Staff RF EM Design Engineer

Job Description

The successful candidate will possess a strong understanding of electromagnetic and RF, and be a driven, committed team player.
Our EM/RF designers are responsible for designing and simulating all passive aspects of power amplifier module designs including low-loss output matching networks, high-directivity couplers, harmonic filters, multiplexers and high isolation layouts for SAW/FBAR duplexers.
As a Skyworks MSB employee you have the chance to have a uniquely large impact on the success of the company.

Responsibilities

Our RF/EM Design Engineers will design passive RF circuit designs in a fast-paced team environment. There is a heavy emphasis to work closely with PA/SOI/Filter design engineers to produce optimal co-design results.
The responsibilities will include but not be limited to the following:
•    Designing RF BAW filters
•    Designing semi-lumped RF matching networks in a PCB environment
•    Designing high-isolation laminate layouts to support high-rejection SAW and BAW filters
•    Co-designing and simulating power amplifier, switch and LNA designs
•    Participating and conducting design reviews
•    Generating circuit specifications
•    Performing lab testing using RF test equipment
•    The circuit blocks involved in a typical product development include:
•    Power Amplifiers
•    SAW/BAW Duplexers & High-Q RF Filters
•    Switches
