The Senior RF Engineer will be responsible for definition and architecture of leading-edge board level RF front-end systems for our current and future 5G radio units. They will be responsible for the overall definition of RF front-end requirements and implementation, where performance, power, size and cost are the key. The role spans the full development life-cycle through specification, design, documentation, implementation, debugging and testing.

Educational and experience requirements:

A Master’s degree in Electronic Engineering or other relevant discipline and demonstrated experience within wireless technology and industry is required. Position and salary are highly dependent on experience.

Required qualifications:
It is expected that candidates will have demonstrated some/all of the following competencies:

• Experience in RF design at both system and board level circuit design
• RF technical expertise in board level circuit analysis and design, including TX and RX chain line-up, as well as complete RF front-end design
• Supervision of schematic capture and layout design process for complex mixed-RF PCBs
• Experience in Analog, Digital and Power Supply design
• Knowledge of 5G radio standards
• Ability to debug complex RF failures
• Ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary engineering team is a must

Desired qualifications:

• Experience with leading-edge RF Transceiver SoCs
• Knowledge of both LDMOS and GaN Power Amplifiers design and development for modern radio telecommunication systems with DPD and CFR

Responsibilities:

• Leading the design of new 4G/5G front-end systems
• Analysing and producing the technical requirements and specifications and recommending design modifications for existing products improvements
• Active involvement in wide range of activities including RF circuits and systems simulation and design, schematics capture, PCB layout supervision, product bring-up and debugging and Device Verification Test
• Preliminary compliance testing: EMC, FCC, RFI; system integration (SW, BB, HW) and supporting the thermal management and mechanical design of radio base stations
• Provide mechanical, test and conformance departments with technical support
• Debugging of RF performance in TX and RX chains
• PCB stack-up definition for RF and mixed-signal PCB designs
• Hands-on experience in EDA software for electronic circuits (ADS, LTSpice, Matlab)
• Previous experience in mixed signal (high-speed and RF) PCB design software (Altium Designer) will be a plus
