- Key job responsibilities
- • Own the phased array RF front-end architecture across both D2D and Broadband payloads — spanning the analog signal chain from antenna element to digital interface
- • Ensure RF front-end performance across all beam steering angles — including scan loss, impedance variation, and element-level amplitude and phase consistency
- • Define T/R module architecture balancing performance, integration, and semiconductor process trade-offs across both programs
- • Work with the D2D and Broadband Phased Array Architects to ensure RF front-end consistency with full signal chain requirements
