Rf Lab information

What is the difference between Rf Lab vs RF Engineer?

AspectRf LabRF Engineer
CredentialsTypically requires a degree in electrical engineering or related fieldRequires a degree in electrical engineering, RF engineering, or similar; often includes certifications like FCC or CE
Work EnvironmentLaboratory setting focused on testing, measurement, and development of RF componentsDesign, testing, and troubleshooting RF systems in labs or field environments
Industry UsageCommonly used in research, development, and testing phases within telecom, aerospace, and electronics industriesApplied in product design, deployment, and maintenance of wireless communication systems

In summary, an Rf Lab is a facility or department focused on RF testing and development, while an RF Engineer is a professional who designs and implements RF systems. Both roles require similar educational backgrounds and certifications, but their focus differs: labs concentrate on testing and research, whereas engineers focus on system design and deployment.

Is RF Lab engineering in demand?

RF Lab engineering is in demand due to the growing need for wireless communication, 5G technology, and advanced RF systems. Professionals with skills in RF design, testing, and troubleshooting are sought after in telecommunications, aerospace, and defense industries.

Job description

Overview

We're looking for an RF Electrical Engineer to take ownership of our spacecraft's TT&C (Telemetry, Tracking & Command) radios - the S-Band link that keeps our satellites talking to the ground.

You'll own this subsystem end to end: architecture, link budgets, PCB design, and the antenna interface, built to survive the harshest environment there is. This is a hands-on, cross-disciplinary role working directly with electrical, systems, mechanical, and software engineers to ship a critical piece of hardware that flies.

What You'll Own
  • End-to-end design of the satellite's S-Band radio - schematic capture, PCB layout, and component selection, in close coordination with antenna design engineers
  • Spacecraft radio link budgets across all mission phases
  • EMI/EMC compliance and spaceflight reliability across the design
  • Electrical and RF test/validation at unit, subsystem, and system level
  • Hardware bring-up, debugging, and performance tuning in lab and flight environments
What You Bring
  • B.S. in Electrical Engineering or related field (M.S. a plus)
  • Hands-on experience with RF/electrical engineering, including PCB design with RF layout and routing
  • Proficiency with RF/EM tools: HFSS, ADS, or MATLAB
  • Working knowledge of EMI/EMC standards and practices (e.g., MIL-STD-461)
  • Experience with digital interfaces relevant to radio integration (UART, SPI, I2C, Ethernet)
  • Hands-on lab experience: oscilloscopes, network analyzers, signal generators
  • Strong documentation habits and cross-functional communication
Strongly Preferred
  • Experience designing RF/electronics for space or spacecraft systems
  • Exposure to radiation-tolerant component selection and thermal/vacuum design constraints
For U.S. Roles

To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the United States (i.e. Green Card holder), or other protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3).

For U.K. Roles

To comply with U.K. regulations, this role requires Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) checks, and successful candidates must be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC).

For Canada Roles

Successful candidates must obtain and hold a security clearance at the reliability status level, and pass security assessment for the Canadian Controlled Goods Program (CGP) and ITAR.

We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
