Job Title: Principal RFIC Design Engineer

Join the Ethan Alexander Group, Inc. team as a Principal RFIC Design Engineer and contribute to the development of novel SoC products for connectivity and communications.

About the Role

This is a high-visibility position with significant impact on the success of the project. You will partner with a team of cross-functional engineers to design and develop high-performance custom RF, analog, and mixed-signal IPs.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide technical leadership and hands-on contributions on all aspects of the design of high-performance custom RF, analog, and mixed-signal IPs.
  • Supervise layout activities and perform post-layout LPE simulations and analysis.
  • Work closely with RF, analog, digital, test, and firmware design engineers.
  • Present to peers and management.
  • Work with System Engineers to derive block-level specifications based on target product requirements.
  • Run behavioral model simulations to study system performance and drive block-level specifications (Matlab, VerilogA).
  • Partner with System and Digital Engineers to design and validate methods and algorithms to alleviate circuit impairments by calibration, compensation, pre-distortion, and various other techniques.
  • Assist Test Engineers on the design of comprehensive test plans, including defining, developing, and ramping up production ATE solutions.
  • Participate in post-silicon bring-up, detailed performance characterization, optimization, and debug, including the use of lab instruments.
Requirements
  • MSEE minimum, PhD preferred.
  • 12+ years of hands-on experience in high-performance RF, Analog, and Mixed Signal IC design in advanced CMOS processes.
  • Excellent technical knowledge of RF CMOS fundamentals and implementation of RX and TX RF/Analog front-end for modern advanced wireless radios.
  • Hands-on experience in transistor-level design of radio RF front-end related circuits, such as LNA, PA, Mixers, Filters, Amplifiers, LO and clock routings, Opamps, Bias, etc.
  • Good understanding of optimization for power consumption, NF, SNR, PN/jitter, matching, area, etc.
  • Familiarity with RF device modeling, including inductor EM simulation, packaging effects, ESD structures, and supply isolation.
  • Good familiarity with IC layout, full IC design flow, and verification.
  • Strong intuitive, analytical, and problem-solving skills, strong initiative, attention-to-detail, highly organized, and personal commitment to quality.
  • Familiarity with using various development tools: Cadence Virtuoso suite, EMX, Calibre, PVS, Matlab, MS Office, etc.
  • Team player with a strong sense of urgency to meet product timeline.
  • Ability to work well on multiple tasks simultaneously.
  • Ability to work well on multi-site teams.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication and presentation skills, including the ability to articulate and explain circuit and system design decisions for both internal design documents and external reports or proposals.
Desirable Skills
  • Direct experience in WiFi and Bluetooth products, circuits, and systems.
