Remote Government / public administration Evaluator - AI Trainer ($80-$120 per hour)

Overview As an RF Engineer, you will help architect, design, and validate advanced RF and microwave subsystems that enable mission‑critical communications across aerospace, defense, and satellite markets. You’ll own the entire development lifecycle—from concept, simulation, and circuit design to integration, verification, and production support—ensuring that every subsystem meets rigorous performance, reliability, and environmental standards demanded by our customers. Working closely with cross‑functional engineering, manufacturing, test, and quality teams, you’ll turn innovative concepts into robust, scalable, production‑ready hardware that directly influences the performance, manufacturability, and long‑term reliability of high‑power, high‑frequency systems deployed in some of the world’s most challenging environments. This is a full‑time on‑site position in Cypress, CA. The pay range is $159,000 – $168,000. What You'll Do Design innovative quasi‑optical and spatial power‑combining architectures. Perform electromagnetic, RF, and microwave simulations using industry tools (ADS, AWR, HFSS, CST) and translate results into optimized hardware designs. Architect and simulate RF/microwave circuits and subsystems—including power amplifiers, converters, synthesizers, filters, mixers, and T/R modules—to meet system‑level requirements. Specify, source, and evaluate RF components (transistors, mixers, switches, passives) for use in high‑power, high‑reliability applications. Develop detailed test plans, configure measurement systems (VNAs, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power meters), and characterize prototype hardware for gain, efficiency, power, noise figure, linearity, stability, and thermal behavior. Prepare documentation including design reports, test results, root‑cause analyses, failure reports, and manufacturing support materials. Collaborate cross‑functionally with mechanical, thermal, manufacturing, and quality engineering teams to ensure designs are robust, manufacturable, and aligned with reliability and production standards. Support new product introduction (NPI) efforts—design reviews, manufacturability assessments, prototype builds, and issue resolution during production ramp‑up. Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to design, testing, reliability, and manufacturing, providing corrective actions and continuous improvement recommendations. Stay informed on emerging RF and microwave technologies and contribute to technology roadmaps and process improvement initiatives. Qualifications Hands‑on experience designing, simulating, producing, and validating RF/microwave circuits and subsystems. Proficiency using RF test equipment including network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal generators, and power meters. Strong math abilities, including calculus and spatial reasoning. Self‑motivated, detail‑oriented, and comfortable working in a fast‑paced environment. Strong sense of ownership, responsibility, and professional discretion. Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, with the ability to collaborate across all organizational levels. Bachelor’s degree in a relevant engineering field. Minimum of 3 years of direct experience in RF hardware design and measurement. Electronic Warfare (EW) or radar experience is a plus.
