Reach
At Reach, we are delivering technologies to enable the long-range, wireless transfer of power. We believe wireless energy can be as liberating for power systems as WiFi was for data systems, and are busy creating the energy infrastructure that will one day replace the aging electrical grid. We have raised funding from top tier VC's, have real world customers deploying our technology, and are continuing to build out the exceptional team that is making our vision a reality.
The Position
This role will position you as a key contributor of Reach’s radio frequency engineering team. As a Microwave Engineer, you will be a key part of Reach’s RF engineering team and develop state of the art systems that are integral to Reach’s wireless power beaming capability. Your technical know-how and innovation skills are key to designing cutting edge products in a fast-paced environment. You will contribute to design, simulation and implementation of power amplifiers and other components and subsystems at microwave frequencies. As an engineer in a small company, you will have a great deal of agency over your work, plenty of opportunity to discover and solve new challenges, and the ability to make large-impact decisions.
Key Position Responsibilities
Contribute to the design, simulation and implementation of distributed-element components. Contribute to the integration with antenna, and antenna arrays. Design and implement high efficiency power amplifiers at high frequency from 5GHz to 24GHz. Investigate, study, and introduce new components and subsystems. Contribute to system level integration with other system owners (EE, firmware, mechanical). Support product manufacturing bring up. Support certification testing and field testing. Design documentation. Write component test plans and contribute to system test plans. Qualifications
Electrical Engineering degree (Master preferred). 3+ years of experience as a microwave engineer or equivalent. Experience using ADS and HFSS. Experience with PCB layout techniques for distributed-element components implementation. Experience is developing hardware and testing for some or all of the following: Bluetooth, BLE, Wi-Fi, RF to DC power conversion. In-depth understanding of safety EMI and EMC compliance and certification. Experience using spectrum analyzer, VNA, signal generator, oscilloscope, and logic analyzer. Strong interpersonal and communication skills. Ability to communicate complex concepts. Nice-To-Haves
Experience with developing PAs and microwave distributed-element components. Hands-on experience with bring up and troubleshooting of high-power microwave chains and beam forming steering systems. $120,000 - $180,000 a year
The expected salary range for this role is based on market benchmarks and internal compensation practices. Final offers will depend on factors like experience, skills, seniority, and how each candidate aligns with the needs of the role. Where an offer falls within the range will reflect the full scope of what a new hire brings to the team.
Salary is just one part of our total compensation package, which typically includes a comprehensive benefits plan and equity.
Reach - Who We Are Reach is a pioneer in a new frontier of technology. Born out of MIT, incubated in YC, and developed in an "office space" that was once the oven of a cookie factory, we are a group of curious, passionate, and creative problem solvers, and we approach our work with vigor and humility. Much has changed since our cookie factory days, but our core philosophies have remained. Decisions are made quickly, meetings and politics are kept to a minimum, and everyone here does high-visibility work that has considerable influence on our product and company. We have weekly team lunches, quarterly offsite company events, and often spend time together outside of work bicycling, rock climbing, playing music, and hosting happy hours. We highly value diversity at our company - in not only professional capabilities and experience, but also in personal interests, schools of thought, musical tastes, and walks of life. We prioritize inclusivity, and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States.
