About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or a related field is required.
  • At least 4 years of RF and electromagnetic design, verification, or related work experience is required.
  • Alternatively, a bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field and at least 4 years of System/Package Design/Technology Engineering or related experience is required.
  • Alternatively, a master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field and at least 3 years of System/Package Design/Technology Engineering or related experience is required.
  • Alternatively, a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field and at least 2 years of System/Package Design/Technology Engineering or related experience is required.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop RF passive components for next-generation highly integrated RF integrated circuits in deep sub-micron CMOS and SOI technologies.
  • Work with the circuit design team to optimize component sizes and performance for use in RF circuit blocks.
  • Deliver components that include compact models and DRC-clean physical designs.
  • Execute isolation analysis and optimization to reduce on-chip and chip-package-PCB coupling.
  • Optimize multichip carriers for RF systems, focusing on loss and isolation.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience designing and simulating RF passive components such as inductors, transformers, MOM capacitors, and passive filters.
  • Demonstrated ability with electromagnetic simulation techniques and tools, including electromagnetic solvers such as EMX, Helic, Peakview, HFSS, and Clarity.
  • Experience with circuit design and layout using Cadence tools and Keysight ADS.
  • Compact RLCK model extraction of multiport passive components.
  • Ability to use electromagnetic tools to predict circuit-level electric and magnetic coupling.
  • Experience in project leadership and multitasking.

About the Company

Qualcomm

Designs mobile chips and licenses wireless patents

Qualcomm designs the Snapdragon processors and modems inside many Android phones, and it licenses its wireless patents to device makers around the world. It helped commercialize CDMA, the cellular technology behind 3G networks, and its patents cover core parts of the 4G and 5G standards that phones use to connect. The company does not run its own chip factories; contract foundries make its chips, which it sells to makers of phones, PCs, cars, and connected devices. Device makers also pay Qualcomm royalties for using its patented technology, which forms a second business alongside chip sales. Qualcomm was founded in 1985 and is based in San Diego, California.
