Radio Frequency Engineer
Genuine Search Group, West Chester, OH, United States
The Radio Frequency (RF) Engineer is responsible for the design, development, testing, and optimization of RF circuits and subsystems, with a strong emphasis on RF filter design and RF PCB layout. This role will support the development of high-performance RF systems used in wireless communications, radar, sensing, or related applications. The engineer will collaborate with cross-functional hardware, systems, and manufacturing teams to ensure RF designs meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.
Key Responsibilities
Design and develop RF circuits including
RF filters, matching networks, amplifiers, and signal chains
for wireless and high-frequency applications. Perform
RF filter design
including lumped-element, distributed, microstrip, and cavity filters depending on system requirements. Develop and optimize
RF PCB layouts
ensuring controlled impedance, signal integrity, grounding, and EMI/EMC compliance. Conduct
RF simulations
using industry tools (e.g., ADS, Microwave Office, HFSS, CST, or similar). Perform
RF measurements and validation
using lab equipment such as vector network analyzers (VNA), spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and oscilloscopes. Analyze RF performance including
S-parameters, insertion loss, return loss, isolation, and bandwidth . Work closely with PCB layout engineers and mechanical engineers to ensure manufacturable and high-performance RF designs. Support
prototype bring-up, debugging, and troubleshooting
of RF circuits and subsystems. Document designs, simulation results, test procedures, and performance data. Participate in
design reviews and cross-functional engineering collaboration . Support transition of designs from prototype to
production manufacturing . Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in
Electrical Engineering , RF Engineering, or related field. 3–7+ years of experience
in RF circuit design. Strong hands-on experience with
RF filter design . Experience designing
RF PCBs for high-frequency applications . Familiarity with
RF simulation tools
such as: Keysight ADS AWR Microwave Office HFSS or CST Experience with
