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.

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
