Job description

About the role:

As a Senior Wireless RF Systems Engineer at Mytra, you will lead the hardware development of our next-generation wireless products. This role focuses on board-level and system- level RF design, antenna integration, and hardware-to-software system validation. You will own the RF lifecycle from schematic capture and layout through to mass production of large scale wireless deployment and FCC certification.

What you’ll do:

• Board-Level and RF System Design: Own schematic design, component selection, and PCB layout routing for high-performance wireless systems (Wi-Fi, UWB, Wi-Fi HaLow, and Cellular).
• Enterprise AP Network Design: Experience of Enterprise AP network design and Mesh networking architectures to optimize hardware performance for complex structures
• Simulation & Tooling: Utilize AP network design tools and RF simulation software to model coverage, predict interference, and optimize hardware before deployment.
• Antenna & Desense Engineering: Drive antenna down selection and integration while actively mitigating RF desense issues across multi-radio systems and metal heavy environment
• Comprehensive RF Testing: Execute both conducted and radiated RF testing, alongside system-level verification across Wi-Fi, cellular, and sub-GHz frequencies.
• Compliance & Certification: Lead the preparation, troubleshooting, and execution of wireless products for RF FCC certification (including cellular carrier validation where applicable).
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with the EE and Wireless SW/FW teams to ensure seamless hardware-software integration and successful system bring-up.
• Mass Production: Guide designs through New Product Introduction (NPI) to high-volume manufacturing, ensuring high yields and robust production test plans.

Ideal Candidates:

• 5-10 years of hands-on experience in hardware-focused RF systems engineering.
• Proven track record shipping high-volume wireless systems (mass production experience).
• Good knowledge of Wi-Fi, UWB (Ultra-Wideband), Wi-Fi HaLow, and Cellular technologies.
• Good foundational understanding of Enterprise AP network design and Mesh networks.
• Hands-on experience with AP network design tools and RF simulation suites (e.g., Ekahau, Insite, CST, or ADS).
• Deep expertise in board-level RF schematic design, layout optimization, and impedance matching
• Extensive experience with laboratory equipment for conducted/radiated testing (e.g., network analyzers, anechoic chambers).
• Experience with regulatory compliance pipelines, specifically FCC certification.

Benefits Include:

• Competitive compensation and equity grants at a high-growth company backed by top-tier VCs
• Fully subsidized health coverage, including medical (baseline plans), dental, and vision for employees and dependents
• 401(k) plans and employer-subsidized life insurance
• Fully subsidized lunch and snacks at HQ-we eat and share stories together at the "long" table
• Generous PTO and company-paid holidays, including one week over the winter break so everyone can recharge together
• Voluntary pet insurance, Voluntary Life Insurance, Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity
• Fully subsidized tax advisory services and education to help you understand your equity
• Commuter benefits, including a up to $150 monthly commuter benefit
• Lively, modern combined office and lab space where we rapidly iterate through design, build, and test phases
• Fully equipped onsite gym and showers at headquarters
