TL;DR · Wireless Systems Integration Engineer

The Wireless Systems Integration Engineer joins the silicon design group to focus on system integration, radio calibration algorithm design, chip bringup, and characterization of state-of-the-art wireless SoC products from conception through production. The role involves bringing up, validating, and tuning WiFi PHY and radio systems across emulation, FPGA, and real silicon platforms. Key responsibilities include designing and implementing algorithms to correct IQ imbalance, DC Offset, and LO feed through within Python or Matlab simulation environments. Collaborating with PHY, FW, RFIC, and digital HW designers, the engineer will develop test plans and debug issues while addressing radio impairments. Required skills include proficiency in Python, Matlab, and C/C++, along with knowledge of communication theory, DSP, OFDM systems, and wireless protocols like IEEE 802.11 or LTE to solve complex hardware performance challenges.

What you'll do

  • Bring up, validate, and tune WiFi PHY/Radio systems on emulation, FPGA, and real silicon platforms.
  • Design and implement algorithms to calibrate IQ imbalance, DC Offset, and LO feed through.
  • Benchmark radio performance using Python or Matlab simulation environments.
  • Implement calibration algorithms for both factory tuning and real-time operation.
  • Develop and execute test plans to collect and analyze results.
  • Identify and debug issues within the wireless SoC product lifecycle.
  • Build test automation and verification flows using scripting languages like Python.

What we're looking for

  • A bachelor's degree is required.
  • Experience with chip bringup and tuning wireless transmitter or receiver chains is required.
  • Familiarity with calibration algorithms is required.
  • Basic understanding of communication theory, DSP, OFDM systems, radio architectures, and radio impairments is required.
  • Proficiency in Python, Matlab, and/or C/C++ implementation is required.
  • Knowledge of wireless communication protocols like IEEE 802.11 standards or LTE is preferred.
  • Experience designing algorithms for calibration, pre-equalization, or digital pre-distortion techniques is preferred.
  • Hands-on experience using wireless test lab equipment such as spectrum analyzers and signal generators is preferred.
