Senior Hardware Design Engineer

Job Overview
We're looking for an experienced engineer who thinks in systems, but doesn’t shy away from a soldering iron. We value technical intuition, a drive for results, and the ability to see the bigger picture. You’ll be joining a team led by Tomáš Beneš, Dronetag’s co-founder. Your closest collaborator will be Michal, who oversees the full development cycle - from the first draft to mass production.
What our Hardware team focuses on:
- Developing electronic systems for our devices – from architecture to mass production.
- Drone detection and identification – working with SDR, multilateration (TDoA, AoA).
- Optimizing and certifying our products – testing, analysis, regulatory compliance.
- Constant innovation and improvement of our development processes.
This role is a great fit if you:
- Take initiative and aren’t afraid to bring your own ideas.
- Like working independently, but collaborate effectively.
- Want to directly shape products and have a say in where they’re headed.
What you’ll be doing:
- Designing electronic circuits and PCBs (Eagle / KiCad).
- Selecting components, creating schematics and libraries.
- Debugging and testing prototypes, optimizing designs.
- Preparing documentation for certification and production.
- Working closely with firmware developers, mechanical designers, and manufacturing.
- Bringing new methodologies, automation, and innovation into our workflow.
What you should bring to the table:
- Industry experience (min. 2 years with a degree, or 5 years without).
- PCB design experience (at least 4-layer boards, SMD components with 500 μm pitch).
- Ability to design digital circuits (MCUs, SPI, Ethernet, USB, UART, I2C…).
- Basic knowledge of RF design (LoRa, Wi-Fi, Zigbee…).
- Confidence using an oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, and vector network analyzer.
- Advanced English (documentation, communication).
- Independence, attention to detail, and a get-it-done attitude.
Bonus skills we’d love to see:
- Designing high-speed digital interfaces (DDRx, HDMI, PCIe).
- RF design above 2 GHz (impedance matching, filters, amplifiers).
- Experience with SDR hardware and RF testing.
- FCC/RED certification for radio systems, EMC and ESD testing.
- Hand-soldering prototypes and advanced soldering techniques (BGA, hot air rework).
What you’ll get in return:
- A chance to work on cutting-edge tech and shape where it’s going.
- Flexible working hours and partial remote work.
- A beautiful workspace in a modern villa with a garden in Prague’s Vinohrady.
- Multisport card, access to company car/scooter.
- Teambuildings, LAN parties, drone testing days.
- Custom-fit benefits – if you need something, just ask!
