Spacecraft Microwave RF Hardware Intern

Stfrancis; San Francisco (CA); Presencial; USD 33.000 - 47.000; A tiempo parcial

Descripción de la vacante

Stfrancis is seeking an enthusiastic student intern to work on designing, simulating, and measuring RF sub-systems for microwave frequencies. You will build and test LNAs, PA, down converters, filters, and oscillators, then integrate these modules into spacecraft hardware with the team.

The role emphasizes hands-on hardware development, using RF test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, and signal generators.

Formación

• Enrolled in BS EE, physics, or related field.
• Strong hands-on hardware development mindset.
• Solid RF fundamentals: transmission lines, impedance matching, filters.
• Experience designing, building, testing RF hardware.
• Familiar with RF simulation tools (ADS, HFSS).
• Experience with RF measurements (spectrum analyzers, network analyzers).
• Applicants encouraged even if not meeting all criteria.
