## About the role

Own RF front-end hardware from requirements and architecture through device-level circuit design, schematic capture, PCB layout, prototype bring-up, qualification, and release. Design transmit and receive chains using power amplifiers, low-noise amplifiers, filters, duplexers, switches, couplers, attenuators, mixers, synthesizers, transceivers, phase shifters, beamformer devices, and RF matching networks.

## What they're looking for

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering , RF/Microwave Engineering, or a related field, with 8+ years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 6+ years, or a Ph.D. with 4+ years
- Demonstrated hands-on ownership of RF front-end hardware from design and analysis through prototype fabrication, bring-up, and verification
- Strong understanding of RF fundamentals, including S-parameters, impedance matching, transmission lines, noise figure, gain compression, intermodulation, stability, isolation, filtering, and RF power measurement
- Experience designing or integrating RF electronics for phased arrays, beamforming systems, radar, wireless communications, satellite communications, or a comparably complex multi-channel RF system
- Experience with RF circuit simulation tools such as Keysight ADS, Cadence AWR, or equivalent, and with schematic capture and PCB layout review tools
- Hands-on experience operating RF laboratory equipment and independently troubleshooting complex RF hardware
