- Work with system teams and digital teams to build up RF/Analog front-end design requirements and block specifications

- Coordinate chip integration with other analog/RFIC design engineers and provide guidelines for layout teams

- Work with product application teams and production teams to complete the chip characterization, production test development, and end-customer supports

- Provide technical support and mentor junior members of the team

A successful candidate must have a good understanding in communication theories and DSP concepts and have experience in wireless transceiver design and the full silicon and production development flow. Candidate must be familiar with modern wireless transceiver architecture design, system/behavior level modeling, and simulation for trade-off analysis and performance evaluation.

Minimum Qualifications:

- MSEE degree with 15+ years or Ph.D. degree with 10+ years of industry experience in RF/Analog circuit design with advanced CMOS processes.

- Design experience with RF front-end circuits, including LNAs, Mixers and PAs, and baseband analog circuits such as ADC/DAC and filter design.

- Must have a strong background in CMOS RF transceiver architectures for modern communication systems.

- Solid understanding of device physics and advanced CMOS process.

- Sufficient familiarity with Verilog-A/AMS and Matlab for behavioral modeling and system-level simulations

- Strong knowledge on RF/Analog circuit simulation tools and testing techniques.

- Hands-on experience with RF test equipment, including spectrum analyzer and network analyzer.

- Good written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Design experience in WiFi/Bluetooth/Cellar systems is strongly preferred.

- Design experience with low-power transceivers is strongly preferred.

- Knowledge of RF production level tests is strongly preferred.

- Knowledge of wireless/digital communication theory and DSP is preferred. 

- Experience with EM extraction and modeling for custom passive devices is preferred.
