  • Lead the design, layout, and packaging of RF front-end assemblies, including Antenna-in-Package (AiP) and System-in-Package (SiP) architectures.
  • Perform RF simulations and circuit optimization using Keysight ADS, HFSS, and similar tools.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, process, and test engineers to ensure electrical, thermal, and mechanical integrity.
  • Conduct VNA, spectrum, and power measurements to characterize performance and validate designs.
  • Develop test plans, procedures, and documentation consistent with ISO 9001 standards.
  • Support new product introduction (NPI) from prototype through production.



Required Qualifications


  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Microwave Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3 years of experience in RF/Microwave module or subsystem design.
  • Proficiency with Keysight ADS, HFSS, or CST for circuit and EM simulation.
  • Hands-on experience with RF test equipment: VNA, spectrum analyzer, power meters, and noise figure analyzer.
  • Understanding of impedance matching, bias networks, and amplifier design (LNA, driver, PA).
  • Experience with GaAs/GaN MMICs, hybrid modules, or multi-chip packaging.



Preferred Qualifications


  • Experience with Antenna-in-Package (AiP) or module-level integration.
  • Familiarity with III–V semiconductor processes (GaAs pHEMT, GaN HEMT).
  • Knowledge of thermal management, interposers, and RF substrates (AlN, Rogers, etc.).
  • Experience with high-frequency test automation using Keysight PathWave, BenchVue, or LabVIEW.
  • Familiarity with ISO 9001 workflows and documentation.
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills, with the ability to collaborate across global teams.
