Radio Frequency Engineer

Insight Global’s client is seeking an experienced RF Design Engineer to design, debug, and integrate RF systems for highly autonomous consumer products. This role is heavily hands-on, with a strong emphasis on RF PCB design, hardware system integration, and lab-based debugging, ideally within the cell phone or comparable high-volume consumer electronics industry.

• Design and develop RF PCBs and hardware systems across multiple wireless technologies and frequency bands
• Perform RF circuit design (not layout-only) including analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits
• Conduct lab bench work including debugging, desense analysis, and system characterization
• Own RF design through the full product lifecycle: concept, validation, certification, and manufacturing
• Identify and mitigate noise, EMI/EMC, and coupling issues at both PCB and system levels
• Collaborate closely with EE, RF, antenna, and product development teams
• Support manufacturing processes, bring-up, and production testing

• 5–8 years of relevant RF engineering experience (strong preference for mobile phone or similar consumer electronics)
• Deep understanding of RF fundamentals, including:
  • Impedance matching
  • RF PCB design and routing
  • Radiated noise coupling mechanisms
• Hands-on experience with wireless technologies such as WiFi, LTE, Bluetooth, and GPS
• Proficiency with RF simulation tools (Keysight ADS, Momentum, HFSS/Ansys)
• Experience using RF lab equipment (network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, CMW
  500, near-field probes, etc.)
• Strong debugging skills for RF performance, desense, and system integration issues

MS in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent practical experience)
