Radio Frequency Engineers

At least five years of experience is required for radio frequency engineering work. Most engineers have gained initial exposure to the field through a radio frequency engineering internship while in college. A background in general electronics, physics, and math is needed to design and improve wireless networks. Radio frequency engineers must also have strong communication skills as the work involves collaborating with others on projects. Clear writing and speaking skills are essential for preparing reports and making presentations.

Radio frequency engineers are problem solvers, able to analyze, identify, and solve issues. They must also be continually learning throughout their careers, to keep up with the latest technologies, systems, devices, and other developments in their field.
