Radar Hardware Engineer

About the role

The joint venture PULSE NOVA, formed by EDGE and INDRA, is looking for a skilled Radar Hardware Engineer to develop advanced radar subsystems and mission‑critical electronic solutions.

Key responsibilities

• Design and develop analog, digital and mixed‑signal hardware assemblies for radar subsystems, including power conditioning, control, synchronization and high‑speed interfaces.
• Translate system requirements into hardware architectures, schematics, component selections, interface definitions and detailed documentation.
• Support PCB layout, ensuring signal integrity, power integrity, thermal performance, EMC/EMI compliance, manufacturability and testability.
• Perform hardware bring‑up, functional verification, debugging and root‑cause analysis using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers and logic analyzers.
• Collaborate with RF, antenna, FPGA, embedded software, mechanical and systems teams to guarantee proper electrical, thermal and mechanical integration.
• Define and execute verification, validation, qualification and environmental test activities in line with program and regulatory requirements.
• Participate in design reviews, configuration control, non‑conformance investigations and corrective actions throughout the product lifecycle.
• Support industrialisation, component obsolescence management, failure analysis and continuous reliability improvement.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in hardware design for industrial, aerospace, defence or other high‑reliability environments.
• Strong background in analog and digital electronics, schematic capture, component selection, board‑level design and hardware debugging.
• Hands‑on experience with laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators, logic analyzers and programmable power supplies.
• Familiarity with PCB development processes, high‑speed design constraints, EMC/EMI considerations and DFM/DFA principles.
• Proven ability to produce structured technical documentation, verification procedures, test reports and engineering change records.
