Job Description

Shape the future of RF technology


At Teledyne Microwave UK, we design and manufacture advanced RF and microwave technology for some of the most demanding applications in aerospace, defence and radar.


We're looking for an experienced Senior or Principal RF Engineer to join our engineering team in Lincoln.


This is an opportunity for an accomplished RF engineer to take on a technically influential role, working on complex RF products operating from 500MHz to 40GHz, while also helping shape the technologies that form our future product roadmap.


What you'll be doing


You'll take a leading role in the design and development of sophisticated RF and microwave components, systems and multifunction assemblies, including:


  • Radar receiver protection solutions
  • RF and microwave switches
  • RF systems and subsystems
  • Frequency converters
  • Transceivers
  • Amplifiers

You'll be involved throughout the engineering lifecycle, from exploring concepts and emerging technologies through to detailed design and supporting successful delivery.


Depending on your experience, you will also have the opportunity to:


  • Influence and help shape the Teledyne Microwave UK technology roadmap
  • Research and evaluate new RF and microwave technologies
  • Provide technical leadership and expertise across multidisciplinary engineering teams
  • Solve complex RF design challenges
  • Work directly with customers alongside our Sales & Marketing teams
  • Share your expertise and support the development of other engineers

What we're looking for


We're interested in hearing from experienced RF and microwave engineers who can bring strong technical expertise to the team.


Ideally, you'll have experience in several of the following areas:


  • RF and microwave circuit or component design
  • RF front-end protection and/or waveguide limiters
  • RF design for aerospace, defence or similarly complex applications
  • Design and development at frequencies up to 40GHz
  • 3D electromagnetic simulation using tools such as CST or HFSS
  • Microwave/RF design tools such as AWR or ADS

You don't necessarily need to match every point above. If you have strong RF/microwave design experience and believe your background could transfer to our technology, we'd encourage you to apply and have a conversation with us.


Why join Teledyne Microwave UK?


This isn't simply an opportunity to work on another RF product.


You'll be joining a business with deep RF and microwave expertise where experienced engineers can have a genuine influence on technical direction, future technologies and how challenging customer problems are solved.


For the right person, we're open to appointing at Senior or Principal Engineer level, reflecting your experience and technical contribution.


And if location is the barrier, relocation support may be available to help make joining us in Lincoln possible.

Our UK benefits package includes:


  • Pension: company matching of employee contributions up to 7%
  • 25 days' annual leave
  • Option to purchase an additional week's annual leave
  • Employee Stock Purchase Plan

  • Company sick pay
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Comprehensive physical, mental and financial wellbeing support
  • Employee discounts platform
