We are seeking an experienced Senior RF Engineer to support the planning, design, compliance, quality review, and delivery of Radio Access Network solutions. Experience with Canadian wireless-network deployments and regulatory requirements is preferred.
The role supports new-site builds, radio-network upgrades, relocations, capacity programs, COWs, and other wireless-network initiatives. The successful candidate will contribute across the RF engineering lifecycle, from capacity analysis and RF qualification through Final Cell Design, Safety Code 6 compliance, implementation support, acceptance, and closeout.
Candidates may specialize in RF Planning, RF Design, or SC6 and RF Compliance. Candidates with experience across multiple areas may be considered for senior or technical-lead responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform RF capacity, traffic, coverage and performance analysis.
• Identify coverage and capacity issues and recommend radio upgrades, carrier additions, spectrum additions, sector changes, or new-site solutions.
• Prepare RF Qualifications, coverage objectives, search maps, candidate assessments, coverage plots, and Proposed Antenna Layouts.
• Create and revise RF planning specifications for new builds, upgrades, relocations, temporary sites, and spectrum programs.
• Prepare RF engineering inputs for Land Acquisition Orders, Release for Engineering, and Full Build Specifications.
• Create, review, validate, and revise Final Cell Designs, including antenna, radio, baseband, sector, azimuth, height, tilt, MIMO, and connectivity information.
• Prepare and review CivilSub, RFWO, RF coupling diagrams, civil drawings, colocation forms, and RF inputs to installation and provisioning work orders.
• Perform or review Safety Code 6 studies, exposure calculations, site models, mitigation requirements, compliance reports, and professional engineering stamping packages.
• Support related compliance activities, including PIM assessments, airport runway pre-operation reports, EMCAB attestations, and antenna installation audits.
• Create and validate RF and technical Bills of Materials, ensuring consistency with planning specifications, FCDs, SC6 reports, and approved hardware configurations.
• Review antenna-placement, spacing, height, azimuth, radio, power, and configuration changes.
• Maintain accurate engineering information in ADM, Remedy, Jira, SharePoint, NetCracker, and other customer systems.
• Prepare RF closeout packages, as-built documentation, database updates, and final acceptance evidence.
• Review deliverables produced by internal teams and engineering partners and resolve customer comments, defects, and design inconsistencies.
• Coordinate with Planning, Real Estate, Site Acquisition, Civil, Equipment Engineering, Transport, Implementation, Field Operations, customers, and subcontractors.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Wireless Communications, or a related discipline.
• Five or more years of experience in RF planning, RAN design, wireless engineering, or a related field with Canadian cellular operators
• Knowledge of LTE and 5G NR radio-network planning and design.
• Hands-on experience with one or more of the following:
  • RF Qualification and coverage analysis
  • RF planning specifications
  • Final Cell Design
  • CivilSub or RF work-order design
  • Safety Code 6 or RF exposure compliance
• Strong understanding of antennas, radios, basebands, MIMO, RF cabling, sector configurations, azimuths, heights, tilts, power, and radio-to-antenna connectivity.
• Ability to interpret site surveys, civil drawings, construction drawings, structure information, and site photographs.
• Strong technical writing, documentation, problem-solving, and quality-review skills.
