Tech Stack

Description

You will design, optimize, and operate RF communication links for airborne and ground segments, perform link budget analysis, and integrate RF modules for passive detection and localization of drones. You will drive the company's RF engineering capabilities through lab and field testing.

Requirements

• Solid fundamentals in RF, wireless communication, and the OSI model.
• Practical experience in delivering high-performance real-world wireless communication applications including link budget management and modeling.
• Experience with design and integration of radio location systems.
• Hands-on debugging mindset with common RF lab tools (spectrum analyzer/VSA, VNA, power meter, etc.).
• Practical experience in EMC/EMI, ideally in a military context.
• Knowledge in Python to automate analysis and configuration tasks (ideally).
• Proactive and organized team player.
• Valid work permit for Germany.
• Willingness to work in our lab on-site.

Responsibilities

• Design, optimize, and operate RF communication links for airborne and ground segments including deconfliction and EW scenarios.
• Own end-to-end link budgets and performance analysis (EIRP, SNR, Losses Eb/Eno).
• Integrate and maintain RF communication links into existing IP networks with high QoS.
• Define and integrate RF modules for passive RF-based detection and localization of drones.
• Support antenna/RF integration on airborne platforms including placement, cabling, radome effects, isolation, and EMC considerations.
• Drive the company’s RF engineering abilities, perform end-to-end tests in laboratory and field test sites.
