We are looking for an experienced Antenna Design Engineer to support the development of high-performance electronic-scanning array antenna systems operating in the Ku-band frequency range (15–18 GHz), specifically focusing on radar applications.

This role will involve the design, simulation, prototyping, and validation of advanced antenna solutions for next-generation sensing and communication systems.

The ideal candidate will bring a solid grounding in RF engineering principles, practical antenna development experience, and a collaborative approach to multidisciplinary engineering.

This is a long-term opportunity to develop new antenna designs and evolve our existing e-scan antennas with the aim of enhancing capabilities and performance while driving down the cost of manufacture.

 

Blighter Surveillance Systems Ltd. designs and sells electronic-scanning ground radar systems for national border security, counter-drone, perimeter security and coastline security. Our radars have a reputation for performance and reliability, protecting lives and critical assets worldwide.

As an SME, we are able to develop and adapt our designs quickly in response to user requirements.

Based in Great Chesterford just south of Cambridge, we are easy to reach by car and only two minutes’ walk from the nearest rail station. We operate hybrid working with 3 days in the office, though we welcome those who prefer to work in the office full time.
