rf test engineer

AST SpaceMobile

<div><div><p>AST SpaceMobile is building the first and only global cellular broadband network in space to operate directly with standard, unmodified mobile devices based on our extensive IP and patent portfolio and designed for both commercial and government applications. Our engineers and space scientists are on a mission to eliminate the connectivity gaps faced by today's five billion mobile subscribers and finally bring broadband to the billions who remain unconnected.</p></div><p><b>
Position Overview</b></p>
<p>
The RF Engineer is responsible for RF‑layer service readiness for satellite&ndash;cellular connectivity across our LEO/MEO constellation. This role ensures that beams, links, and terminal RF chains consistently meet the performance, robustness, and reliability required for commercial satellite broadband and direct‑to‑device (NTN) services.</p>
<p>
You will collaborate across RF systems, waveform/PHY, NTN/RAN engineering, field‑test teams, and network engineering to define RF acceptance criteria, shape test campaigns, interpret performance results, and provide RF sign‑off for launches, market activations, and major software or hardware releases.</p>
<p>
This role blends deep RF engineering expertise, practical SATCOM experience, and structured acceptance discipline to transform a complex satellite constellation into predictable, high‑quality, repeatable services.</p>
<p>
Positioned at the center of AST SpaceMobile's RF and service‑readiness stack, the RF Engineer ensures that the constellation, beams, and terminals perform to the standards required for real‑world satellite broadband and NTN deployments. Success requires strong RF fundamentals, hands‑on SATCOM experience, and a disciplined acceptance mindset that combines technical depth with clear, actionable communication to cross‑functional teams.</p>

<div></div><div>Electromagnetic Battle Management-Joint (EMBM-J) improves communications, navigation and weapons systems by providing U.S. military commanders across all branches the ability to effectively coordinate spectrum while minimizing interference from other systems and maximizing effectiveness of their own systems. This software improves the effectiveness of the commanders' EW techniques as well as reducing the effectiveness of enemy EW, addressing the growing concern jamming has become in congested spectral environments. Commanders can use the software to access sophisticated planning capabilities, specifically tailored to spectrum-dependent assets, by providing deep insight into and situational awareness of the electromagnetic spectrum. This ultimately improves their decision-making confidence and accuracy and teaches them how the electromagnetic spectrum can be used during missions and what challenges may stand in the way. Towards this goal, the software allows its users to test plans in a virtual &quot;sandbox&quot; environment to better understand how those plans would handle a real-world scenario.</div>
