RF and microwave engineering is a niche industry sector that has lots of subsets within it. KO2 has experience recruiting engineers doing everything from working on entire RF systems to engineers working on specific Radio Frequency elements such as antennas, receivers, transceivers and synthesisers.
We have 25 years of experience recruiting RF engineers for a range of different electronics and embedded systems businesses. During this time, we have recruited for many different roles within RF development, including RF Systems Engineers, Junior RF Design Engineers, Senior RF Design Engineers, Principal RF Design Engineers, RF Architects and RF Test Engineers.
KO2 also have experience placing RF engineers throughout the RF development lifecycle. This means working from developing the antenna, the RF system, RF component selection, working with transmitters and synthesising knowledge of sub-GHz/Bluetooth/WiFi/ZigBee front-end design and optimisation, right the way through to reverse engineering an RF system.
Our recrtuiment work has provided RF engineering skills to businesses in a wide range of industry sectors. This has included Agricultural, Audio, Automotive, Cellular Networks, Consumer, Defence, Home Automation, IoT, Instrumentation, Medical, Military, Rail, Satellite Communication, Smart Metering, Scientific, Wearables and Wireless devices.
We’ve got the skill knowledge within RF coupled with our experience recruiting RF skills to know exactly what is required for these kinds of opportunities and offer an unmatched quality of service for both candidates and clients.
Radio frequency engineers are in demand in a variety of engineering industries, including automotive, communications, space and aerospace. The kinds of technology that RF engineers specialise in working with are used in many different areas for all kinds of machines, so there’s a lot of scope for different opportunities in this role.
According to data from Glassdoor, the average annual salary for an RF engineer in the UK is £57,408. Because it’s an engineering role that requires specialist training and is in high demand, you can expect entry-level positions to have higher salaries on average than other, general engineering jobs.
According to data from Indeed, the UK cities that pay the highest average salaries for RF engineers are Reading, Basingstoke, Portsmouth, Hereford and Cambridge. London is also a city with a lot of opportunities for engineering candidates, so you’ll likely be able to find multiple job opportunities there as well.
