceiver products would be advantageous, gained in a commercial product development environment.
Skills / Experience Required:
* A degree or master's 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).
* Knowledge of high-speed network interface design and optical transceiver systems would be preferable.
The Contract 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.
