Radio Frequency (RF) / Communications Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design, configure, and optimize the logical network architecture, IP routing, and data flow for the AMMO prototypes.
• Provision, tune, and manage the wireless transport layers, focusing on the signal and network configuration of 5G/LTE modules, military tactical radios, and SATCOM terminals.
• Implement software/configuration solutions for signal tuning and interference mitigation.
• Ensure seamless logical interoperability and secure data transit between the AMMO edge node and existing USMC tactical networks.
• Execute field testing to validate network survivability, signal range, bandwidth availability, and overall communication performance in simulated tactical environments.
• Define precise antenna specifications, signal isolation needs, and optimal placement requirements, handing these specifications off to the Hardware Engineer for physical construction.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Telecommunications, Network Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering (with RF focus), or a related technical discipline.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in RF network architecture, logical systems configuration, and wireless signal optimization.
• Demonstrated expertise in configuring and tuning 5G/LTE cellular networks, tactical radio networks, and IP routing protocols.
• Familiarity with USMC or broader DoD tactical communication networks, data architectures, and network security protocols.
