Exp-2-6 Years

Job Summary

We are seeking an Antenna Design Engineer (Research Engineer) to join our Automotive R&D

team. The role focuses on the research design simulation prototyping and validation of

automotive antennas supporting advanced vehicle communication systems such as 5G LTE

GNSS V2X Wi-Fi Bluetooth and radar. The ideal candidate will contribute to next-generation

connected autonomous and electric vehicle platforms through innovative antenna solutions

optimized for automotive constraints.

Key Responsibilities

Research design and develop automotive antennas (embedded conformal shark-fin

glass-mounted PCB and on-body antennas).

Perform electromagnetic (EM) simulations and optimization using tools such as HFSS

CST FEKO or ADS

Develop antenna concepts considering vehicle packaging styling thermal and

mechanical constraints.

Prototype tune and validate antennas in lab and vehicle environments.

Conduct RF measurements including S-parameters radiation patterns efficiency

isolation and MIMO performance.

Support V2X cellular GNSS UWB radar and infotainment systems.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (RF systems mechanical validation and

manufacturing).

Perform vehicle-level antenna integration and co-existence/interference analysis.

Support homologation and compliance testing (e.g. ECE FCC CISPR ISO SAE).

Document research findings design guidelines and test reports.

Contribute to innovation patents and technical publications where applicable

Required Qualifications

Master’s degree in engineering/ Bachelors in engineering Electronics RF/Microwave

Engineering or related field.
