Senior RF Engineer
Job Description
We are partnering with Singapore-based company that makes communication radios — not drones. looking for candidates with RF module/system-level design experience (not component-level, telecom, IoT, or semiconductor backgrounds), ideally with R&D and design-to-production experience within the last 5 years. They're open on seniority — individual contributors only.
About the Role The Senior RF Engineer will play a critical hands-on role in designing, validating, and transferring high-performance radio modules from concept through production. In this role, you will work closely with PCB, mechanical, and product engineering teams to develop advanced wireless systems used in demanding real-world environments. You will lead RF design execution from initial architecture through prototype validation and manufacturing transfer, ensuring designs meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements. This is a deeply technical role offering end-to-end ownership and direct impact on the performance and capabilities of client's wireless products. What You’ll Do
- Design and develop production-ready RF radio modules from concept through validation and manufacturing transfer
- Translate product requirements into RF architectures including schematic design, RF front-end development, and PCB implementation
- Lead end-to-end RF design execution including RF circuitry, analog components, power supplies, and system interfaces
- Develop compact and scalable radio module designs that support multiple frequency bands and product configurations
- Perform RF simulations and front-end analysis to validate design decisions prior to hardware fabrication
- Plan and execute RF and system-level validation testing to ensure performance meets product specifications
- Prepare technical documentation including schematics, design rationale, and test results to support product lifecycle management
- Coordinate design reviews with RF, PCB, mechanical, and product engineering teams
- Identify technical risks and develop solutions balancing performance, cost, manufacturability, and schedule
- Support development of next-generation wireless technologies including advanced Wi-Fi, BLE, GPS, and high-power RF amplification systems
What Success Looks Like
- Delivery of validated RF radio modules that meet performance specifications and are ready for manufacturing
- Compact, flexible designs that support multiple SKUs and frequency configurations
- Efficient cross-functional collaboration with hardware, product engineering, and manufacturing teams
- Successful transfer of RF designs into production with minimal redesign requirements
- High technical rigor in RF design, testing, and documentation processes
- Strong contributions to next-generation wireless product development initiatives
Who You Are
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, RF Engineering, or a related field
- Significant experience designing RF hardware for wireless communication systems
- Strong expertise in RF circuit design, front-end architectures, and radio system integration
- Experience with RF simulation, testing, and performance validation methodologies
- Familiarity with high-frequency PCB design and RF layout considerations
- Experience supporting product development from prototype through production
- Ability to collaborate effectively with PCB designers, mechanical engineers, and product teams
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to manage complex technical challenges
- Comfortable working in fast-paced engineering environments with evolving product requirements
They're open to Malaysian candidates with work pass sponsorship.
