TL;DR · Wireless Radio Systems Engineer

As a Wireless Radio Systems Engineer within the Wireless Silicon Design group, you will play a critical role in radio architecture, system performance, and physical layer algorithm designs for innovative wireless communication systems. You will develop system models for RF/analog designs, radio chain modeling, and integrated radio interaction models while assessing associated impairments. Your daily work involves designing methods to alleviate impairments through calibration, pre-equalization, canceller, and pre-distortion techniques. You will collaborate with hardware designers, firmware engineers, and product teams to define specifications and implement compensation algorithms. The role requires proficiency in MATLAB, Python, and C/C++ for modeling and simulation, alongside hands-on experience with spectrum analyzers and signal generators. You will address complex challenges in wireless SoC development, focusing on performance, reliability, and advanced technologies like 5G-NR, LTE, WiFi, and Bluetooth protocols.

What you'll do

  • Develop system models for RF/analog designs, radio chains, and integrated radio interaction behaviors.
  • Design algorithms and methods to mitigate radio impairments through calibration, pre-equalization, and pre-distortion techniques.
  • Perform quantitative analysis and link simulations to evaluate radio performance across various application scenarios.
  • Collaborate with hardware and firmware designers to implement physical and radio compensation algorithms.
  • Architect state-of-the-art radio systems in coordination with radio designers.
  • Bring up, test, characterize, and optimize real silicon in a laboratory environment.
  • Develop modeling and simulation tools using MATLAB, Python, or C/C++.

What we're looking for

  • BS degree with 10 years of relevant experience.
  • Understanding of RF and analog components, impairments, and calibration/reduction methods in wireless systems.
  • Proven track record of developing RF calibration algorithms for RF impairments.
  • Experience using MATLAB, Python, and/or C/C++ for algorithm development, modeling, and simulation.
  • Hands-on experience with lab testing and characterization tools like spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and power meters.
  • MSEE or PhD degree (preferred).
  • Understanding of communication theory, information theory, and signal processing algorithms (preferred).
  • Knowledge of wireless protocols such as 5G-NR/LTE, WiFi, or Bluetooth (preferred).
