The Role – Junior RF & Antenna Design Engineer
As a Junior RF & Antenna Design Engineer, you’ll work closely with experienced engineers on the design and development of RF and antenna systems across a wide frequency range (HF to SHF). This Junior RF & Antenna Design Engineer role is hands-on - supporting simulation, design, prototyping and testing of real hardware, not just modelling.
You’ll be exposed to:
Antenna and RF subsystem design (HF–SHF)
Electromagnetic simulation (CST, HFSS, FEKO or similar)
RF circuit design and mixed-signal electronics
Lab-based testing, measurement and prototype build
Collaboration with global engineering teams and end customers
What they’re looking for
Degree in Electronic Engineering (ideally with RF/microwave or electromagnetics focus)
Some exposure to RF/antenna design - academic or industry
Familiarity with tools like CST, HFSS, ADS, AWR or similar
Solid grounding in electromagnetics and RF fundamentals
Practical mindset - comfortable building, testing and iterating hardware
Someone who can learn quickly and contribute in a fast-moving environment
Why consider this Junior RF xbpsjku & Antenna Design Engineer role
Direct access to senior technical leadership and complex design work
Strong learning curve in a genuinely hands-on RF environment
Small team, high impact - your work won’t be diluted
Exposure to international projects and real-world applications
A good step for someone early in their career who wants proper RF design experience, not just simulation work
