About the role

What You'll Do

  • Own RF, EMI, and EMC considerations across avionics, communications, payloads, and power systems.
  • Diagnose and resolve EMI issues during integration, ground test, and flight test.
  • Define and implement EMI mitigation strategies including grounding, shielding, filtering, cable routing, and enclosure design.
  • Partner closely with electrical and systems engineers to influence system architecture early.
  • Define and optimize RF hardware placement within the aircraft.
  • Own RF and EMI validation end to end, from in-house development testing through pre-compliance and formal EMI/EMC certification.
  • Work directly with flight hardware in the lab and on the aircraft.

What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years of experience working on RF, EMI, or EMC for complex hardware systems.
  • Background in aviation or satellites.
  • Strong understanding of EMI/EMC fundamentals and coupling mechanisms.
  • Experience with RF systems such as radios, antennas, GPS, or data links.
  • Hands-on debugging experience using spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, and related lab equipment.
  • Experience supporting system integration and cross-disciplinary debugging.
  • Ability to translate theory into practical, flight-ready solutions.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with airborne or safety-critical systems.
  • Familiarity with standards such as MIL-STD-461 or DO-160.
  • Experience reviewing or influencing PCB layout for EMI robustness.
  • Flight test or forward-deployed testing experience.
  • Background spanning both RF design and system-level EMI troubleshooting.
