What is the difference between Contract Rf Tester vs Contract Network Tester?

AspectContract Rf TesterContract Network Tester
CertificationsRF certifications, such as FCC or CENetworking certifications like Cisco CCNA or CompTIA Network+
Work EnvironmentTesting RF equipment, antennas, and wireless devicesTesting network infrastructure, switches, and routers
Industry UsageTelecommunications, wireless, and electronics manufacturingIT, telecommunications, and data centers

Contract Rf Testers focus on testing radio frequency devices and wireless systems, while Contract Network Testers specialize in evaluating network infrastructure and connectivity. Both roles require technical certifications and work in related industries, but they target different aspects of communication technology.

Job description

Skyways designs, builds, and operates fully autonomous long-range cargo aircraft. Founded in 2017, the company has spent the last eight years developing and deploying autonomous logistics systems for real-world operations.
Our V2 aircraft carries 30 lbs up to 500 miles, while our next-generation V3 carries 100 lbs over 1,000+ miles with 20+ hours of endurance. Both use a hybrid-electric architecture that takes off like a helicopter and cruises like a plane, enabling long-range autonomous delivery without traditional runway infrastructure.
Today, Skyways aircraft operate across three continents in controlled national airspace under FAA oversight and in support of U.S. military operations. We are transitioning from prototype development to full-rate production and scaling toward large autonomous cargo fleets.
Backed by Y Combinator and a $37M AFWERX STRATFI award from the U.S. Air Force, Skyways is creating a new form of transportation to advance our civilization from Austin, Texas.
The Opportunity
This role owns RF, communications, and EMI/EMC across our autonomous aircraft platforms.
You will design, integrate, and validate the systems that keep our aircraft connected and reliable in demanding real-world environments: telemetry, command-and-control, navigation, payload, and networking. You will also own EMI/EMC across the aircraft, diagnosing and mitigating the interference and coupling problems that surface when dense electronics, high-power systems, and sensitive RF all share one airframe.
This is a hands-on systems role. You will move between architecture and the bench, working across avionics, electrical, autonomy, and flight operations to solve problems that span interference, antenna integration, signal integrity, EMI/EMC, and long-range communications performance. Your work directly impacts connectivity, BVLOS capability, operational reliability, and system robustness across deployed fleets.
The ideal candidate has built and debugged RF and communications systems on aerospace, robotics, defense, or autonomous platforms, and has real EMI/EMC depth, not just familiarity.
What You'll Do:
  • Own RF and wireless communication systems for autonomous aircraft, from design through integration and validation
  • Own EMI/EMC analysis, mitigation, and validation across aircraft systems
  • Drive telemetry, command-and-control, payload, navigation, and networking systems
  • Debug RF performance issues across interference, signal quality, antenna performance, and integration
  • Diagnose and resolve EMI/EMC issues on integrated hardware, from component selection through aircraft-level test
  • Partner with avionics, electrical, autonomy, and flight operations teams through integration and testing
  • Lead RF and EMC validation across ground and flight testing in operational environments
  • Build test procedures, integration workflows, and troubleshooting processes for RF and EMC systems
  • Improve reliability, robustness, and scalability across deployed aircraft platforms

What You'll Bring:
  • 5+ years designing, integrating, and troubleshooting RF and communications systems, with end-to-end ownership of system-level problems
  • Hands-on EMI/EMC experience diagnosing and mitigating interference and coupling on integrated hardware, MIL-STD-461 or equivalent
  • Strong RF fundamentals including antennas, signal propagation, interference, and signal integrity
  • Experience with embedded systems, avionics, networking, or communications hardware
  • Proven track record debugging integrated hardware systems in lab and field environments
  • Fluency with RF and EMC test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, VNAs, oscilloscopes, SDR platforms, and EMC test setups
  • Ability to work across hardware, software, and operational teams to solve complex system issues
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills

Bonus Points:
  • Experience with aerospace, UAV, robotics, or defense systems
  • Experience with BVLOS communications or long-range telemetry systems
  • Familiarity with cellular, mesh, SATCOM, GNSS, or software-defined radio systems
  • EMC qualification and compliance testing to MIL-STD-461, DO-160, or equivalent
  • Amateur radio license or practical RF hobbyist experience
  • Experience supporting flight test or deployed field systems
