Job description

We are looking for a versatile RF Electronics Engineer to contribute to the development of advanced electronic products. The role involves sub-system requirements definition, designing hardware with associated analysis and ensuring rigorous validation, with a strong emphasis on metrology, PCB design, and mixed-signal electronics. The engineer will work flexibly on various product developments based on project needs, including topics related to multi-physics interactions.

In this role you will be responsuble of:

• Design and validate low-noise electronics for next-generation products, including circuits where high-frequency constraints and parasitic effects are critical.

• Perform electronic analyses, including for example Part Stress and Worst-Case, as well as RF-related evaluations (impedance, coupling, EMC/EMI considerations).

• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (mechanics, software, production) to ensure seamless integration.

• Design and implement test systems to validate electronic products, including defining test procedures and measurement methods.

• Operate and program advanced measurement tools (e.g., spectrum analyzers, FFT analyzers, frequency counters).

• Document technical processes, including specifications, test plans, and qualification reports.

• Support product industrialization and establish acceptance criteria in collaboration with production teams.

Candidate skills & requirements

• Degree in Electronics Engineering or equivalent, with experience in both product and test system development.

• Strong knowledge of metrology and precision measurement techniques.

• Proficiency in Altium Designer for PCB layout and circuit design, including good practice for high-frequency routing and EMI/EMC robustness

• Experience in mixed-signal electronics, including low noise systems, oscillators and active analog circuits

• Familiarity with circuital and electromagnetic simulation tools (e.g. ADS, CST)

• Autonomous, methodical, and capable of managing priorities across multiple projects.

• Team-oriented with excellent problem-solving and analytical abilities.

• Strong communication skills (both written and verbal) in English; knowledge of French is an asset
