RF Automation and Test Development Engineer (27598)

Based at offices in north Cambridge (close to rail and road links), this communications engineering company are hiring for an experienced engineer to work on RF automation and test development projects. The position works closely with the existing development team, providing analytics and measurements from RF hardware that feeds into future version hardware product iterations. This requires excellent documentation skills and strong attention to details for complex RF measurements. Key areas include: developing robust test setups to evaluate product performance (such as transmitters and receivers) according to 3GPP-aligned RF measurements; providing feedback to design and systems teams to support optimisation and engineering decisions; develop automated scripts to ensure reproducibility; and working to accepted global RF test standards.

Requirements:

• Degree in Electronics or similar, and demonstrable industry experience of RF concepts within the telecommunications product sector.
• Experience with RF test equipment and understanding of 3GPP-based measurements for cellular systems.
• Experience in test automation using Python or MATLAB.
• Exposure to hands-on soldering experience for printed circuit boards.

Whilst this is a hands-on role, a good level of applied RF theory is expected as the position would collaborate with others within the team. On offer is an excellent compensation package including company share options.
