Job Description:
Designing SOI high-power switches for 4G/5G smartphone integrated RF Front-End (RFFE) modules. Developing antenna switches, band switches, and matching circuits on SOI dies and compact PCB layouts capable of handling high power. Designing high-performance bi-directional couplers and high-linearity step attenuators. Generating innovative IPs for new RF circuits and systems to optimize module performance and cost efficiency.
Taking new conceptual designs to successful volume production through transistor-level and PCB-level optimization. Managing and developing SOI and PCB layouts. Presenting design details and technology evaluations to various development teams.
Job Requirements:
-Ph.D. degree or master’s degree in electrical engineering.
-Minimum 10 years’ direct design experience.
-An independent, self-motivated team player who thrives in dynamic environments and manages multiple concurrent projects under tight timelines.
-Solid experience developing SOI RF circuits with a proven track record of successful production deliveries, including 4G/5G high-power switches, couplers, and attenuators.
-Strong EM simulation skills (HFSS, EMX, Clarity) and experience with RF module integration design on small-form-factor PCBs.
-Expertise in SOI transistor modeling for both small and large signals, including source/load pulling, power matching, harmonics, ruggedness, and reliability analyses.
-Hands-on experience with spectrum and network analyzers, as well as RFIC design flows and tools including Cadence Spectre, Golden Gate, AMS, ADS
Skilled in SOI transistor-level layouts, extractions, and ESD circuit design for digital, analog, and RF IOs.
-Proficient in general CMOS RFIC, analog, and digital design, with additional experience integrating SOI circuits with PAs, LNAs, and RF filters.
