Full Job Description
What you will be doing
As a Senior RF Engineer II (Hardware), you will own the technical direction and final sign-off for RF hardware implementation across all Neros products involving wireless links. You will ensure link budgets, cascade analysis, spectral performance, subsystem-level requirements, and validation strategies are technically sound before programs move forward. You will serve as the company's deepest RF hardware technical resource for complex connectivity performance issues and guide responsible engineers across platforms as they implement and validate wireless systems.
Responsibilities
Own final technical sign-off for RF hardware implementations across Neros products involving wireless links
Review and approve link budgets, cascade analysis, spectral performance, and RF subsystem-level requirements
Set the technical direction for how responsible engineers implement, verify, validate, and production-test RF hardware systems
Use SystemVue, HFSS, ADS, MATLAB, Simulink, and related tools to model, simulate, and validate RF architectures
Drive root cause analysis for complex RF/connectivity performance issues including interference, desense, link margin, spectral compliance, and system-level coexistence
Propose, model, and validate RF architectural decisions, component selections, and implementation trade-offs across platforms
Provide deep technical guidance to responsible engineers and cross-functional teams so design proposals are technically sound before execution
You should have the following
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) required; Master of Science (MSEE) or PhD highly preferred
8+ years of professional experience in RF hardware design, RF systems engineering, or wireless product development
Expert-level ability to build, review, and defend link budgets, cascade analysis, receiver sensitivity analysis, spectral performance analysis, and RF subsystem requirements
Proven expertise using RF/system simulation tools such as SystemVue, HFSS, ADS, MATLAB, Simulink, or similar for architecture, PCB, antenna, fixture, and system-level analysis
Deep knowledge of RF hardware architecture, radio standards, antennas, component selection, filtering, gain planning, noise, linearity, and system-level trade-offs
Demonstrated experience serving as a technical authority or final design reviewer for complex RF hardware implementations
Strong understanding of verification, validation, production acceptance testing, DFM, and DFT
Nice to have
Advanced Degree: MS or PhD in EE with a focus on RF/microwaves, electromagnetics, communications, or a related field
SystemVue / ADS / HFSS Depth: extensive experience using these tools to make product architecture decisions, not just run isolated simulations
Antenna and Platform Integration: antenna integration, embedded wireless products, desense, coexistence, EMI/EMC, and mechanical/RF coupling
Production RF Experience: defining production RF acceptance tests, tuning strategy, yield monitoring, and manufacturing feedback loops
Technical Leadership: acting as final technical reviewer or principal engineer across multiple products, platforms, or programs
US Salary Range225,000 - 315,000 USD
The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations. Highly competitive equity grants are considered part of Neros' total compensation package.
