Senior RF Design Engineer – RFID / Wireless Systems

As an Advanced RF/Antenna Engineer, you will own highly complex, board-level RF circuit and antenna designs from initial architecture and simulation through to lab debugging, regulatory compliance, and global factory bring-up. You are responsible for designing transmitters, receivers, and Antennas in the 800MHz to 8GHz range, In this hands-on role you will have the ability to innovate at the cutting edge of location technology and actively generate high-impact patents.

This role requires a minimum of 3-days per week in Long Island, 2 days remote (US).

Job Responsibilities:

• RF Receiver, Transmitter, and Antenna design, analysis and product integration.
  
• Conducts RF system implementation throughout a product design cycle.
  
• Designs Power Supplies, and other supporting circuits.
  
• Handles part selection, prototyping, factory bring up and lab bench debug and root cause analysis.
  
• Works with internal cross-functional teams and external JDM/CMs to successfully bring RFID products to market.
  
• Supports EMI/EMC trouble shooting and validation.
  
• Architects, designs, and supports development, and testing of RF design solutions to several highly- complex technical projects.
  
• Creates specifications and provides input for product requirements.
  
• Contributes to technology roadmap process.
  
• Prioritizes quality and seeks out improvements in all aspects of the RF projects.
