Interest in joining the revolution?

How you can contribute

Full time Sr Antenna Intelligence Cloud Engineer for the Engineering Department to be involved in the AIC project, with the aim to develop and maintain our Antenna Intelligence Cloud (AIC) system. The service is intended to enable the easy access to our Virtual AntennaTM technology oriented to guide our potential customers to design their IoT devices in the easier, faster, and reliable enough manner to ensure the success of their developments.

Involved in a challenging and disruptive project intended for digitalizing our support services, from electromagnetic simulations carried out in the early stages of the design cycle up to antenna measurements provided during the design stages.

Good understanding and knowledge of the design cycle required to embed an internal antenna in any IoT device. From the proof stage to the design stage up to the qualification stage including all the support services involved.

Propose, optimize and develop new scripts to implement new features and optimize the current ones in our AIC core (VBA, Python).

Provide guidance and support in all the stages of the AIC development cycle, including both backend (AIC core, AWS services) and frontend (web interface, output report) areas, providing appropriate solutions and recommendations when needed.

Define and review the AIC project specs and needs ensuring the best solution available to meet the customer expectations.

Secure project deadlines and goals.

Analyze the AIC technical needs, define the most efficient methodology to satisfy that need. Provide guidance and mentoring to the junior Antenna AIC Engineers to optimally implement such new AIC features.

Coordinate and drive the interaction with other Ignion departments and third parties that take part in the development of the AIC next generation.

Optimize the use of the electromagnetic software to simulate efficiently total or several parts of an antenna radiating system (radiating structure, feeding and matching networks) while improving the agreement between the simulated and the measured results.

Design simple and complex matching network solutions in both, active and passive systems, to easily adjust the antenna performance in the final device.

Build and experimentally adjust design prototypes.

Test antenna prototypes or products in all their main features ([S] parameters, radiation pattern, antenna and radiation efficiency, polarization, gain, directivity, TRP, TIS, etc ).

Analysis, interpretation, reporting, and presentation of the project results.

Periodic reporting to the manager of the assigned activities.

Identify bottlenecks and propose mitigation plans.

Training and coordination activities of other team members.

Train and coach team members to develop their career path at Ignion.

Creation and presentation of technical and customer reports. Participation in Virtual Antenna webinars and workshops.
