Descripción de la vacante

Indra Space in Madrid is seeking a skilled RF Design Engineer with strong experience in RF transmission and reception architectures across multiple bands. The ideal candidate will design detailed RF architectures, mixed analog/digital designs, and compact RF circuits, including System-on-Chip solutions.

Responsibilities include RF power amplifier design, RF component simulations with ADS, LTSPICE, and CST/HFSS, lab measurements, and system-level integration.

Formación

• Proven experience in RF transmission and reception across multiple bands.
• Strong knowledge of RF Power Amplifiers (GaN/GaAs/LDMOS) and high-efficiency designs.
• Experience with mixed-signal design and compact RF circuits/SoC RF solutions.
• Hands-on with RF lab instrumentation and RF component simulations (ADS/LTSPICE).
• Familiarity with oscillators, PLLs, modulators/demodulators, and RF synthesis.

Responsabilidades

• Design detailed RF architectures for transmission and reception in multiple bands.
• Develop mixed analog/digital designs and compact RF circuits including SoC RF solutions.
• Design and analyze RF Power Amplifiers (GaN, GaAs, LDMOS, high-efficiency).
• Perform RF component simulations (linear and nonlinear) with ADS or similar tools.
• Conduct analog simulations using LTSPICE or equivalent.
• Operate RF lab equipment: spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators.
• Contribute to documentation, design justification, and system-level integration.

Indra Space - Leading the Next Generation of Space Systems

Our ambition? To become a leading company in end-to-end satellite systems, driving innovation in:

• Position, Navigation & Timing (PNT)
• Secure Communications
• Earth Observation & ISR
• Space Domain Awareness (SDA) and Space Traffic Management (STM)
• Science & space exploration

As the Space Business Unit of Indra Group, we combine cutting-edge technology with a full value chain approach—from satellite design and integration to ground segment and operations. With the integration of Deimos and strategic participation in Hispasat and Hisdesat, we are scaling Europe’s space autonomy and contributing to flagship programs like IRIS², Galileo, EGNOS, and Copernicus.

We are looking for a skilled RF Design Engineer with strong experience in RF transmission and reception architectures across different frequency bands. The ideal candidate is proficient in mixed‑signal design, compact RF integrated circuits, RF power amplifiers, and simulation of linear and nonlinear RF components.

• Design detailed RF architectures for transmission and reception in multiple bands.
