Internship Characterization of digital RF Transceivers

Modern RF architectures must be space-saving energy-efficient and extremely flexible. They are increasingly being implemented with very broadband analog / digital converters to replace previous analog RF functions such as filters or mixers - or to replicate them this project methods and measurement systems are being developed to precisely measure their characteristics and derive suitable RF transceiver models.

In This Role Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Setup RF/Mixed-Signal measurement systems for analog/digital converters
• Develop new measurement procedures for mixed-signal characterization
• Build classic or ML-based models for RF transceivers
• Implement scripts in Python or LabVIEW

Who You Are:

• You are passionate about wireless technology and like to learn and work with the latest test and measurement techniques and equipment.
• You can manage your time well and reach out to mentors with questions to help drive progress and completion of goals and tasks.
• You work effectively in a group environment problem-solve and diagnose technical issues and propose reasonable solutions.

For this Role You Will Need:

• Ongoing academic studies in Electrical Engineering Information System Technology or comparable field of studies (from 4th semester)
• Basic programming knowledge (e.g. LabVIEW C/C or Python)
• Basic knowledge in signal processing and RF/wireless communications
• Good command of spoken and written English and/or German
• Availability for 4 to 6 months starting in April 2026
• This internship must be a mandatory part of your studies

Preferred Qualifications that Set You Apart:

• Experience in the practical use of measurement instruments (e.g. Signal Analyzer VNA oscilloscope)
• Interest in RF / Mixed-Signal measurement systems
• Analytical thinking and a high degree of initiative
• Mastery of a broad toolset for programming debugging and analytics (e.g. Python with Plotly and Pandas VS Code Excel)

Our Offer to You:

We attach great importance to your development so we want to make sure that you not only find a challenging job with us but also a workplace that is supportive and rewarding. Youll receive structured onboarding as well as dedicated support from professional mentors.

Practical expertise imparted:

• Opportunity to work with the latest measurement techniques and equipment
