Radio Team Lead

About the Role

As a Radio Team Lead, you will own the architecture, system definition and implementation of one of our robotic systems — from concept to field deployment. You will work hand‑in‑hand with project managers and technical leads to translate mission needs into system‑level designs, coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams, and ensure overall system performance, robustness, and reliability.

Responsibilities

• Radio System Architecture: Transform system requirements into architecture solutions.
• Technical Coordination: Lead cross‑functional design across mechanical, electrical, software, GNC, and ML teams.
• Trade‑Off & Design Analysis: Conduct feasibility studies, trade‑off analyses, and system‑level simulations to guide technical choices.
• Integration & Validation: Oversee system integration, prototyping, and validation, ensuring performance targets are achieved.
• System Reviews: Drive design and architecture reviews, maintaining consistency between requirements, design, and testing.
• Continuous Improvement: Implement processes to enhance requirements traceability, system documentation, and validation workflows.

Candidate Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in radio system engineering within robotics, aerospace, or defense sectors.
• MSc in Engineering; PhD is a plus.
• Proven experience leading full system lifecycles (concept → prototype → validation).
• Strong background in radio system architecture, requirements engineering, and radio system level trade‑off analysis.
• Broad engineering culture with understanding of mechanical, electrical, and embedded systems.
• Experience coordinating multi‑disciplinary teams and managing technical interfaces.
• Rigorous, structured, and mission‑driven mindset with strong analytical skills.
• Excellent communication and documentation abilities.
• Bonus: Experience with UAS or defense systems.
