- Technical Support and Troubleshooting: Act as a technical authority on RF issues, collaborating with colleagues across engineering disciplines to ensure optimal product performance.

- Independent Work: You will primarily work solo, managing your own projects and independently troubleshooting and testing your designs.

- Collaboration and Leadership: Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the department’s growth and process improvements by documenting and sharing technical insights.


What We’re Looking For:

- Experience: Radio Frequency design or related roles within a commercial environment.

- Technical Expertise: Proficiency in PCB design software and RF simulation tools; experience with RF amplifiers, filters, antennas, and EMC; and solid understanding of analogue and digital electronics.

- Innovation and Impact: Be at the forefront of secure RF technology solutions for critical national security and defence applications.

- Professional Growth: Access cutting-edge resources and work alongside a passionate, high-performing team in a collaborative environment.

- Global Opportunities: As part of SPX Technologies, ECS offers the stability and resources of a global organisation, combined with the agility of a specialised engineering team.
