Senior Antenna Design & Simulation Specialist (Remote Freelance Project)

Project Description

We need an experienced antenna engineer to review, optimize, and simulate custom antenna designs for IoT and aerospace applications. The work is 100% remote—you’ll use HFSS/CST to validate performance and provide tuning recommendations.

Key Responsibilities:

✔ Review existing antenna designs (HFSS/CST files) and identify S11/radiation pattern issues.
✔ Design new antennas from specs (patch, PIFA, helical, etc.) with fabrication-ready outputs.
✔ Simulate enclosure integration effects (plastic/metal housings) and suggest mitigations.
✔ Deliver clear reports with before/after simulation data.

Must Have:

• 5+ years of hands-on antenna design experience.
• Expertise in HFSS, CST, or FEKO (submit past simulation examples).
• Strong knowledge of impedance matching, bandwidth optimization, and near-field/far-field analysis.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with 5G/mmWave, wearable antennas, or aerospace applications.
• Background in VNA measurements or prototyping (not required for this role).

Project Scope:

• Type: One-time design review + optimization (potential for ongoing work).
• Input: Client provides frequency, size constraints, and material specs.
• Output: Simulation files + PDF report with actionable recommendations.

How to Apply:
1. Reply with:

• 1–2 examples of past antenna designs you’ve simulated (screenshots/S11 plots OK).
• Your preferred simulation tool (HFSS/CST/FEKO).
• Estimated turnaround time for a 2.4 GHz patch antenna review.

2. Shortlisted candidates will discuss specifics via Zoom.
