Senior RFIC Design Engineer

Apple is seeking a highly skilled Senior RFIC Design Engineer to join our Wireless Radio team. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for designing and developing cutting-edge RFIC solutions for wireless SoCs.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead the design of radio transceiver chains, including TX, RX, and PLL-LOGen, for wireless connectivity products.
  • Drive radio KPIs (power, area, performance) to meet product requirements.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define radio features and enable wireless innovation.
  • Work closely with RF Systems to develop block-level and high-level specifications for TX and RX lineups and PLL-LOGen.
  • Contribute to design, simulations, and extractions, from concept to transistor-level feasibility studies and KPI tradeoff analysis.
  • Design RF and Analog loopbacks for calibration and compensation.
  • Work through Co-Existence scenarios and design to meet CoEx requirements.
  • Oversee floorplan layout and verification to ensure successful tapeout.
  • Closely collaborate with RFIC test engineers to bring up, debug, and optimize wireless connectivity chips.
  • Provide design versus silicon measurements correlation and compliance with specifications for volume production.
  • Work with the foundry team to understand capabilities and limitations of new technology nodes to achieve optimum radio performance.
  • Provide guidance on analog and RF issues across Apple.
Requirements:
  • 10+ years of RF/analog and mixed-signal design experience in cutting-edge RF CMOS design.
  • Direct experience in designing and bringing into mass production of wireless transceivers in deep sub-micron RFCMOS technology.
  • Deep understanding of analog, mixed-signal, and RF circuit design, including LNAs, PAs, PLL/VCO/DCO/LOGEN blocks, mixers, baseband filters, and amplifiers.
  • Experience with DFT and DFM techniques for mass production environments.
  • Deep understanding of analog design concepts, such as noise, linearity, mismatch, stability, and other analog impairments.
  • Familiarity with various RF transceiver architectures and their trade-offs, system specifications, and ability to work with system architects to translate system requirements into circuit requirements at IC level.
  • Proven capability to work with digital design groups for optimum partition between digital and analog domains.
  • Familiarity with integration flows and challenges of wireless SoCs.
  • Strong knowledge of desense and ability to work closely with board RF/HW/Antenna teams to optimize board/module layouts for desense mitigation.
  • Experience with desense mitigation using integrated PMUs/DSPs.
  • Proficiency in Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre RF, Matlab, EM simulation tools, and mixed-signal mode verification methodology.
  • Extensive experience in silicon characterization and debug.
  • Ability to drive strong production test/QA methodologies.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • BS and 10+ years of relevant industry experience. MSEE and PhD preferred.
