Department Overview

CRFS, part of Motorola Solutions, is a world leader in RF technology, providing
mission-critical solutions for defence, national security, and regulatory agencies. Our RFeye ecosystem - including ruggedized sensors, direction-finding arrays, and
advanced software suites - allows our customers to detect, identify, and geolocate
signals of interest in the most complex electromagnetic environments. We operate at the cutting edge of spectrum dominance, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence.

This role is primarily 4 days a week in our Cambridge offices.

We are seeking a Technical Product Manager to bridge the gap between complex engineering capabilities and real-world customer missions. This is not a
product management role it requires a technical understanding of electronic and RF systems.

You will be the "voice of the system" of the working closely with our engineering teams to develop innovative solutions to high-stakes problems. You will take ownership of specific hardware or system-level products, ensuring they not only meet technical specifications but also solve the tactical challenges faced by our global customer base.

Key Responsibilities

• System Solution Development: Translate high-level customer requirements (e.g. low-probability-of-intercept signals in a contested land environment) into actionable technical product roadmaps and specifications.
• Product Lifecycle Management: Support the technical evolution of our RFeye hardware and integrated systems from concept through to deployment and end-of-life. Contribute to PLM activities to ensure that RFeye products meet customer requirements, are positioned and marketed effectively and that the CRFS Sales, Customer Support and Application Engineering teams are fully equipped and trained to sell and support them.
• Innovative Problem Solving: Act as a technical consultant for the sales and business development teams, proposing system configurations and features to win complex international tenders. Market Application Insight: Develop a deep understanding of RF applications, including TDOA/AOA geolocation, signal recording/forensics, and electronic warfare support.
• Hands-on Engineering: Be hands-on with wireless and signal processing product developments to understand their capabilities and limitations, with a view to ensuring they are the best they can be.
• Bridge Engineering & Commercial: Work alongside RF, FPGA, software, mechanical and systems engineers to evaluate technical trade-offs, ensuring that engineering efforts align with market needs and commercial viability.
• Documentation & Training Author high-quality white papers, functional specifications, and user stories. Ensure the Field Application Engineering (FAE) team is fully equipped to demonstrate new system capabilities.

Basic Requirements

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Education: A degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.
• Industry Experience: 3-5+ years of experience in a technical role, ideally within RF, Telecommunications, Defence, or Aerospace.
• Technical Literacy: Strong foundational knowledge of RF systems (receivers, antennas, signal processing), wireless communications and electronic hardware architecture.
• Solution Mindset: Proven ability to move beyond "features" and think about "systems" - how hardware and software interact to solve a specific end-user problem. A demonstrable ability to understand and discuss technical concepts, manage trade-offs and evaluate opportunistic new ideas with cross functional stakeholders.
• Product Management: While we welcome engineers looking to transition, prior experience in product management, technical sales support, or systems engineering is highly desirable.
• Communication and Approach: Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal. A positive attitude and ability to get things done, whilst being a committed team player. An ability to build strong relationships and collaborate with colleagues and clients on product requirements and specifications.

Desirable Skills

• Direct experience with Spectrum Monitoring or Electronic Warfare (EW) applications.
• Familiarity with Agile development methodologies and tools like Jira.

• Understanding of SWaP optimization for ruggedized field equipment.
• Understanding of deployable equipment use within a harsh or military environment.
• Source, compile and analyse market, voice of customer and competitor information.
