Senior RF Amplifier Design Engineer
Summary:
The successful RF Power Amplifier Engineer candidate will have a good background in high power amplifier development board level design for wireless networks, a strong theoretical system level understanding & practical work experience of system partitioning issues. Candidate must be highly energetic and have experience working within cross-functional teams.
Responsibilities:
- Develop High Power Amplifier Lineups using GaAs and LDMOS class A+AB sub assemblies for wireless Basestation and Repeater products from specifications to production.
- Develop Analog Efficiency Enhancement Techniques for High power amplifiers.
- Interface with System, RF, Firmware and Hardware Engineers to produce innovative solutions for the wireless CDMA, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, GSM and WIMAX Basestation and Repeater markets.
Key Requirements:
- BSEE with 5-7 Years experience a must, MSc and/or Ph.D. preferred.
- Experience developing Basestation, Repeater RF power amplifiers using Class AB LDMOS and Class A GaAs Devices and MMICs capable of transmitting at least 20 Watts average power. (Experience with Class E, D, or S is also desirable.)
- Knowledgeable of linearization & efficiency enhancing techniques for high power RF amplifiers.
- Working knowledge of Physical Layer parameters of modern CDMA, WCDMA & OFDM based communications standards.
- Design experience with different classes of operations of power amplifiers, power detectors, RF switches, & RF device matching for different bands.
- Experience with the following:
ACPR, ACLR, PA EVM, EM Test Equipment, Device Characterization, Understanding load-pull measurements, Verification, Circuit modeling, Circuit simulations, Thermal modeling, PA modules, Harmonic Balance
- Ability to use the appropriate tools and RF test bench equipment (Network analyzers, Impedance analyzers, RF probe stations, Spectrum analyzers, Signal generators)
- Motivated & proactive attitude coupled with good ability to work independently or as part of a team.
- Strong command of written and spoken English.
