Senior Network Architect – RF / MAC Design

Location: Europe (On‑site)
Industry: Robotics / Deeptech

A cutting‑edge robotics company developing next‑generation distributed robotic systems is seeking an experienced wireless systems expert to architect the foundational communication layer that enables large populations of autonomous agents to coordinate in real time.

The team operates in a highly innovative space where conventional robotics, wireless communication, and distributed intelligence intersect – working on challenges that do not map to standard RF network assumptions or existing communication protocols.

If you’re excited by first‑principles engineering and breakthrough innovation, this role offers a chance to work at the frontier of what future robotic systems can become.

🔧 The Role: Senior Wireless / RF Systems Engineer

You will design and implement core medium‑access mechanisms and network‑formation logic for distributed robotic agents operating under demanding physical and environmental constraints.

This is not a protocol‑implementation job.
It is foundational systems design where classical networking models no longer apply.

Your work will directly influence how robotic agents interact, collaborate, and maintain coherent collective behaviour.

🧠 What You’ll Do

• Design low‑level RF communication and medium‑access mechanisms for decentralized robotic systems
• Define how agents establish and maintain connectivity without central coordination
• Model and design how local RF rules scale into robust, system‑level behavior
• Convert physical, energy, and hardware constraints into reliable communication models
• Prototype and iterate closely with embedded, radio, and distributed‑systems teams
• Own the architecture of the RF + MAC layer across the platform

📌 Your Profile

You bring 8+ years of professional experience (internships excluded) in:

• Wireless systems engineering
• MAC protocol design
• Distributed RF systems
• Radio or baseband‑adjacent development

You’ve worked on systems where:

• Medium access, contention, and timing are central challenges
• Distributed behavior emerges from local interactions
• Harsh constraints strongly dictate communication design
• Hardware‑level realities influence protocol choices

You are motivated by problems where existing RF standards are not enough.

🚀 Why Join

• Work in a robotics domain with significant technical depth and strategic importance
• Join a well‑funded team pushing into areas where few others operate
• Contribute to the core communication layer of a new generation of robotic systems
• Influence fundamental system architecture, not incremental features

🌟 Join the Team

This is not an incremental engineering role – it’s a chance to define how distributed robotic systems communicate and coordinate at scale.

If you want to build something truly new, we’d love to hear from you.
