RF/Wireless Design Validation Test Engineer position. Individuals will work with RFIC circuit designers and system integration engineers in : RF bench testing, debugging, and characterizing RF Wireless system performance. Individuals will either automate mentioned tasks and/or help specify test procedures especially for tasks that are done repeatedly or require extensive setup.

Key Qualifications:

• strong wireless RF background and familiarity with RF systems fundamentals.

• solid experience of RF parametric testing such as IP3, NF, ACPR, phase noise, etc.

• characterized/debugged RF PCB and chip issues within a test and script development

• strong working knowledge of RF test equipment (network analyzer, spectrum analyzer, vector signal analyzer, vector signal generator, etc.)

• unix scripting knowledge is a requirement (objected oriented programming experience such as Python is highly disirable)

• a minimum of 5+ years' experience in a lab environment

• proficiency with basic metrics for determining quality of digital communication signals measured. Description characterizing and debugging RF PCB and chip issues such as external matching networks to optimize Tx/Rx radio performance. Designing, and executing and/or automating directed RF and/or PHY/MAC testing scripts, which control and setup RF test equipment and RF chips. Writing scripts that plot, parse and analyze large data sets of data. Generating RF design/verification/test reports by working with RF and systems and integration teams to design such reports.
