The Search

Why this hire is hard — and how we get it right

Telecommunications and RF technology lives or dies on precision and reliability — products that have to perform at frequencies and tolerances most engineers never touch. The talent that designs, tests, and validates them is specialized, scarce, and in demand across defense, wireless, and infrastructure.

The hiring challenge is the depth and the competition. RF, microwave, and antenna engineering is a narrow discipline; strong test and validation engineers who can prove reliability are equally rare. These people are employed, courted, and not browsing job boards.

We recruit telecom and RF as a technical specialty — sourcing RF and microwave engineers, electronics and hardware talent, and test professionals with the specific domain experience you need. You get engineers who've designed and validated the kind of products you build, not adjacent ones.

What We Recruit

Telecom & RF Talent We Place

Precision testing and validation decide product reliability. We recruit the engineers who own it.

RF & Microwave Engineering

RF, microwave, and antenna engineers who design and tune high-reliability products.

Electronics & Hardware

Electrical and hardware engineers for PCB, embedded, and system design.

Test & Validation

Test engineers who build the validation that proves product reliability.

Manufacturing & Operations

Operations leaders who scale electronics and RF product manufacturing.

Engineering Leadership

Engineering managers and directors who lead RF and electronics teams.

Our Bar

What we look for before we send you a candidate

Real RF/microwave depth

Genuine RF, microwave, or antenna design experience — a narrow, hard-to-fake discipline.

Designs that validate

Builds products that pass the reliability and performance testing the application demands.

Test and measurement rigor

Strong test engineering — the validation that proves a product actually works.

Right domain

Wireless, satellite, defense, fiber and optical — we match the engineer to your technology.

Hard to reach, worth reaching

The kind of specialist who isn't on job boards and has to be sourced directly.

Market Reality

RF and telecom engineering comp reflects the scarcity — engineers commonly $95K–$160K, with senior RF/microwave specialists and engineering leadership $170K+. Defense and clearance-required roles pay more. We benchmark to your technology and requirements.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do you recruit RF and microwave engineers specifically?

Yes — RF, microwave, and antenna engineering is a core specialty for us, and we distinguish genuine depth from general electronics backgrounds.

What domains do you cover?

Wireless, satellite, defense, fiber and optical, embedded systems, and test and measurement. We match the engineer to your technology.

Why is RF talent so hard to find?

It's a narrow discipline with high demand. The strong people are employed and courted, so reaching them takes a direct, relationship-driven search.

What do RF engineers earn?

Engineers commonly $95K–$160K; senior RF/microwave specialists and engineering leadership $170K+, with defense and cleared roles higher. We benchmark to your technology.

How long does an RF search take?

Often 30–75 days given the small specialized pool. We give you a realistic read up front.

Do you work retained or contingent?

Both, though scarce-skill RF searches are often best run retained.
