Radio Frequency Engineer – Aerothermal

With this attractive opportunity you will get a chance to:

• Define and translate radio frequency (RF) requirements into practical design constraints, ensuring alignment with adjacent functional disciplines and rig test requirements.
• Develop and assess powerplant concepts that meet RF demands, applying advanced analytical methods to support robust, optimised solutions across platform and powerplant levels.
• Collaborate across engineering functions to reduce technical risk, perform electromagnetic analyses, and carry out verification and validation activities to ensure requirements are met.
• Lead the capture, management and communication of RF technical knowledge, including modelling, test data, reporting and evidence cataloguing to maintain technical integrity throughout the lifecycle.

At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.

To be successful in this role you will need to:

• Hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Physics or Engineering (or regional equivalent), or demonstrate equivalent experience.
• Bring strong technical knowledge in electromagnetic analysis and design methodologies, with awareness of cross-discipline concepts such as manufacturing engineering, aerodynamics, thermodynamics, mechanical/thermal analysis, cost engineering and product definition.
• Have experience using commercial Computational Electromagnetics (CEM) tools such as FEKO, CST or HFSS, with a good understanding of the strengths and limitations of different analysis fidelities.
• Apply logical, analytical and innovative thinking to solve complex technical problems and make balanced decisions across both technical and business considerations.
• Communicate effectively, with the ability to present complex information clearly and confidently to stakeholders at all levels.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We're committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives which are crucial to innovation and problem solving. We believe the more diverse perspectives we have, the more successful we'll be. By building a culture of caring and belonging, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.

To work for the Rolls-Royce Defence business an individual has to hold a Security Check clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you do not currently already have this in place. Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets we can only progress applications from individuals who are a UK national or, in MoD approved cases, a dual national.

As part of our selection process, candidates in certain locations may be asked to complete an online assessment, which can include cognitive and behavioural aptitude testing relevant to the role. If required, full instructions for the next steps will be provided.
