Job Title: RF Test Engineer

Position Overview We are seeking a smart, hungry, and humble RF Test Engineer to support advanced RF and microwave device characterization.

We're looking for someone who combines strong technical aptitude with a driven, self-motivated attitude and a genuine willingness to learn and collaborate. In this role, you will build, adapt, and operate specialized test equipment, perform complex measurements, and help develop innovative custom test setups. The ideal candidate brings sharp problem-solving skills, takes ownership of their work, and approaches every challenge with curiosity and humility.

Key Responsibilities

  • Set up and operate specialized RF and microwave test equipment with precision and care.
  • Perform complex electrical and RF measurements using a variety of laboratory instruments.
  • Apply strong working knowledge of test requirements, procedures, and safety practices.
  • Maintain test equipment and keep the work area organized and efficient.
  • Use computers for data entry, analysis, and operation of laboratory software tools.
  • Review test data, examine samples, and collaborate closely with supervisors and team members.
  • Interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, and operational instructions.
  • Operate advanced test instruments, including:
    • Network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, noise analyzers
    • Impedance analyzers and microwave probes
    • Oscilloscopes, multimeters, and temperature measurement devices
  • Support advanced RF measurement activities such as power/load-pull testing, noise parameter measurements, and pulsed RF testing.

What We're Looking For (Desired Qualifications)

  • BS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • Training or hands-on experience with RF and microwave measurements.
  • Practical experience in a corporate or laboratory environment is highly valued, particularly with:
    • Power and load-pull measurements
    • Noise parameter characterization
    • Pulsed RF testing

Our Culture We value team members who are smart (technically excellent and quick learners), hungry (proactive, driven, and eager to take on new challenges), and humble (team-oriented, open to feedback, and always willing to help others). If you're the type of person who brings high energy, intellectual curiosity, and a collaborative spirit to everything you do, you'll thrive here.

Location & Benefits This position is located in beautiful Tampa Bay, Florida. We offer a competitive salary (negotiable based on experience and degree level) along with a comprehensive benefits package including vacation, health, life, disability, and retirement plans.

Note: U.S. Citizenship or permanent residency is required for this position.
