About the role

Hands-on Antenna Integration Engineer to ensure UAV antennas perform reliably in real products. Works across RF, electronics, mechanical, systems, and flight test to optimize antenna placement, layout, materials, shielding, and validation to keep GNSS, C2, and telemetry links robust in flight.

Responsibilities

  • Antenna integration: own antenna integration topics across UAV platforms, payloads, and ground-facing hardware
  • Placement decisions: support antenna selection, placement, and layout for GNSS, C2, telemetry, and video/data links
  • Cross-functional translation: work with RF engineers to translate link-budget requirements into practical integration constraints
  • Prototyping: build and iterate antenna and mechanical prototypes, including mounting mechanisms and RF test fixtures
  • Risk identification: identify antenna-related integration risks early, including detuning, shadowing, and EMI/EMC issues
  • Validation and measurement: plan and run antenna measurement campaigns for radiation-pattern and efficiency characterization using anechoic-chamber or OATS facilities

Qualifications

  • Technical experience: you have strong hands-on experience with antenna integration, RF hardware, or embedded RF products
  • Practical judgment: you understand antenna performance in real products, including placement, ground planes, and environmental effects
  • Measurement skills: you're experienced measuring or debugging RF performance using VNAs, spectrum analyzers, or SDRs
  • Hardware comfort: you're able to work close to hardware, prototypes, workshops, and imperfect early builds
  • Communication: you can make integration trade-offs explicit and explain RF constraints to non-RF engineers
  • Education: you hold a degree in electrical engineering, RF engineering, electronics, or a related field – or equivalent hands-on experience that speaks louder than the diploma

Benefits

  • Real impact & ownership: Shape high-tech defense systems and take responsibility from day one.
  • Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty.
  • Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level.
  • Deep tech environment: Get hands-on experience with cutting-edge drone technology and real operational use cases.
  • Grow fast: Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors.
  • Startup mindset meets defence innovation: flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
  • Flexibility: Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support.
  • Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success.
