We are seeking a highly skilled and self-motivated RF Engineer to join our team. This is a senior hands-on role for an expert in RF circuit design, particularly in mm Wave technology (10- 30GHz) to lead the architecture, design and integration of advanced RF systems.

At All.Space, you'll work with some of the brightest minds in the industry to push the boundaries of what's possible in satellite communications. We value innovation, precision, and collaboration. If you're ready to lead at the cutting edge of RF engineering and contribute to projects that have global impact, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities:

• RF Subsystem Design: Design RF front-end modules (LNAs, PAs, filters, mixers, frequency converters) across Ku and Ka for ground terminal applications.

• System Analysis: Perform System analysis, propagation modelling, Embedded RF component designs and RF performance simulations using System Vue, ADS, and MATLAB.

• Prototyping & Testing: Develop RF circuit designs including schematic designs and conduct RF performance validation using VNAs, spectrum analysers, signal generators, and satellite modems.

• EM Simulation: Perform RF System simulations using tools like System Vue, Keysight ADS and HFSS

• Simulation & Measurement Analysis: Analyse simulation results and experimental data using MATLAB, Python, or other similar tools.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Support integration with digital modems, Antenna systems, and mechanical enclosures for terminal-level performance optimisation.

• Documentation & Reporting: Prepare reports and presentations on designs, simulations, measurements, and performance.

• Productisation: Work closely with hardware, mechanical and manufacturing teams to ensure designs are optimised for manufacturability, cost, and reliability.

• Compliance & Certification: Ensure designs meet international SATCOM regulatory standards (FCC, ITU, ETSI), EMC and environmental qualifications for rugged platforms
