RF Designer

Job Responsibilities

• You will be responsible for the design and development of CMOS and SOI analog Integrated circuit designs for mobile handset applications
  You will be responsible for top-level chip simulation, and verification
  You will prepare design review material to present to the product development team
  You will work within a group of analog/RFIC design experts and be assigned to a multi-chip module product team with typically 3 to 5 design engineers
  You will interface with design management and module design teams to create the detailed specification, report design progress, drive analog IP development, simulate and verify chip-level performance, and to collect, track, and resolve any performance or circuit design problems

Required Experience/Skills

• MSEE+ 8 - 10 years engineering design experience or PhD + 6 years of engineering design experience
• Good communication skills, ability to break down complex problems, set priorities, report progress, execute to a schedule, and have strong teamwork skills
• Transistor-level CMOS or SOI RFIC design
  Basic device physics
  Must be experienced in analog or RFIC design at the chip level
  Must understand the basic device physics, have the ability to develop and use advanced linear and nonlinear models or simulation techniques and be able to translate between the model, simulation, physical implementation, and the measured performance of a device
  Requires experience in simulation tools, analog circuit test characterization techniques and equipment
  Must have good communication skills, be able to break down complex problems, set priorities, report progress, execute to a schedule, and have strong people skills

Preferred Skills

• The ideal candidate should have experience using Cadence or similar analog IC design tools and hands-on experience with lab measurements and characterization equipment
  Desire candidate with experience in design of common analog blocks such as op-amps, LDOs, level-shifters, digital interfaces, and bandgaps, and current references
  Knowledge of microwave circuit design and test equipment is valuable, including impedance matching, s-parameters and RF front-end architectures
  Prefer engineers with understanding of semiconductor device physics
