Original job description
Overview
The company’s RF team is dedicated to developing and advancing high-performance GNSS hardware for precision positioning across a wide range of industries.
We are looking for an RF Engineer to join the Hardware Development team in Calgary, Alberta. In this role, you will contribute to the design and validation of RF GNSS and anti-jam subsystems, playing a key part in the RF front-end of high-performance GNSS receiver and anti-jam products. You’ll work closely with a multidisciplinary team, supporting RF subsystem architecture, detailed design, simulation, testing, and integration of RF circuits, PCBs, and RF sub-systems.
Responsibilities
- Architecture, design, and development of RF front-end subsystems for GNSS receiver and anti-jam products
- Perform schematic design and collaborate on PCB layout for RF circuits, including filters, amplifiers, and matching networks
- Conduct simulations using industry-standard RF and EM simulation tools to validate circuit performance and optimise designs
- Execute bench-level testing, matching and hardware verification using RF lab equipment
- Assist in debugging and troubleshooting RF issues during prototyping and system integration
- Contribute to design peer reviews and documentation of technical decisions, test plans, and results
- Work closely with systems, digital, mechanical, PCB and manufacturing teams to ensure design robustness and product quality
- Participate in continuous improvement of RF design practices, test methodologies, and product development workflows
Qualifications | Must Have
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline with a focus on RF, Microwave, or Communications systems
- 2+ years of RF engineering experience focused on circuit-level design and analysis
- Familiarity with RF lab equipment such as spectrum analysers, network analysers (VNAs), signal generators, and oscilloscopes
- Understanding of RF circuit blocks, including filters, LNAs, mixers, oscillators, PLLs, splitters, and diplexers
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Effective verbal and written communication skills
- Ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment
