RF Hardware Integration
- Lead installation of RF hardware including Wave Guide (WG), coaxial lines, filters, attenuators, and RF switches per validated drawings and instructions.
- Ensure all torqueing and alignment steps are completed with precision using calibrated tools and in accordance with RF cleanliness requirements.
- Verify physical configuration of installed RF hardware against integration plans and RF test setup expectations.
Test Preparation & Support
Coordinate and supervise RF test setup preparations including VNAs, calibration kits, loads, and measurement chains.Support the RF AIT Engineer in performing RF functional and performance tests.Ensure setup traceability and configuration integrity by guiding operators in proper documentation and visual capture of changes.Team Leadership & Mentoring
Train junior RF operators in technical procedures, best practices, tool usage, and safety rules related to RF integration.Distribute tasks efficiently, ensuring execution discipline and supporting operators as needed during hands-on activities.Provide performance feedback and highlight training needs or procedural gaps to AIT management.Troubleshooting & Agile Response
Be the first responder on the ground during RF anomalies or setup deviations.Help isolate root causes and assist the RF AIT Engineer and RF Lead Engineer in implementing corrective actions or rework plans.Ensure team agility in reconfigurations, late changes, or retest setups without compromising quality or cleanliness.Documentation & Feedback
Oversee proper completion of mating sheets, torque records, and non-conformance reports by the RF operator team.Actively report unclear procedures, tooling issues, or lessons learned to improve future campaigns.Contribute to updates of RF integration instructions based on practical observations.Interfaces
