Solidus is searching for a RF/Microwave Engineer.
Successful candidate will have experience in the design, fabrication, and integration of advanced RF systems. This role will develop system level RF models and then design, build, and test novel engineering prototypes of RF systems. Individual must be familiar with a variety of RF components, how they affect the design, and how to optimize the design to facilitate ease of fabrication, assembly, and testing. The Engineer must have a blend of design and hands on build and test skills. A primary emphasis remains on practical hands-on skills rather than theoretical.Requirements - U.S. Citizenship and able to obtain DoD Security Clearance - BS degree plus 5 years' minimum experienceRequired Experience - Hands-on systems design, integration, and test and strong desire to build things - Design of sensor systems for defense applications (radars, communications systems, signal synthesis, other RF systems) - RF modeling tools for active and passive RF circuit design (i.e. ADS or Microwave Office, and HFSS, CST, or Feko,). - Spice tools for circuit design (such as LT spice or other tool) - MATLAB for basic signal processing applications and data analysis - PCB design tools (i.e.- Mentor Graphics, Altium) and multilayer RF circuit board design - Antenna Systems - Active Microwave Circuits - Test Equipment, RF design, Layout, Fabrication, High-Power Amplifiers, Prototyping - Communication Systems - Works well independently and in highly motivated multidisciplinary small teamsAdditionally Desired Starting with the highest importance and ending with the least important: - Prototype demonstrating full design cycle from initial concept through final tested and validated microwave or millimeter wave RF product - HFSS for microwave or millimeter wave design and analysis including filters. - Multi-layer RF printed circuit board design using 3D RF modeling tools (HFSS etc.) for implementing microwave passives and interconnects. This would include TEM, quasi TEM, and non TEM transmission line structures, couplers, filters, power dividers, layer transitions, connector launches etc. - Frequency planning and RF cascade design and analysis. - Design and or analysis of digital signal processing, communications systems, and or control system applications using MATLAB - Mentor Graphics printed circuit board design tools - Simple microcontroller coding - Prefer candidates with recent relevant engineering experience versus candidates who are primarily performing a managerial role in prototype development - On-chip Passive Microwave Component - RF Signals (Antennas, EM Propagation and Modeling, Down-Conversion Receivers)Req ID 4487Applicants selected must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information. U.S. Citizenship may be required. Solidus is an Equal Opportunity Employer and participates in E-Verify.
