Senior RF Front-End & Antenna Hardware Designer

Albelissa Engineering, IT & Digital Solutions; Piemonte; In loco; EUR 40.000 - 50.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Albelissa Engineering, IT & Digital Solutions in Italy seeks a Hardware Electronics Designer to own RF front-end and antenna hardware for an X-band AESA radar payload used in in‑orbit Rendezvous and Proximity Operations. The role requires end‑to‑end hardware ownership and coordination with subcontractors.

You will lead RF hardware design, interface with software teams for HW/SW integration, and ensure qualification for space—adhering to ECSS guidelines and space environment constraints.

Competenze

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronic, Telecommunications, or RF Engineering.
• 3+ years RF/microwave hardware design experience with real builds and measurements.
• Hands‑on RF testing with VNA, spectrum analyzers, and signal generators.
• High‑frequency PCB design with controlled impedance and RF layout.
• Experience owning a subsystem end-to-end and coordinating external suppliers.
• Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or equivalent for RF modeling.

Mansioni

• Lead RF/microwave front-end design: T/R modules, LNAs, PAs, filters, mixers, switches, beamforming network.
• Design AESA antenna/phased array feed network with beam-steering capabilities.
• Produce RF PCB designs including impedance stack‑ups, RF routing, grounding, shielding, and cavity resonance mitigation.
• Define calibration approaches for phased array and RF chain.
• Lead hardware integration verification and validation from plan to in‑orbit validation.
• Characterize performance with RF lab equipment and correlate measurements with predictions.
• Coordinate with subcontractors for digital/FPGA boards, mechanical/thermal, and PCB fabrication.
