Senior RF Systems Engineer, Cyber

RF Systems Engineer

Anduril Cyber is hiring an RF Systems Engineer with broad technical range across RF architecture, systems engineering, verification, field integration, and cross-functional technical leadership. The role is aimed at a senior hands-on engineer who can connect requirements, design trades, integration realities, and productization decisions across the full system.

Responsibilities include:

• Own end-to-end RF and system architecture trade studies across hardware, software, DSP, integration, and operational constraints.
• Develop requirements, verification strategies, interface definitions, and engineering artifacts that keep complex programs technically coherent.
• Lead technical reviews, customer-facing discussions, and cross-disciplinary design decisions with clear engineering judgment.
• Drive integration problem-solving across lab, field, and production-oriented contexts while balancing performance, reliability, manufacturability, and schedule.
• Use structured systems-engineering methods to identify risks, close gaps, and improve confidence in the overall architecture.
• Serve as a player-coach technical leader who can move fluidly between deep technical details and broader program-level tradeoffs.

Required qualifications include:

• Strong experience in systems engineering for RF, digital, or mixed-signal systems with real ownership of architecture and integration outcomes.
• Demonstrated skill in requirements development, interface definition, verification planning, and technical risk management.
• Broad RF systems understanding, including receiver/transmitter chains, timing/synchronization concerns, and practical integration constraints.
• Ability to lead technical trade studies across performance, cost, manufacturability, reliability, and schedule.
• Experience working directly with customers or external stakeholders in technical reviews, requirements discussions, or architecture briefings.
• Hands-on problem-solving ability across software, hardware, networking, and field integration boundaries.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to make complex systems understandable to mixed audiences.

Preferred qualifications include:

• Experience with reverse engineering legacy systems or reconstructing architecture where documentation is incomplete.
• Background with FPGA/SoC-based platforms, high-speed digital systems, or multi-disciplinary hardware development programs.
• Familiarity with qualification/compliance-oriented verification environments and structured engineering lifecycle processes.
• Experience mentoring engineers or leading small technical teams through design, integration, and field support phases.
• Track record of productization-oriented decision making in addition to early-phase system architecture work.
