Antenna/RF Engineer

at  Numerica Corporation

Numerica is seeking Antenna/RF Engineers who excel at developing state-of-the art integrated RF systems to deliver powerful new sensing and communication capabilities. Working in small innovative teams, our engineers build solutions that make a difference. Our research endeavors don’t end once we’ve written a journal or conference paper describing our technology; rather, our work is complete when our technology has been deployed in mission-critical systems and our customers within government and industry are successful. As science fiction writer Arthur Clarke wrote, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Numerica is seeking talented “magicians” to join in our common struggle and expand the boundaries of what’s possible.

RECOMMENDED BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE:

• An Antenna/RF Engineer at Numerica should possess an advanced degree (M.S. or higher, ideally) in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• An Antenna/RF Engineer should have a record of academic excellence and demonstrated experience in most of the following areas:
• Antenna design and analysis: Antenna layout and tuning; feed design; impedance matching; computational analysis in HFSS, COMSOL, CST Momentum, or similar CEM package;
• RF design and analysis: Microstrip circuit design; RF layout and simulation via ADS, Microwave Office, or similar RF layout and analysis tool; phased array design experience is a major plus;
• Antenna and RF testing: Network analyzer S-parameter characterization; antenna pattern measurement.
• An Antenna/RF Engineer at Numerica ideally will have conducted radar/RF system research and development, either in graduate school or industry.
• An Antenna/RF Engineer should have effective written and verbal communication skills, with the demonstrated ability to convey salient details about advanced technology in a compelling manner to both experts and non-experts alike.
  Salary range: $80,900-$164,300 estimated annual base salary plus incentives
  Due to the security requirements of this position, a candidate must be a U.S. Citizen and successfully pass a criminal background check.
  Numerica is an equal opportunity employer.
