  • End-to-end PCB design experience, including schematic capture, layout, fabrication and assembly

  • Experience with electronic design and analysis tools such as Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS, and Altium Designer

  • Excellent understanding of RF metrics such as S-parameters, P1dB, noise figure, channel power, and EVM

  • Excellent understanding of RF cascades, link budgets, and noise analysis

  • Experience with test instruments (oscilloscopes, power supplies, VNAs, spectrum analyzers)

  • Experience with low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, mixers, ADCs/DACs, phased locked loops, oscillators, and filters

Desired Skills

  • Experience building complex PCBs in Altium Designer

  • Experience selecting components for radiation-susceptible environments

  • Experience working with AD9361, Xilinx RFSoC, and similar digital-analog conversion interfaces

  • Solid experience soldering and reworking boards (0402 SMP components, QFN packages)

  • Experience performing communications link modeling and solid understanding of DSP fundamentals

  • Knowledge of antenna design, simulation, and measurement in near-field/far-field regimes

  • Experience working with high-PAPR signals and knowledge of DPD concepts
