Senior RF Hardware Engineer

$170k - $220k

AnySignal

Job Description

Job Description

The Company
AnySignal is developing the next generation of RF products and services for some of the most demanding space and defense missions. We’re building a flexible, high-performance platform that’s easy to deploy, monitor, and scale — enabling customers to bring advanced radio technologies to life faster than ever before.

The Role

As a Senior RF Hardware Engineer on the hardware team, you will be responsible for owning the design, manufacture, test, and deployment of highly integrated RF devices used by a surging wave of space customers. You will work with a small team of software, hardware, and FPGA engineers to shepherd the product from initial design to vehicle integration, taking a full-stack approach to building robust space communications systems.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and own RF products across PCB, box, and integration levels

  • Own trades and analyses on new designs and question requirements

  • Bring up, troubleshoot, and qualify new designs

  • Collaborate with Supply Chain and Manufacturing teams to enable large-scale manufacture of products

Required Skills

  • 5+ years of robust experience designing circuitry in RF bands across frontend and conversion chains

  • End-to-end PCB design experience, including schematic capture, layout, fabrication and assembly

  • Experience with electronic design and analysis tools such as Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS, and Altium Designer

  • Excellent understanding of RF metrics such as S-parameters, P1dB, noise figure, channel power, and EVM

  • Excellent understanding of RF cascades, link budgets, and noise analysis

  • Experience with test instruments (oscilloscopes, power supplies, VNAs, spectrum analyzers)

  • Experience with low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, mixers, ADCs/DACs, phased locked loops, oscillators, and filters

Desired Skills

  • Experience building complex PCBs in Altium Designer

  • Experience selecting components for radiation-susceptible environments

  • Experience working with AD9361, Xilinx RFSoC, and similar digital-analog conversion interfaces

  • Solid experience soldering and reworking boards (0402 SMP components, QFN packages)

  • Experience performing communications link modeling and solid understanding of DSP fundamentals

  • Knowledge of antenna design, simulation, and measurement in near-field/far-field regimes

  • Experience working with high-PAPR signals and knowledge of DPD concepts

Compensation

The estimated base salary range for this role is $170,000-$220,000 per year, plus equity. This range reflects our good-faith estimate for this position at the time of posting. The final base salary offered will depend on a variety of factors, including the candidate's qualifications, relevant experience, skills, and market considerations. In addition to base salary, total compensation includes an equity grant and our full benefits package (Medical, Dental, Vision), HSA's and 401K program.

Export Control Requirements

To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including ITAR, applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual under 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the necessary authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

Equal Opportunity & Accommodations

AnySignal is committed to building an inclusive and accessible workplace where all employees feel respected, supported, and able to contribute fully. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds, including women, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and members of underrepresented communities.

If you require accommodation at any stage of the hiring process, please contact us in confidence at View email address on us.fitly.work. We are committed to ensuring equal access for all applicants.
