Job Description

In this role you will be a member of an industry-leading RF Receiver Systems Engineering team. Your primary focus will be on the evolution of RF receiver lineups level-plan calculation system simulation with a strong emphasis on the FR1 RF transceiver and RF frontend architecture. You will collaborate closely with other architecture and systems engineering groups RF design and software engineering teams to assess specify and drive receiver lineup concepts. Your attention will be on groundbreaking performance and uncompromising quality as the baseline for differentiating products. YOUR DAILY WORK INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING TASKS: - Translate system-level and performance requirements into requirements for the receiver system including a breakdown to component and block levels. - Setup simulations (e.g. MATLAB ADS C/C Python) for receiver lineup analysis. - Identify and analyze critical requirements providing in-depth assessments of RF performance metrics timelines and risks. - Align the requirements design targets and design trade-offs with other teams such as hardware design and software engineering. - Define the specifications as requirements for the RF analog hardware design project.- Assume full responsibility for the concept work and product development process and ensure its detailed integration into the product launch.


  • BS and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience is required.
  • Shown experience in the field of radio frequency specifically in cellular receiver architectures modern cellular mobile radio and modem architectures or a Ph.D. degree with prior research in the area of cellular RF.
  • Strong expertise in how to analyze partition and calculate receiver line-up from the antenna towards baseband interface and translate top-level requirements into specifications for receiver building blocks and RF components.
  • Experience in modeling and simulation of RF line-up. Matlab is crucial.
  • Proficiency in cellular 3GPP standards (LTE 5G NR FR1/FR2/FR3 6G) and UE-related radio link specifications.
  • Strong analytical skills and the capacity to effectively collaborate and connect with diverse international teams.


  • Preferred a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
  • Cellular system use cases transmit/receiver interactions and cellular signal constellation.
  • Comprehensive understanding of receiver performance parameters their associated impairments and extensive experience in analyzing their systemic impact.
  • Programming skills and experience in efficient implementation of algorithms are welcome to explore boundaries of performance requirements and system wide optimization. Python is a plus.
  • Experience in simulation tools and programming languages (e.g. ADS C/C Python) for receiver lineup analysis.
  • Understanding of integrated circuit design and RF microwave devices.
  • Background in digital signal processing.
