Job Title: RF Design Engineer

Location: Cambridge
Salary: £50,000 to £70,000
Employment Type: Permanent
Working Arrangements: Onsite working

If you’re an RF engineer who enjoys hands-on design, problem-solving, and developing high-performance RF circuits from concept through to validation, this role offers real technical variety and ownership.

What you’ll be doing

  • Designing and developing RF circuits, subsystems, and architectures for new products.
  • Creating and refining RF filters, amplifiers, and simulation models.
  • Supporting prototype builds, debugging, optimisation, and performance testing.
  • Preparing design documentation, specifications, and component selections.
  • Collaborating with engineers across electronics, firmware, and test.
  • Contributing to research, technology evaluation, and continuous improvement.
  • Providing support to existing designs in production when required.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
