Location: Chennai, India (Hybrid)
Employment Type: Full-time
Department: Engineering – Modeling & Architecture

Role Overview

As an RF/Baseband Engineer at Mirabilis Design, you will contribute to building accurate, high-fidelity models of components used in the design of radar, wireless communication, tracking, jamming, and defense systems.

You will work closely with our modeling, simulation, and product engineering teams to:

• Translate radar/communication specifications into executable system models
• Validate RF/baseband algorithms for performance, timing, and functional correctness
• Work on advanced defense-grade architectures (radars, seekers, EW systems)
• Help map physical-layer behavior into the modeling pipelines

This is a hybrid technical role combining RF/Communications theory, algorithm understanding, and software modeling.

Interns and recent graduates demonstrating strong fundamentals and project experience are also encouraged to apply.

Key Responsibilities

1. System Modeling & Specification Interpretation

• Analyze radar, jammer, EW, tracking, and communication specifications
• Identify key parameters: waveform, modulation, filtering, propagation, antenna behavior
• Convert algorithmic descriptions into VisualSim behavioral blocks

2. RF/Baseband Algorithm Development

• Model components such as mixers, PLLs, ADC/DAC stages, beamforming units, FFT/IFFT, channel filters
• Develop performance metrics: SNR, BER, latency, tracking accuracy

3. Software Implementation

• Implement algorithms or utilities in Java
• Assist in integrating models into VisualSim’s libraries
• Debug, optimize, and validate model behavior

Required Qualifications

Technical Expertise

• Strong knowledge of RF/Baseband theory, including:
  • Modulation schemes
  • Digital/analog filtering
  • Signal processing
  • RF front-end concepts
  • Channel modeling
• Understanding of radar or EW system fundamentals
• Experience in at least one programming language:
  • C++
  • Java

Education

• Bachelor’s or Master’s in:
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Electronics & Communication
  • RF/Microwave Engineering
  • Defense/Avionics specialization
  • Or similar disciplines

Preferred Qualifications

Not mandatory, but a strong advantage:

• Experience working on:
  • Radar signal processing
  • Tracking systems and target modeling
  • Jammers / EW systems
  • Wireless PHY layers
• Internship or research in defense, aerospace, or communication systems
• Experience with MATLAB, GNU Radio, STK, or simulation tools
• Experience with system-level modeling or architecture simulation
