RF,
hardware, Mixed Signal circuits, ASIC Design

Description:

Design and develop electronic circuits, equipment, systems, and
products.



ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:



* Design, debug, and test Radio
Frequency (RF) and Mixed
Signal,
and/or Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC)

* Prepare or direct preparation of product layouts, detailed drawings and
schematics

* Plan and develop experimental test programs to verify compliance to all
applicable regulations and quality guidelines, in particular, FCC Part 15 and
ETSI EN302-208

* Analyze test data and reports to determine if the proposed design meets functional and
performance specifications

* Experience in the design and
development of high power, power amplifier (PA) circuits, including regulatory,
thermal performance and power efficiency.

* Work in close collaboration with other functional teams during the life cycle
of the product and be responsible for and require design modifications

* Evaluate engineering test results for possible application to developments of
other systems

* Use of software tools and test equipment to model, analyze, simulate and test
electronic designs

* Support production facilities in the manufacture of products

* Interface with the Test Engineers and factory personnel on the testing and
production of the products

* Perform cost/size/performance tradeoff analysis of different circuit options

* Complete documentation of the design
in the required formats



EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE, AND SKILLS REQUIRED:



* 8+ years RF and analog design experience

* Minimum Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or equivalent
education or experience. MSEE or PhD in EE or other area and industry experience
preferred.

* Relevant experience with RF
test equipment and simulation tools for electronics design, testing and documentation

*  Understanding
of relevant block-level specifications, such as NF, IIP2, IIP3, phase noise,
and dynamic range.

*  Experience
with industry-standard simulation and design tools, such as Spectre, Spectre
RF, Virtuoso, and Matlab.

* Semiconductor experience with RFICs or analog circuits a plus

* RFID or Radar experience a plus
