Our client are currently looking for an experienced Senior Staff RFIC Design Engineer to work with the wireless team on exciting new RF SOC products.
As a Senior Staff RFIC Engineer you will have overall responsibility for the RFIC design leader within a highly skilled team.
You will be expected to define and realize the RF architecture and circuits for our future low-power battery and battery-free products.
***Requirements and responsibilities***
* Define the state-of-the-art RF IP architecture and circuits for our next generation low-power IoT platform from conception and design through test and production
* Design, layout, and test key circuits yourself while coaching other engineers on the team towards a successful product implementation and production launch
* Integrate the RF IP within a larger SOC, package and PCB while mitigating coupling and emissions issues
* Provide RF expertise within a team environment of other designers, test engineers, and a project manager
* Debug complex technical problems related to the radio section of the SoCs (interfaces, digital system, power ma0nagement unit, packaging, etc).
* Supervise third-party contractors. Benchmark competitive solutions and IPs, study technology and standard trends, contribute to the BU's wireless roadmap
***What you will need***
* Strong on communication and reporting in English. At ease with mentoring other teams/groups (FAE, SW, sales) and for interfacing with customers
* Enthusiasm and talent for solving complex problems over a variety of domains around the radio
* Team player sharing tasks and know-how proactively with colleagues, team driver stimulating cooperation among multidisciplinary teams/sites/partners
* Strong autonomy in his field, good communication skills, strong team player
* At least a Master degree in Electrical Engineering with specialization in RFIC design (PhD preferred)
* At least 7 years of experience in the field of CMOS RF SoCs design, including experience in more advanced process nodes such as 22nm, and circuit implementations below 1V
* Proven experience of putting low-power RF transceivers into production
* Wireless product requirements, conducting RF system analysis and breakdown along the signal path
* Design of RF/analog/mixed-signal blocks in deep-submicron CMOS: LNA, PA, mixers, PLL, VCO and crystal oscillators, data converters, and filters
* Use of state-of-the-art RF IC design/simulation tools and methodologies, and RF measurement instruments/analyzers
* Industrialization, qualification (for production) and certification of wireless solutions
* Deep understanding of RF coupling mechanism and state of the art isolation method
* Design of RF PCBs, matching networks and antennas, using electromagnetic design tools/simulators
