Principal RFIC Design Engineer

A Digital Business Unit is seeking a Principle RFIC design engineer to join the R&D team and enable the next generation of intelligent RF/wireless communication products.

Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to:
- Perform RFIC design, integration, development, and validation for intelligent integrated RF/wireless communication system-on-chip (SOC)
- 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.
