About the role

Emploive seeks an experienced RF Test & Validation Engineer to own end-to-end testing of satellite system components. You will define test strategies for lab, field, and on-orbit scenarios, build test setups, and automate test execution across multi-disciplinary teams in a fast-paced startup environment. The role requires 7+ years in RF testing, strong link-budget and RF measurement expertise, and proficiency with Python for automation.

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.
