Antenna Engineer

Antenna Engineer

Design, develop, and support antenna products with emphasis in the following areas: Navigation (GPS/GNSS) antennas such as patch, stacked patch, and helical antennas Antenna array design using patch antennas and novel antenna elements for beamsteering and nullsteering systems Communications antennas including multi-band patch, helical, monopole, dipole, and inverted-F antennas Evaluate antenna performance, including gain, efficiency, bandwidth, impedance matching, radiation patterns, and polarization. Conduct measurements using vector network analyzers (VNAs) and anechoic chambers. Coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure antenna designs are manufacturable, repeatable, and cost-effective. Provide technical guidance on antenna placement or integration, grounding, shielding, keep-out zones, and mechanical design constraints. Perform occasional PCB layout and design modifications to support antenna integration, RF circuit implementation, and performance optimization. Analyze new business opportunities, develop & author technical proposal responses, and estimate project schedules and costs. Improve product manufacturing through test automation and automated data analysis. Lead and assist in the planning, testing, and documentation of product performance against industry requirements such as MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, DO-228, DO-301, and DO-160. Lead root cause analysis investigations and champion corrective actions.

A minimum of 2 years of related work experience. Level of position commensurate with experience and expertise. Experience with 3D EM simulation software (HFSS preferred) Experience working with network analyzers and other RF test equipment Experience testing antenna radiation patterns Understanding of antenna design for production and real-world environments Applicants for select positions that require access to information controlled by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations ("ITAR") or the Export Administration Regulations ("EAR") must be US Persons per ITAR *120.15 and EAR *772.1 (i.e., a U.S. citizen, U.S. permanent resident, or admitted to the U.S. as an asylee or refugee), or be otherwise eligible to obtain required authorization from the U.S. Government to access controlled information. Employment is contingent upon Antcom's ability to obtain such required authorization for the applicant. Key Success Factors: Focus on customer needs and innovate to meet those needs Thrive in a fast paced environment where you fill a variety of roles Plan, organize, and execute your work to meet schedule, cost, and technical requirements Communicate and collaborate effectively across departments and sites
