We will encourage you to keep up with advances in technology and changes in the market, and to propose and investigate novel technologies that could enable new products for our current and future clients.

The world’s largest airborne phased-array antenna system

Transparent antennas for 5G radio systems

The world’s highest-density 4G radio system for a fleet of warehouse robots


What you can bring


As a Technology Leader, you will have a proven track record of leadership and innovation in the field of RF systems and wireless communication. You will be enthusiastic about exploring new technologies and their potential benefits to our clients. You will be a confident communicator, able to articulate your ideas and inspire others to develop theirs.


You will work closely with business developers to understand market trends and clients’ needs. You will also take a lead role in the creation and development of new ground-breaking wireless products, from initial client discussion and problem definition through to product specification and successful delivery.


Aspiring candidates will have some of the following:


  • Extensive experience of specifying and designing RF systems and products
  • Knowledge of 3GPP communications standards
  • Antenna specification and design
  • Understanding of Digital Signal Processing and its applications in RF
  • A passion for understanding and developing new technologies
  • Enthusiasm for mentoring more junior engineers
