Hardware Design Engineer – Wireless Communications

Location: Cambridge region | Hybrid working available

Type: Permanent | Competitive salary + annual bonus

Overview

We’re working with an established technology company developing advanced wireless communication systems and high-performance radio hardware. The team designs products used across multiple sectors — from cellular infrastructure to specialist communication and test systems — and covers the full lifecycle from concept through to manufacture.

As an RF Hardware Design Engineer, you’ll work alongside experienced electronics and RF specialists on technically challenging, multi-disciplinary projects that integrate analogue, digital, and RF design.

Key Responsibilities

- Capture and interpret hardware requirements, contributing to RF design at both circuit and system level.

- Design complex mixed-signal PCBs, including schematic capture and component selection.

- Characterise and validate new designs using standard lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, signal and spectrum analysers, VNAs, etc.).

- Evaluate new ICs and technologies for inclusion in next-generation products.

- Collaborate closely with software, FPGA, and RF teams to deliver integrated hardware platforms.

About You

You’re an engineer who enjoys hands-on design, debugging, and developing reliable, high-performance RF focused hardware. You’ll be joining a team that values curiosity, problem-solving and collaboration, with opportunities to broaden your skills across multiple technology domains.

Essential Skills & Experience

- Degree or equivalent qualification in Electronic Engineering or related discipline.

- 4+ years’ experience in RF/electronic hardware design within wireless or embedded systems.

- Strong circuit design knowledge (analogue and mixed-signal).

- Experience designing PCBs with high-frequency and precision components (e.g. RF front ends, oscillators, ADCs/DACs, LNAs, filters).

- Skilled in debug, validation and fault-finding using lab tools.

- Self-motivated, structured, and able to deliver under minimal supervision.

Desirable Skills

- Understanding of mobile or wireless communication systems (e.g. 5G, LTE, or similar).

- Familiarity with RF/microwave design principles and transmission line theory.

- Experience with scripting or programming for test automation or data analysis (e.g. Python, MATLAB).

- Awareness of regulatory compliance and product lifecycle management systems.

What You’ll Get

- Competitive salary and performance bonus.

- Variety of technically engaging projects across multiple wireless domains.

- Supportive, flexible culture with opportunities for learning and professional growth.
