  • A deep understanding of SDR architecture, DSP theory, and RF signal processing
  • Hands-on experience with tools such as MATLAB, Simulink, VHDL, or Verilog
  • Familiarity with FPGAs and implementing DSP algorithms in embedded systems
  • Knowledge of radio propagation, interference mitigation, and system-level testing
  • At least 10 years' experience in DSP, RF, and communications system development
  • Degree or HND in Electronic Engineering, Communications, or a related discipline

What's on Offer:

  • A technically challenging, meaningful role with real-world impact
  • Supportive working environment with a focus on professional growth
  • Flexible working arrangements and a healthy work-life balance
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities
  • Regular team events, both on-site and off-site
  • Private healthcare, pension contributions, and other core benefits
