WSoC PHY/MAC Validation and Integration Engineer

What you'll do

• Design, integrate, and validate PHY layer components for wireless communication protocols like Bluetooth and UWB.
• Implement and optimize DSP algorithms for signal modulation, demodulation, filtering, and error correction.
• Conduct FPGA and chip-level bring-up, including power-on testing and debugging of PHY/RF/MAC functionalities.
• Troubleshoot and resolve chip-level integration issues by identifying root causes and implementing solutions.
• Design, execute, and automate directed PHY/MAC testing scripts to control RF test equipment and chips.
• Validate and characterize algorithms on real silicon alongside RTL, PHY, RF, and MAC designers.
• Develop test plans and analyze results to identify and debug system issues.

What we're looking for

• BS degree in a relevant field.
• Minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
• Proven experience in wireless communications with a focus on PHY layer design and integration (preferred).
• Solid understanding of DSP concepts and experience implementing DSP algorithms in real-time systems (preferred).
• Experience with chip-level bring-up, hardware debugging tools, and PHY/RF/MAC verification (preferred).
• Experience with RF parametric testing and lab equipment like network analyzers and oscilloscopes (preferred).
• Knowledge of wireless protocols such as Bluetooth, WLAN, and UWB (preferred).
• Python programming skills (preferred).
