$185,000.00/yr - $200,000.00/yr About Gridware
Gridware is a San Francisco-based technology company dedicated to protecting and enhancing the electrical grid. We pioneered a groundbreaking new class of grid management called active grid response (AGR), focused on monitoring the electrical, physical, and environmental aspects of the grid that affect reliability and safety. Gridware’s advanced Active Grid Response platform uses high-precision sensors to detect potential issues early, enabling proactive maintenance and fault mitigation. This comprehensive approach helps improve safety, reduce outages, and ensure the grid operates efficiently. The company is backed by climate‑tech and Silicon Valley investors. For more information, please visit www.Gridware.io. Role Description
We’re looking for a Wireless RF Engineer with broad-based expertise across RF architecture, design, integration, and manufacturing. The ideal candidate combines deep theoretical and practical knowledge in areas such as electromagnetic theory, RF and wireless circuit design, communication systems, and product design trade-offs. You’ll leverage electromagnetic and system simulations, hands‑on prototyping, and test and measurement tools to understand complex system and sub‑system interactions—translating insights into production‑ready designs that balance performance, reliability, and manufacturability at scale. Responsibilities
Lead bring‑up and production of state‑of‑the‑art physical‑layer wireless communication systems Design and simulate wireless systems optimized for ultra‑low‑power applications Perform link budget modeling and system‑level performance analysis Integrate and validate wireless technologies such as cellular, GPS, Wi‑Fi, BLE, LoRa, and mesh networking Support both terrestrial and satellite communication systems Collaborate closely across electrical, firmware, and mechanical teams Drive cross‑functional alignment with antenna vendors, certification labs, and manufacturing partners Required Skills
BSEE (or higher) with 7+ years of experience in RF systems design and debug Proven experience with RF manufacturing line testing, fixture development, and validation Hands‑on expertise in RF certification and compliance (PTCRB, EMI, FCC, etc.) Experience working with antenna vendors and certification labs Strong understanding of radio desense and coexistence (CoEx) testing Skilled in RF lab setup, measurement, and performance analysis Proven collaboration experience with RF silicon vendors, and internal EE, ME, and FW teams Bonus Skills
Direct experience partnering with RF silicon vendors Deep cross‑disciplinary collaboration across hardware, firmware, and mechanical engineering Benefits
Health, Dental & Vision (Gold and Platinum with some providers plans fully covered) Paid parental leave Alternating day off (every other Monday) “Off the Grid”, a two‑week per year paid break for all employees. Commuter allowance Company‑paid training Seniority level
