Director of RF Hardware Systems Engineering
About this Job
The Director of RF Hardware Systems Engineering is a senior technical leadership role that owns the systems engineering function across Eridan’s radio product lines. The role sits at the intersection of systems architecture, hardware integration, and cross-functional execution, and is responsible for ensuring that engineering outputs hold together as coherent, specification-compliant systems — not just collections of subsystems.
This role serves as the internal owner of system-level specifications and integration integrity. Requirements arrive from Solutions Engineering and Deployments; this role translates them into rigorous engineering deliverables and drives alignment across hardware, firmware, and software. The Director of RF Hardware Systems Engineering is the person who is accountable when a system does — or does not — perform as intended.
The role will initially focus on Eridan’s compact and high power radio unit product lines, with scope expected to expand as additional platforms come online. Leading an RF hardware systems engineering team is a core part of the mandate from the outset.
As a Director of RF Hardware Systems Engineering, You Will
Systems Engineering Ownership
Own end-to-end systems hardware engineering across active radio product lines: requirements definition, architecture, integration, and verification
Maintain and enforce system-level specifications, ensuring fidelity from requirements intake through product qualification
Drive resolution of cross-subsystem technical issues and represent systems integrity in design reviews and milestone gate decisions
Establish systems engineering processes and documentation standards appropriate for a scaling hardware startup
Oversee board-level integration and PCB development, ensuring robust RF/high-speed layout practices and design-for-manufacturability standards
Requirements Intake and Specification Ownership
Serve as the primary engineering interface for requirements arriving from Solutions Engineering and Deployments — translating operational needs into precise, actionable system specifications
Ensure that engineering priorities and trade-off decisions are grounded in validated requirements
Partner with the VP of Engineering as well as Product and Operations leadership to align specification work with program milestones and planning commitments
Team Building and Leadership
Manage and develop a team of hardware engineers aligned to active product lines
Structure the team for growth as additional product lines come online, in partnership with the VP of Engineering
Mentor developing engineers and help build the systems engineering discipline across the organization
Cross-Functional Execution
Work closely with hardware, software, and test engineering teams to align integration milestones and system-level validation plans
Coordinate with Test and Operations on qualification activities and readiness criteria
Contribute to engineering program planning and resource discussions with cross-functional leadership
Qualities of a Successful Candidate
8+ years of experience in RF hardware systems engineering or a closely related technical discipline, with at least 3 years in a people management role
B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field
Deep expertise in RF, wireless, or telecommunications hardware systems — experience at the radio unit, subsystem, or component level in any generation (4G, 5G, satellite, defense RF, or similar)
Demonstrated ability to own system-level specifications and drive integration in complex hardware/software co-development environments
Proven track record of translating operational or customer requirements into rigorous engineering deliverables
Strong communication and influencing skills across technical and cross-functional audiences
Experience transitioning technology from R&D to high volume production
Nice to Have
Experience with 5G radio hardware (O-RAN, small cell, macro radio)
Familiarity with all levels of radio unit design, including power distribution, digital motherboards, RF circuitry, mechanical design, and manufacturing considerations
Experience scaling a systems engineering function at a startup or growth-stage hardware company
