AI generated summary

  • You need a STEM degree, experience in electromagnetics or antenna design, strong problem-solving and communication skills, knowledge of EM modeling tools, programming (preferably MATLAB), and measurement experience.
  • You will design and optimize antennas using EM simulation tools, conduct assessments for compatibility, and present findings while mentoring others and promoting best practices.

Requirements

  • Degree in a STEM subject (Physics, Mathematics, Electronic/Electrical Engineering, System Engineering, or other science-based subject).
  • Experience / Education in at least one of the following areas of Electromagnetics Low Observables (LO), Stealth Technology, Radio frequency (RF) design, Antenna design/modelling/measurement or Computational Electromagnetic Modelling (CEM).
  • Excellent numerical problem solving skills and an aptitude for lateral thinking.
  • The ability to assimilate complicated topics quickly and possess strong communication skills to convey complex subjects to our teams.
  • A Master’s Degree or PhD in a subject such as Physics, Antenna Design, Propagation, Electromagnetics, Microwave engineering, Data Analysis of measured data, etc.
  • Working knowledge of CST Microwave Studio or similar EM modelling tools.
  • Scientific programming experience. MATLAB is a preferred tool but knowledge of other languages is acceptable if it suggests an easy adaptation to MATLAB.
  • A theoretical or practical knowledge of antenna measurements.
  • Measurement experience using standard equipment (VNA, Spectrum Analyser, etc.).

Responsibilities

  • As part of a growing UK wide team, and depending on your skills and expertise, work may include
  • The development of existing product and advanced research into cutting-edge solutions for both new and existing platforms.
  • Using various EM simulation codes (e.g. CST Microwave Studio and FEKO) to analyse and optimise the design and installation impacts of sensors on a ‘stealthy’ vehicle.
  • Undertake the detailed design and development of antenna/radome (sensor/window) and any frequency selective component, together with their associated electrical, mechanical and functional interfaces.
  • Technical assessment and modelling of system or subsystem design to ensure compatibility with overall system performance.
  • Present results and designs through both written reports and oral presentations.
  • You will provide technical assistance and guidance to others, whilst promoting a culture of sharing best practice and process improvement.
