Jobbeschreibung

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for a hands‑on RF Engineer to design, build, and validate mission‑critical RF subsystems at the core of our products. In this role, you will own RF architectures from concept to field deployment, developing robust links for telemetry, control, and low‑latency video. You will work close to real hardware and real‑world constraints, directly shaping system performance and reliability.

The day‑to‑day

• Own the RF architecture: Design and integrate RF subsystems in the 1–10 GHz range for telemetry, control, and digital video links.
• Build from the ground up: Develop RF front‑ends (mixers, filters, LNAs, PAs, up/downconverters) and complete receive chains.
• Master antennas & links: Design and integrate antennas, tuners, and receiver systems—from schematic to validated field performance.
• Run the lab: Set up and operate advanced RF and mixed‑signal measurement environments (VNA, spectrum, noise, timing, power).
• Optimize real‑time video over RF: Tune low‑latency H.264/H.265 pipelines for robustness, range, and minimal delay.
• Test where it matters: Validate and iterate RF and link performance in real‑world field conditions, working closely with cross‑functional teams.

You should apply if you

• Have an RF engineering background: a degree in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, or a related field, plus strong hands‑on RF experience close to real hardware.
• Own end‑to‑end subsystems: take full responsibility for complex subsystems from first schematic to validated field deployment.
• Exhibit an empirical mindset: move fast—measure, analyze, iterate, and deliver practical results over theoretical perfection.
• Be decisive and resilient: make and defend technical decisions under pressure, even with tight constraints.
• Be built for real‑world performance: drive robustness, signal quality, and reliable systems outside the lab.
• Speak English; German is a plus.

Nice to haves

• FPGA & signal processing experience: work with FPGA‑based RF or video pipelines (e.g., Xilinx, Intel, basic HDL).
• Antenna & EM simulation knowledge: familiarity with tools like HFSS, CST, FEKO or comparable EM environments.
• Mission‑critical domain experience: background in UAV, aerospace, defense, or other safety‑critical systems.

What We Offer

• Real impact & ownership: shape high‑tech defense systems and take responsibility from day one.
• Mission‑driven environment: work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty.
• Competitive package: competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level.
• Deep tech environment: get hands‑on experience with cutting‑edge drone technology and real operational use cases.
• Grow fast: steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors.
• Startup mindset meets defence innovation: flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
• Flexibility: flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support.
• Strong team: international, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success.
