RF Engineer and Antenna Systems

About the role

ITERRA is building the system of record for low-altitude airspace, focusing on environments where traditional tracking and attribution are limited or nonexistent. Its passive, edge-native RF and electro-optical sensing solutions autonomously detect and classify Group 1–3 UAS without relying on pre-loaded signature libraries, cloud connectivity, or active emissions. The systems are purpose-built for denied, degraded, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) environments and integrate with existing command-and-control platforms.

The RF Engineer and Antenna Systems role involves designing, analyzing, and optimizing RF and antenna subsystems for passive sensing platforms.

Responsibilities

• Develop schematics, select components, and validate performance.
• Build and test RF circuits; characterize systems using lab equipment; and troubleshoot from prototype through production.
• Collaborate with hardware, firmware, and field teams to support reliable operation in DDIL environments and integration with existing command-and-control systems.
• Document designs and test results, support manufacturing, and contribute to continuous improvement of RF performance and robustness.

Requirements

• Strong RF design and RF circuits skills for developing and optimizing RF front-ends and antenna subsystems.
• Proficiency in circuit design, including schematic capture, PCB layout collaboration, and component selection.
• Hands-on experience using network analyzers and spectrum analyzers for characterization, tuning, and troubleshooting RF systems.

Datos clave

• The role is based in Hatillo, Puerto Rico.
• The role involves designing and optimizing RF and antenna subsystems for passive sensing platforms.
• Requirements include RF design, circuit design, and hands-on use of network and spectrum analyzers.
