NewSpace Technical is partnered with a cutting-edge European aerospace company that is redefining what's possible in small satellite technology.
This innovative organisation develops advanced satellite platforms alongside next-generation technologies supporting the future of space exploration.
Operating with a fully integrated, "end-to-end" model -from concept and design through to qualification and in-orbit operations - they are known for delivering high-performance, agile space solutions.
As part of their continued expansion, they are looking for a talented
RF Engineer
to join their Telecommunications team, contributing to the design and development of advanced RF systems for space applications.
You'll be joining a collaborative, forward-thinking engineering environment where innovation, ownership, and continuous learning are actively encouraged.
The Role
As an
RF Engineer
, you will be involved in the design, development, and validation of RF subsystems, working closely with multidisciplinary teams to deliver robust and high-performance space-grade communication solutions.
Key responsibilities include:
Analysing system-level requirements and defining technical specifications
Translating requirements into board-level architecture and hardware design
Producing and managing technical documentation (design descriptions, ICDs, verification plans, test procedures, etc.)
Designing RF front-end architectures (MMIC/HMIC-based: HPA, LNA, mixers, oscillators, PLLs, etc.)
Supporting schematic capture and PCB layout activities
Performing simulations and preliminary validation (EMC, thermal, power derating, etc.)
Defining and executing RF test campaigns, including setup and procedure development
Characterising high-frequency components and systems (up to 40 GHz), including S-parameters, noise figure, and phase noise
Your Background
Degree in Electronics Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related STEM discipline

Hands-on experience with RF lab instrumentation (VNA, spectrum analysers, etc.)
Solid understanding of antenna theory and technologies (gain, polarisation, patch antennas, arrays, etc.)
Strong analytical mindset with excellent problem-solving capabilities
Ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, and collaborative environment
Background in space or aerospace projects
Experience with EMC qualification processes
Familiarity with ECSS or MIL standards
Experience with Agile methodologies and cross-functional teams
Knowledge of FMEA and FTA analysis
Detail-oriented approach with a strong drive for continuous improvement
Why Apply?
Work on innovative, real-world space missions at the forefront of RF and satellite communications
Be part of a highly skilled, collaborative engineering team
Clear opportunities for professional development and career progression
Flexible and hybrid working model
Strong emphasis on work-life balance, including regular additional time off
Competitive salary and benefits package
This is an exciting opportunity for an RF Engineer looking to make a meaningful impact in the rapidly evolving space sector while working on advanced communication technologies that power the next generation of satellite missions.
