AMS Verification Engineer (RFIC Engineering) will join cross-disciplinary teams to develop next-generation RFICs for space and ground infrastructure. The role focuses on creating "analog-on-top" and "digital-on-top" design verification flows for full-chip simulations of in-house RFICs and RF-SoCs. Key responsibilities include developing testbenches for critical interfaces, improving simulation speed and accuracy for mixed-signal IPs like PLLs, DACs, and ADCs, creating behavioral models for circuit blocks, and running EM/IR simulations. The candidate will collaborate with ATE test engineering teams to prototype testplans. Required skills include experience with AMS simulation tools, annotated gate-level simulation, SystemVerilog, UVM, and Python. Candidates should also possess knowledge of Verilog-A/AMS for behavioral modeling and a deep understanding of analog circuit fundamentals, including LDOs, bandgaps, and various amplifiers to solve complex connectivity challenges in the Starlink network.
