RF System Engineer and Integrator

Company Description nexTenna is on a mission to redefine how people connect to the internet by developing a unique adaptive RF device based on its proprietary Phase Shifter Technology. The company focuses on transforming the cost, power consumption, and scalability of state-of-the-art phased array antenna technology. By making advanced RF solutions accessible and affordable for the consumer market, nexTenna aims to significantly improve wireless connectivity worldwide. The company draws inspiration from the historic shift from discrete transistors to integrated circuits, seeking to drive a similar leap forward in wireless communications. Team members have the opportunity to contribute to foundational technology that may shape the next era of connectivity.
Role Description The RF System Engineer and Integrator will be responsible for designing, implementing, and integrating RF systems based on nexTenna’s adaptive phase shifter technology. Day-to-day activities include RF system-level design, simulation, and analysis; selection and integration of RF components and modules; and hands-on lab work using test and measurement equipment to validate performance. The role involves collaborating with hardware, software, and algorithm teams to define system requirements, optimize architectures, and resolve integration issues. The engineer will also support prototyping, debugging, and performance tuning of phased array and antenna subsystems, and document designs, test plans, and results. This is a full-time, on-site role located in Haifa.
Qualifications

• Strong knowledge and practical experience in RF Design and RF Systems, including system-level architecture, link budgets, and performance trade-offs.
• Experience with Digital Signal Processing for RF and wireless systems, such as beamforming, modulation, filtering, and signal analysis.
• Hands-on experience using RF test equipment, including Spectrum Analyzer and related RF measurement tools, for characterization, troubleshooting, and validation.
• Background in Systems Design, including requirements definition, system integration, and verification of complex RF and mixed-signal systems.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Experience with simulation and design tools (e.g., MATLAB, Simulink, RF/microwave CAD tools such as ADS, HFSS, or CST) is highly beneficial.
• Familiarity with phased array antennas, beam steering, and wireless communication standards is an advantage.
• Ability to work hands-on in a lab environment, analyze measurement data, and systematically solve integration and performance issues.
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively in a multidisciplinary team.
