# Principal RF Hardware Engineer

Company AnySignal is developing the next generation of RF products and services for some of the most demanding space and defense missions. We’re building a flexible, high-performance platform that’s easy to deploy, monitor, and scale, enabling customers to bring advanced radio technologies to life faster than ever before. The Role We're hiring a Principal RF Hardware Engineer to own the design of the RF hardware at the core of our space radios. This is the most senior individual contributor role on the RF hardware team, and it is a permanent IC role rather than a path into management. You will own designs end to end - architecture and cascade budgets, schematic, layout direction, bring-up, characterization, and support through qualification and flight. You will also set the technical standard for RF hardware here: how designs are reviewed, what verification is expected before a board is released, and what documentation has to exist after. Our radios fly, so the work is judged on what survives launch and performs on orbit. What You'll Do Own space radio RF hardware designs end to end: architecture and cascade budgets, schematic capture, layout direction, board bring-up, characteriza
