RF Engineer

RF Engineer - Advanced RF Measurement Systems Location: Kennesaw, GA (Lab-Based + Limited Travel) Compensation: Competitive Base Salary + Benefits Employment Type: Full-Time About the Role Our client is seeking a hands-on RF Engineer to design, build, and support sophisticated RF measurement systems used for antenna characterization, radar cross-section (RCS) testing, and electromagnetic materials analysis. This is an end-to-end engineering role-ideal for someone who enjoys taking systems from concept to reality, working directly with hardware, and supporting real-world measurement environments. What You'll Be Working On Design Complete RF Measurement Systems Build VNA-centric systems for antenna testing, RCS measurement, and EM material characterization. Architect RF Signal Chains Design and integrate RF front-ends including switches, amplifiers, couplers, filters, and calibration paths. Build & Validate Systems Assemble hardware, integrate mechanical positioners and scanners, perform calibration, and verify system performance. Solve Complex Measurement Problems Debug RF, mechanical, and software issues to ensure stable, repeatable, high-quality measurements. Install & Support Systems Support on-site installations, train users, and provide post-deployment troubleshooting. Create Clear Documentation Produce wiring diagrams, test procedures, calibration workflows, and user guides to support long-term system reliability. What We're Looking For Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent hands-on experience Strong RF/microwave fundamentals (S-parameters, matching, noise, dynamic range) Proven experience working with Vector Network Analyzers Hands-on comfort with RF lab tools and precision connectors Methodical troubleshooting mindset and strong documentation habits Ability to manage multiple technical workstreams independently • Bonus Experience (Not Required) Antenna measurement systems (near-field, far-field, anechoic chambers) RCS measurement concepts and calibration techniques EM materials testing and parameter extraction RF front-end design experience Test automation or instrumentation control (Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, etc.) Familiarity with major RF instrumentation vendors • What Success Looks Like You can turn a vague measurement requirement into a robust, repeatable system You're just as comfortable tightening a precision connector as you are tuning a calibration workflow Customers trust you during installs and rely on your technical judgment Travel & Environment Primarily lab-based Occasional travel for installations and customer support (10%)
