Cambridge ConsultantsUnited Kingdom · Posted 3 months agoDescription
Introduction
We’re looking for RF & Electronics graduates who want to work on real product developments across a range of industries and technologies with a focus on RF. You’ll need to be willing to face a challenge and work with a range of different technologies across a variety of tasks. In return we can offer the chance to tackle some of the most exciting engineering problems around.
Overview
Cambridge Consultants undertakes over 300 technology, design and consulting projects every year. You will have the opportunity to work across the broad range of markets, from Consumer Devices to Industrial Systems, Aerospace, Telecoms and Defence and National Security. We mentor our graduates to develop their skills and take on increasing responsibility.
We’re much more interested in the engineer you can become than the one you are now, and we provide structured mentoring and hands-on support to help you grow into a confident engineer. We need people who are enthusiastic about learning, keen to pick up new skills, and can show evidence of a rigorous approach to solving real-world problems. An ability to learn and a determination to grow are more important than the knowledge you already have.
Your responsibilities
With support and guidance from your peers, you will work as part of our technical team on client assignments in multi-disciplinary projects for a wide range of markets. You may work on one or more projects at a time, in a variety of different disciplines and roles, including RF design, simulation, testing, and measurement.
You will have the chance to interact directly with clients at all phases of projects, from requirements capture and progress updates through delivery to final handover. You will collaborate closely with software, RF, signal processing, mechanical and AI engineers
You will also have access to our extensive in-house facilities. Should you attend a face-to-face interview, we’ll provide a tour of our labs which support hardware development engineering during your visit. These include:
- Prototype PCB manufacturing facilities, including SMT pick-and-place, vapour-phase reflow and x-ray inspection
- EMC emissions test facility
What you'll be doing
Cambridge Consultants works on a wide range of product and system developments for a broad range of clients. We will give you the time, support and opportunities needed to apply your skills confidently and build a reputation as a reliable member of the team. Your tasks may include:
- Field experiments to validate concepts
- PCB level RF circuit design and laboratory-based design validation of technology such as:
- RF filters
- Power amplifiers
- Oscillators
- Development of system models
- Antenna modelling using our sophisticated design tools
- As required, present designs, results and conclusions
- Work as part of a close-knit, multi-disciplinary project team focused on delivering design solutions to our clients
Some interesting RF and electronics challenges that we’ve previously solved include:
- Collaborating with LEGO to develop LEGO® SMART Play™
- Overcoming smart meter challenges for the last 5% by developing a custom ZigBee to Long-Range Radio Bridge
