About the role
About Us:
Harmattan AI is a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Following the close of a $200M Series B, valuing the company at $1.4 billion, we are expanding our teams and capabilities to deliver mission-critical systems to allied forces.
Our work is guided by clear values: building technologies with real-world impact, pursuing excellence in everything we do, setting ambitious goals, and taking on the hardest technical challenges. We operate in a demanding environment where rigor, ownership, and execution are expected.
About the Role:
As a Hardware (Electronics) Engineer within our Electronic Warfare team, you will design and develop the RF hardware and electronic front-ends at the core of our electronic warfare and signal intelligence systems – from concept to field deployment. You will work hand-in-hand with system, software and mechanical teams to turn architecture needs into robust, high-performance hardware, and to ensure overall performance, robustness and reliability.
Responsibilities:
RF Front-End Design: Design and develop radio and radar RF front-ends, from specification through to validation.
Hardware Architecture: Drive the hardware architecture of EW/SIGINT systems, ensuring performance, robustness and manufacturability.
High-Power & High-Voltage Electronics: Design high-power switching supplies (including narrow pulse generation) and high-voltage PCBs, supplies and shielding.
Integration & Validation: Lead board bring-up, RF integration, prototyping and validation against performance targets.
Technical Coordination: Collaborate across software, mechanical, GNC and ML teams on system integration and technical interfaces.
System Reviews & Documentation: Contribute to design and architecture reviews, maintaining consistency between requirements, design and testing.
Candidate Requirements
Strong background in RF hardware design is mandatory, including radio or radar front-end design.
No prior Electronic Warfare experience required.
Experience in RF integration is a plus.
Experience with high-power switching supplies (narrow pulse generation) is a definite plus.
Experience with high-voltage PCB / supply design and shielding.
MSc in Electrical / Electronics Engineering; PhD is a plus.
Broad engineering culture with understanding of mechanical, software and embedded systems.
Rigorous, structured and mission-driven mindset with strong analytical skills.
Excellent communication and documentation abilities.
We look forward to hearing how you can help shape the future of autonomous defense systems at Harmattan AI.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
