About the role
Location: Grand Blanc, Michigan. Travel: Less than 10%. As Antenna Design Engineering Manager, you will lead an accomplished automotive antenna engineering team while remaining actively involved in antenna design, simulation, testing, and technical decision‑making. You will be an entrepreneurial leader who challenges the status quo, identifies better ways to work, and turns ideas into results. You will grow your capabilities while helping team members realize their potential and create long‑term value for Molex and its customers. This newly created player‑coach role will strengthen how the team prioritizes work, documents technical knowledge, and applies proven designs across future vehicle programs. You will bring greater structure and collaboration to a team of talented engineers while delivering high‑quality products on time, solving complex antenna‑integration challenges across numerous vehicle platforms and wireless technologies. The team has access to advanced simulation tools, comprehensive antenna measurement equipment, and an indoor vehicle test chamber. As part of Molex, a Koch company, we take a long‑term approach to investing in resources, technology, and people needed to create value and advance automotive antenna innovation.
That covers About the role.
Responsibilities: "What You Will Do" bullet list.
We need to extract bullet points:
- Serve as a hands‑on player‑coach, spending approximately 60% of your time on technical leadership, antenna engineering, design reviews, simulation, testing, and problem‑solving, and approximately 40% leading and developing the engineering team.
- Lead the development, simulation, integration, and optimization of automotive antenna structures and high‑frequency systems from concept and prototyping through vehicle validation and production.
- Provide technical leadership across technologies including 5G, GNSS, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, V2X, UWB, AM/FM, digital audio broadcasting, satellite radio, and keyless‑entry systems.
- Establish clear priorities, ownership, and development plans that help the team meet technical, quality, schedule, cost, and customer commitments.
- Improve engineering efficiency by implementing repeatable processes, documentation standards, and design‑reuse practices that enable the team to apply proven technology across multiple vehicle platforms.
- Lead design reviews, evaluate simulation and measurement results, identify technical risks, and guide failure analysis, corrective actions, over‑the‑air testing, and complete‑vehicle validation.
- Lead with an entrepreneurial mindset by constructively challenging existing approaches, encouraging new ideas, removing barriers, and coaching team members to expand their capabilities, take ownership, and create greater value.
- Represent antenna engineering in customer presentations and cross‑functional technical reviews while partnering with engineering, manufacturing, supplier, and global teams.
We'll put each as - .
Requirements: "Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)" bullet list.
Extract:
- Master’s degree or higher in electrical engineering, communications engineering, high‑frequency engineering, physics, or a comparable technical field.
- 10 or more years of professional experience developing antenna structures and systems.
- Experience with electromagnetic simulation, antenna structure design, performance optimization, and antenna integration.
- Experience using electromagnetic simulation tools such as CST Studio Suite, Ansys HFSS, or FEKO.
- Experience with radio‑frequency measurement technology, network analyzers, antenna test chambers, and over‑the‑air measurements.
- Experience leading complex antenna development from concept and simulation through prototype testing, validation, and production.
- Experience providing technical or people leadership to engineers working on complex development programs.
Qualifications: "What Will Put You Ahead" bullet list.
Extract:

- Experience with automotive antenna architectures, packaging constraints, vehicle‑level electromagnetic behavior, and production requirements.
- Experience with active and passive antenna systems and radio‑frequency front‑end architectures.
- Experience across multiple wireless technologies, including 5G, GNSS, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, V2X, UWB, broadcast radio, satellite radio, or keyless‑entry systems.
- Experience using Optenni or related radio‑frequency optimization tools.
- People‑management experience leading antenna, high‑frequency, electromagnetic simulation, or related engineering teams.
- Experience presenting technical concepts, design recommendations, risks, and validation results to automotive customers.
- Experience establishing technical documentation, design libraries, engineering databases, or other methods for reusing proven designs and lessons learned.
- Experience collaborating with globally distributed engineering teams.
Skills: Could be derived from both Requirements and Qualifications but we might combine into Skills section if we want. However we already have Requirements and Qualifications sections; maybe we can omit Skills to avoid duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have About, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. That's five sections. Could we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But they are distinct: basic vs preferred. Might be okay to keep both.
Benefits: "Our Benefits" paragraph.
Extract:
Our goal is for each employee, and their families, to live fulfilling and healthy lives. We provide essential resources and support to build and maintain physical, financial, and emotional strength - focusing on overall wellbeing so you can focus on what matters most. Our benefits plan includes - medical, dental, vision, flexible spending and health savings accounts, life insurance, ADD, disability, retirement, paid vacation/time off, educational assistance, and may also include infertility assistance, paid parental leave and adoption assistance. Specific eligibility criteria is set by the applicable Summary Plan Description, policy or guideline and benefits may vary by geographic region. If you have questions on what benefits apply to you, please speak to your recruiter. Additionally, everyone has individual work and personal needs. We seek to enable the best work environment that helps you and the business work together to produce superior results.
We need to put that in
. Possibly break into multiple paragraphs? But we can keep as one
.
We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunities, Sponsorship & Relocation, Hiring Philosophy, Who We Are, etc. Remove those.
Also remove "Any compensation range provided for a role is an estimate..." etc. That's about Pay but no specific numbers, so we skip Pay section.
We also need to not include "Relocation assistance is available, and employment sponsorship may be considered..." That's boilerplate? It's somewhat specific but maybe considered minor metadata; we could fold into a short p under About? But instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Relocation assistance is maybe minor metadata; we could include in About the role paragraph. But we already have location and travel. Could add a sentence: "Relocation assistance is available, and employment sponsorship may be considered for qualified candidates within the United States." That's not boilerplate; it's specific. We'll include it in About the role paragraph.
Also "Sponsorship & Relocation" heading we should not create; just embed.
Now ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We didn't.
