Job Description

Overview
Hexagon Autonomous Solutions is seeking a highly motivated RF Electrical Engineering Intern to join our GNSS positioning RF team. This role emphasizes RF Design, RF automation, test development, and hands-on hardware verification work to support the innovation of precision positioning and anti-jamming technology.
You will gain practical experience with a wide range of RF systems and test equipment--including network analyzers (PNAs/VNAs), spectrum and vector signal analyzers, signal generators, GNSS constellation simulators, oscilloscopes, power meters, RF switches, and programmable power supplies --while developing automation solutions in Python and contributing to design verification, prototype testing, and product development.
Location: Hexagon is a global company with locations around the world. This position is based onsite in Calgary, AB.
Responsibilities
As an RF Electrical Engineering Intern, your contributions will include:

• Automate RF test setups using Python to control Power Supplies, Thermal Chambers, PNAs, MXAs, RF switches, and signal generators
• Design, execute, and document RF performance results and testing procedures
• Perform signal analysis using PNAs, MXAs, spectrum/network analyzers
• Configure and operate RF equipment for GNSS and anti-jam system testing
• Collect and analyze test data to evaluate system performance and identify issues
• Troubleshoot test failures and perform root-cause analysis
• Support design verification and participate in reviews of RF hardware and subsystems
• Hand-build and debug test prototypes, perform component-level qualification testing, RF matching, and EM simulations
• Develop test plans and scripts to expedite hardware designer testing
• Compile high-quality written reports using standard templates
• Contribute to process improvements in RF automation and lab workflows

Qualifications
Must-Have:

• Registered in an Engineering Internship/Co-op program (Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering) and completed at least 2nd or 3rd year of studies by the start of the work term
• Strong academic credentials
• Proficiency in Python programming
• Strong communication skills (oral and written)
• Available for a 12-month, full-time (37.5 h/week) internship in Calgary, AB

Key Success Factors:

• Confident self-starter with strong attention to detail and a "first-time right" mindset
• Comfortable working both independently and in a collaborative team environment
• Motivated by challenging technical work with a focus on quality and precision
• Able to follow complex instructions while knowing when to ask for help

Nice-to-Have:

• Coursework, specialization, or interest in RF engineering, GNSS, or wireless communications
• Familiarity with RF test equipment (PNAs, MXAs, signal generators, power supplies, RF switches)
• Understanding of RF principles, GNSS signal characteristics, or interference/jamming concepts
• Experience with MATLAB or other scripting languages for signal processing and data analysis
• Ability to read and understand electronic schematics
