## About the role

As a Lead RF Test & Integration Engineer, you will own the qualification and production test strategy for the wireless systems that make Neros FPV drones work in the real world. You will lead RF validation for video and command-and-control links, build the test infrastructure that catches problems before they reach the field, and oversee NPI and manufacturing acceptance testing as products move from engineering prototypes into production.

## What they're looking for

- Own RF qualification testing for FPV drone video links, command-and-control links, antennas, RF front ends, and integrated aircraft/ground systems
- Define validation plans, pass/fail criteria, test procedures, data review methods, and release gates for wireless subsystem qualification
- Lead NPI test readiness for new RF products, including EVT/DVT/PVT planning, fixture readiness, station bring-up, GR&R, and factory handoff
- Oversee manufacturing acceptance testing for RF assemblies and integrated products, including conducted RF tests, radiated tests, range/performance checks, and automated production test limits
- Build, improve, and scale RF test infrastructure using VNAs, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power meters, SDRs, chambers/OTA setups, Python automation, and production test software
- Drive root-cause investigations for RF desense, interference, range degradation, yield loss, calibration drift, fixture issues, and field-return failures
