Namaskaram!

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced RF Hardware Engineer to join our innovative hardware team. As an RF expert, you will be responsible for the end-to-end design, development, testing, and validation of RF systems and components for our next-generation products. You will work closely with cross-functional teams including antenna, digital, and mechanical engineers to ensure high-performance, robust RF solutions.

We’re also proud to share that Lenskart is now our strategic investor, a milestone that reflects the impact, potential, and purpose of the path we’re walking. Join us as we co-create the future of conscious technology.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop RF circuits including LNA, PA, mixers, filters, baluns, and matching networks.
  • Perform RF simulations using tools like ADS, HFSS, CST, and EMPro.
  • Schematic capture and review PCB layout for RF modules with attention to high-frequency signal integrity and EMC.
  • Conduct RF performance tuning, calibration, and optimization for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LTE/5G, GNSS, and custom wireless systems.
  • Execute lab testing, characterization, and validation using VNA, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and network analyzers.
  • Collaborate with antenna and mechanical teams for RF integration, co-design, and mitigation of interference and defence issues.
  • Ensure compliance with regulatory standards (FCC, CE, ETSI, etc.) and support certification testing.
  • Drive root-cause analysis and resolution of RF-related issues during design, NPI, and field deployment stages.
  • Document design specifications, test plans, reports, and design reviews.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in RF hardware design and development.
  • Strong knowledge of RF fundamentals, transmission line theory, impedance matching, and wireless communication systems.
  • Proficient in simulation tools (e.g., Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS/CST) and PCB design tools (e.g., Altium, Cadence Allegro).
  • Experienced in lab instrumentation and RF measurements.
  • Solid understanding of wireless protocols: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, LTE, 5G, GNSS, etc.
  • Strong debugging skills and experience with EMC/EMI mitigation.
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills.
  • Experience with high-volume consumer electronics is a plus.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with WiFi, BLE, mmWave and phased array systems.
  • Familiarity with MIMO, beamforming, and RF front-end module integration.
  • Prior work in wearable, IoT, or AR/VR products.
