Job Description

ROLES and RESPONSIBILITIES: 

The successful candidate will be working with state-of-the-art over-the-air antenna testing facility for our novel Ku- and Ka-band satcom terminal. This will include leading the set-up and operation of brand-new Compact Antenna Test Ranges (CATR) both in the UK and US. You will be responsible for highly technical calibration and qualifications of the terminals. Using your RF/antenna background, you will integrate MATLAB and Python-based control software to control and synchronise the CATR measurement system with a variety of RF infrastructure, including active RF networks, the satcom terminal (API controlled) and RF test equipment including a Keysight PNA-X, PNA, spectrum analysers, signal generators, power sensors, calibration kits and more. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for an engineer that wants to drive a highly technical, novel calibration and measurement system to a production-standard. The successful candidate will own multiple technical development workstreams to use statistical analysis of large RF measurement data-sets to develop our calibration and qualification routines to new heights in order to improve terminal throughput without sacrificing quality. 

CATR Commissioning and Development 

  • Commission and run state-of-the-art Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) systems 

  • Run calibration and verification measurements of terminals as part of production 

  • Run over-the-air development activity in the CATR for next-generation terminals 

  • Maintain and develop MATLAB control scripts for the CATR system 

Antenna Calibration and Verification 

  • Develop, calibrate, and verify the performance of the calibration system 

  • Integrate calibration methodologies into system frameworks 

  • Develop scripts to validate system functionality 

  • Develop statistical confidence level indications for chamber calibrations 

Documentation and Reporting 

  • Document calibration procedures, methodologies, and results for internal reference and regulatory compliance 

  • Generate reports summarizing findings, including defects and performance metrics 

  • Communicate effectively with stakeholders to convey results and recommendations. 

Requirements

QUALIFICATIONS, EXPERIENCE AND SKILLS:

  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Physics, or related field. Master’s degree preferred 

  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Matlab 

  • Experience with calibration and verification of antenna elements such as active phased arrays, low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, frequency conversion, ADC & DAC 

  • Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines 

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail 

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a cross-functional team environment. 

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE 

  • Experience with over the air RF measurements in anechoic chambers (e.g., Compact Antenna Test Ranges (CATRs), Spherical/Planer Near Field Scanners using RF test equipment equipment (e.g., spectrum analyzers, vector network analysers and signal generators) 

  • Solid understanding of antenna principles, including digital and analog circuits, signal processing, and communication protocols 

  • Prior experience in antenna engineering, calibration, or software development is highly desirable 

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and annual bonus 

  • Stock Options 

  • Contributory Pension Scheme 

  • 25 days Annual Leave + Public Holidays 

  • Cycle-to-Work Scheme
