Job description

In this role, you will be a key leader of our team, delivering end-to-end RF integration solutions for our advanced wireless SoC products. You will enable the entire product lifecycle, from pre-silicon emulation and design development through mass production. You will own the critical first bring-up of the RF in our wireless SoCs, final silicon validation, and compliance with rigorous standards. You will own the validation methodology and schedule across pre-silicon (emulation and simulation-based validation), first silicon, characterization, and the hand-off to production test. You will report status and risk to design, systems, integration, and program management. This is a unique opportunity to deepen your technical expertise across both hardware and software domains, including wireless transceiver architecture, RF systems, DSP, embedded systems, and the full productization of world-class products. Your work will involve hands-on bench testing, debug, and system characterization to ensure our RF IPs meet and exceed performance targets. BS and a minimum of 10 years relevant industry experience. Significant experience in RF test development, hands-on debug, performance characterization, and reporting, including ownership of a validation effort through at least one silicon bring-up. Demonstrated technical leadership: leading a project or a small team, mentoring engineers, and driving cross-functional work to completion. Strong scripting and automation skills in Python (highly desired), Perl, TCL, C++, or similar languages. Hands-on experience with standard RF test equipment, including network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, vector signal analyzers, and signal generators. Strong understanding of RF fundamentals, wireless transceiver architectures, and digital communication systems. Strong knowledge of RF, PLL, and wireless system measurements (e.g., IP3, NF, ACPR, phase noise, lock time). Experience with RF PCB design, layout, and debug. Familiarity with RFIC block-level schematics and design/simulation environments. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including reporting to senior management. Master's or PhD degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Prior people management or large-scale project management experience, demonstrating strong leadership. Strong RF background and a solid understanding of RF systems fundamentals. Experience with wireless standards (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Thread/802.15.4) and their compliance measurements. Exposure to RFIC design and simulation/verification, including pre-silicon validation of RF and digital interfaces. Exposure to SoC design and simulation/verification. Experience developing production calibration and ATE test flows and handing them over to manufacturing.
