Product Engineer – RF / Semiconductor Cambridge | Permanent | Full Time We’re hiring a Product Engineer for a well-funded, venture-backed RF semiconductor company in Cambridge. They’re building next-generation RF technology for connected devices. High technical bar. Fast pace. No passengers. The Role You sit between product definition and engineering delivery. Your job is simple in principle: Make sure complex RF products move from concept to manufacturable, testable, customer-ready hardware — without losing integrity along the way. You will: • Translate customer and system requirements into clear engineering specs., • Own product-level performance targets and assumptions., • Act as the technical focal point across RF, IC, software, algorithms, test and manufacturing., • Ensure traceability between requirements, simulations, measurements and validation., • Define validation strategy (lab, OTA, corner cases)., • Support NPI, DfM, DfT and yield discussions., • Help generate datasheets, reference designs and customer documentation., • Identify risks early and drive mitigation.This is not a coordination role. You need technical depth and the confidence to challenge decisions. What They’re Looking For • Degree in Electrical or RF Engineering (or similar)., • Strong experience with RF systems, RF modules or mixed-signal / analog IC products., • Solid understanding of RF measurement, validation and performance trade-offs., • Experience working across multiple engineering disciplines., • Ability to turn high-level requirements into executable engineering actions., • Structured, organised and comfortable owning outcomes.Useful Experience, • RF front-end modules (mobile, IoT, wireless connectivity)., • Semiconductor or module manufacturing flows., • Product lifecycle ownership from prototype to release., • Customer-facing technical support.Environment Scale-up pace.
