About the position
Would you like to work on advanced robotic systems or sensors for autonomous drones? What about mobile ad-hoc radio networks, messaging systems for the emergency services or internet of things sensors? How do you fancy airborne or space-based radars? These are all current or recent projects at Plextek and we need the brightest minds joining our diverse team to deliver them.
Our work is largely driven by technical development and innovation. One of the great advantages of working here is that no two projects are the same. If you are an enthusiastic, adaptable and motivated person with a background in engineering, who thrives on variety, enjoys learning new skills and facing exciting challenges then this is the place to be.
THE ROLE
We are looking for an experienced senior RF electronics engineer to join the team, possessing the experience necessary to play a key role in designing, building and testing new RF-based systems and products. In addition to the technical skills necessary, you will be comfortable explaining complex technical matters to non-technical customers.
The role provides the opportunity to work with a team to follow exciting new ideas through from concept into reality. You will have the satisfaction of working with a supportive and experienced team of subject matter experts, in a state-of-the-art electronics lab containing the latest test and measurement equipment (spectrum/network analysis/anechoic chambers).
Key desired skills and experience
- Good MEng in electronic engineering (or similar discipline).
- 6+ years post-graduate experience in designing RF-based circuits (e.g. for radios and/or radars).
- Experience developing products and modules from concept through to successful design verification.
- Good microwave, RF and analogue design and simulation skills. RF amplifier, filter and frequency synthesiser design.
- Experience of relevant open architecture standards such as OpenCPI, STICS or SOSA
- Advantageous but not essential:
- Radio and/or radar systems knowledge
- Team leadership and/or line management experience
- Experience of mm-wave frequency design.
THE REWARDS
In return, we offer a competitive package and a stimulating environment that will encourage you to be your best. Salary and job title will be based on the level of the candidate’s experience and expertise. We provide all the training, professional development and support that you need to complete your projects. We are a versatile business and are able to support career progression in many dimensions including technical, commercial and managerial.
