Senior RF/Microwave Engineer

 

Description:

The engineer will be called upon to begin the design with a system analysis. This usually entails a cascade analysis whether it is for a full receiver or a subsystem. Knowledge of RF parameters such as Noise Figure, IP3, Dynamic Range, and Spurious and how they interact are essential. The engineer must have experience with RF design CAD tools such as Microwave Office, Agilent ADS, and Eagleware. Simulating circuit and component designs using linear, non-linear and EM analysis is essential. Analog design experience using op-amps and transistors are typically a part of any RF and Microwave design.

Experience:

A minimum of 5 years designing RF and Microwave systems and circuits. The engineer must have bench experience using a variety of RF and Microwave test equipment.

The following design experiences are desirable:

  • Front end receivers from 0.1 to 18 GHz
  • Frequency Synthesizers including multi-loop and YIG based designs
  • System Parameter Analysis using cascade analysis
  • Microstrip and Stripline design techniques in filter design
  • Microwave Office experience using linear, non-linear, and EM simulation
  • Familiar with RF component designs including Low Noise Amplifiers, Medium Power Amplifiers, and Microwave filters
  • Use lab equipment including Spectrum Analyzers and Network Analyzers

Education:

PHD in physics or equivalent relevant engineering discipline.
