You will be responsible for translating complex customer and product requirements into robust and realizable system solutions. A central part of the role is breaking down system-level requirements into clear technical specifications and guiding multidisciplinary engineering teams through development, integration, and verification activities. Success in this role requires a strong technical background in advanced RF and microwave systems, combined with an ability to view the system from a holistic perspective. You will balance technical performance, cost, schedule, and business objectives while making informed engineering decisions. As a system engineer, you will collaborate closely with specialists from multiple disciplines, including RF design, antenna design, firmware and software, mechanics, production, and verification. The role therefore requires strong communication skills, a structured way of working, and the ability to coordinate activities across several parallel development projects. Our Missile Electronics Design section within Fighter Radar is responsible for the development and verification of RF-intensive subsystems for advanced missile electronics and Electronic Warfare (EW) systems. We work in cross-functional teams where RF, software, and mechanical engineering expertise come together to deliver high-performance solutions for demanding aerospace applications. Key Responsibilities Define system architectures for advanced RF and microwave systems with demanding environmental requirements Capture, analyze, and decompose system requirements into implementable subsystem requirements. Lead technical trade studies and evaluate alternative system solutions. Coordinate and perform integration, verification, and validation activities. Support estimation, planning, risk assessment, and technical decision-making. Collaborate with RF design, antenna design, firmware software, mechanics, and test engineering. Ensure traceability between customer requirements, system design, implementation, and verification. Contribute to product evolution, technology roadmaps, and future system concepts. Your Profile We believe you have: MSc degree in Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, RF Engineering, Microwave Engineering, or a related discipline. Several years of experience developing advanced RF, microwave, radar, communication, or electronic warfare systems. Experience working with system design, systems engineering and technical leadership roles. Strong understanding of RF and microwave technologies, including antennas, transmit/receive chains, and electromagnetic systems. Experience with requirements engineering, requirement decomposition, and system-level documentation. Practical experience with integration, verification, and troubleshooting in laboratory or test environments. Experience in measurement techniques, instrument control, and technical data analysis. Proficiency in engineering tools such as MATLAB, HFSS, and ADS. Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate across multiple engineering disciplines. A structured and analytical approach combined with a strong drive to deliver results. Meritorious Experience The following qualifications are considered an advantage: Experience from aerospace, defense, radar, missile, or electronic warfare systems. Experience leading technical teams or coordinating multidisciplinary development activities. Knowledge of RF testing, environmental qualification, and verification planning. This position requires that you pass a security vetting based on the current regulations around/of security protection. For positions requiring security clearance additional obligations on citizenship may apply. What you will be a part of Explore a wealth of possibilities.
