Role Overview and Responsibilities

Dhruva Space is looking for an experienced RF Design Engineer – SDR Hardware to join our engineering team. This role is ideal for a professional with strong expertise in SDR hardware design, including schematics, PCB layout, RF front-end circuitry, and board bring-up / debugging. The candidate will play a critical role in developing baseband and RF front-end modules to enable reliable, high-performance SDR systems for advanced communication applications.

Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to :

  • Design schematics and multi-layer PCB layouts for SDR baseband and RF boards.
  • Develop baseband hardware using Xilinx RFSoC platforms with high-speed ADCs / DACs or other advanced RF transceivers.
  • Design and integrate RF front-end circuits, including LNAs, PAs, filters, baluns, duplexers, and matching networks.
  • Apply best practices in signal integrity, power integrity, and EMI / EMC compliance for board design and conduct EMI / EMC testing.
  • Conduct board bring-up, debugging, and validation using advanced test equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, VNAs, power meters).
  • Collaborate with FPGA / DSP teams for end-to-end system integration of baseband and RF modules.
  • Perform component selection, simulations, and design verification.
  • Interface with fabrication vendors to ensure manufacturability and DFM compliance.

Candidate Requirements :

  • Bachelor’s / Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in schematic capture and PCB layout for SDR and RF hardware.
  • Strong background in Zynq SoC-based designs and Xilinx RFSoC platforms with integrated high-speed ADC / DACs.
  • Proficiency in working with high-speed RF transceivers for SDR applications.
  • Solid expertise in RF front-end design (LNAs, PAs, filters, switches, duplexers, impedance matching).
  • Hands-on experience with PCB design tools (Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, OrCAD).
  • Knowledge of high-speed digital design (DDR3 / DDR4, SERDES, JESD204B / C, LVDS, Gigabit Ethernet).
  • Proven experience in board bring-up, debugging, and hardware-level testing using advanced RF / mixed-signal equipment.
  • Familiarity with SDR concepts, modulation techniques, and tools such as GNU Radio, MATLAB / Simulink, and Vivado.
  • Additional experience in satellite communication SDRs, thermal / low-power design, ruggedized electronics, and DFx practices (DFM / DFT).
