RF and Antenna Integration Engineer

About the role

Pulse Nova is seeking an RF Integration Engineer to support the integration of the NEMUS radar and electronic warfare (EW) subsystems across various platforms. The role focuses on RF budget and coexistence analysis, antenna placement, system alignment, RF testing and troubleshooting interference and EMI/EMC issues.

Key responsibilities

• Support the Systems Integration Engineer in the RF-level integration of the NEMUS radar and EW subsystems on each platform.
• Perform RF budget and coexistence analysis (isolation, filtering, frequency deconfliction) between radar, EW and other RF emitters on the same platform.
• Define and execute antenna siting, cable routing and mounting to minimise blockage, mutual coupling and EMI/EMC.
• Support integration and alignment of the radar's AESA antenna panels, EW antennas, EO/IR camera and direction-finding antennas.
• Perform RF chain measurements and testing (VSWR, insertion loss, isolation, spectrum occupancy) using spectrum analyzers, network analyzers and power meters.
• Support troubleshooting of RF issues during integration, FAT/SAT and field trials.
• Prepare RF interface specifications, antenna layout drawings and RF test reports.
• Support environmental and EMC qualification testing of RF subsystems.

Required profile

• Degree in Telecommunications or Electronics Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Minimum 5+ years of experience in RF integration of radar, EW or communications systems.
• Experience mitigating co-site interference between multiple RF systems is a strong plus.
• Experience with RF installations on naval, ground-vehicle or airborne platforms is a plus.
• Willingness to travel to integration and test sites, including desert/field campaigns.

Required skills

• Solid knowledge of antenna theory, RF propagation and EMI/EMC principles.
• Hands-on experience with RF and electronic test equipment.
• English proficiency is required for all roles.

What we offer

• Competitive, tax-free salaries.
• Benefits that may include family visas, annual flight tickets, medical insurance for you and your dependents and education allowances for your children.
• A learning academy and digital learning platforms, career support and collaboration with global talent.
