Principal RF Power Design Engineer
Job Description
The Power & GaN Technology Group is responsible for the design and production of RF Power Transistor and Amplifier Modules.
We are currently looking for a Principal RF Design Engineer working in our design center located in Mesa, AZ reporting to the Engineering lead.
A Principal Design Engineer will be responsible for developing RF Amplifier Transistors, Pre-Matched Amplifiers, and Hybrid Modules in GaN technology, from conceptual to production release phases, according to MACOM’s New Product Development procedures. This includes :
- Participating to product definition, in order to asses feasibility and define target specifications.
- Executing schematic circuit simulations and EM simulations.
- Designing test circuits for evaluation and production testing.
- Generating layouts and assembly drawings.
- Device characterization and modeling.
- Maintaining a fully equipped test bench.
- Delivering fully characterized prototype samples (RF, thermal). Material procurement for prototypes.
- Generating design reports, progress reports, test reports, datasheets and bill of materials.
- Organizing design reviews.
- Cooperating with Project Manager in order to maintain an up-to-date project plan and schedule.
- Cooperating with Packaging & Assembly team to ensure compliance to manufacturing design rules and to develop cost effective solutions that lead to high production yields.
- Cooperating with Product Engineering team for production release.
- Keeping up to date with latest technologies (semiconductor, assembly, packaging, tools).
- Customer support (sampling and application notes).
- Coaching and mentoring of more junior engineers.
Job Requirements
- Master degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering.
- 10+ years of relevant experience.
- Familiarity with Microwave Power Amplifier design theory and techniques. Non-linear active device modeling experience is a plus.
- Familiarity with electrical simulation tools such as MWO or ADS.
- Familiarity with EM simulation tools (such as EM Pro and AXIEM).
- Familiarity with Thermal simulation tools (such as SYMMIC or other) is a plus.
- Familiarity with AutoCAD or other layout drawing tool.
- Familiarity with RF measurement techniques for small-signal and large-signal characterization of amplifiers : bench calibration, S-parameters, 1-tone and 2-tone power sweep measurements, pulsed measurements.
Load-Pull experience is a plus. Experience of automation of test setup is a plus.
- Hands-on board level tuning.
- Good communication, organization and documentation skills. Strong interpersonal skills and ability to build long lasting partnerships.
Ability to work in fast pace environment.
- Other duties as assigned
