This position involves designing, developing, and measuring mixed-signal analog, radio-frequency, and digital wireless communication circuits operating up to the millimeter-wave bands (60 GHz). Experience with board-level circuits and design of GHz radio-frequency electronics is required. Also desirable is experience with board-level design of digital circuits, such as small controllers and processors operating at sub-100 MHz frequencies. The ideal candidate has a mixed-signal background and can navigate the world of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA’s) and high-frequency analog design for signal integrity in communication transceivers. Knowledge of sources of electromagnetic interference, spurs, and noise in circuits is required. Knowledge of standard interfaces such as I2C, SPI, JTAG, and chip-level communication is a plus. Suitable candidates should hold a B.S. or M.S. with 7+ years of experience, or equivalent. The candidate should have demonstrated expertise in Keysight ADS, or equivalent, and working knowledge of laboratory skills, including the use of spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, network analyzers, and signal generators. The candidate identifies key barriers/core problems and applies problem-solving skills to find creative solutions to complex problems.
