Requisition ID:72887 Job Description Skyworks Solutions is seeking an experienced RF Front-end Module (FEM) design engineer responsible for developing multi-GHz complex RF T/R modules. This includes power and multi-path T/R switches, low noise amplifiers, matching circuitry, filters, SMT components, integrated passive devices (IPD), MIPI controls, and an LDO. The candidate must understand the characteristics of these FEM building blocks in a Multi-chip Module (MCM), trade off their performance, and optimize the FEM performance to meet or exceed customer specifications. Responsibilities also include package/substrate design, floor planning, and working closely with IC designers or building block designers. Lab evaluation and hands-on tuning of prototype hardware are required for design validation. Qualifications BS with 7+ years of experience, MSEE/Ph.D. with 5+ years, or Ph.D. with 3+ years Good understanding of RF systems and familiarity with cellular standards and RFFE module requirements. Experience with passive component designs such as matching circuits, baluns, filters, and direction couplers Familiar with RF design simulation engines (Keysight ADS) and its data displays. Fluent with 3-D (HFSS, FEM) and 2.5-D EM (EMX, Momentum, Sonnet) design/simulation tools Familiarity with thermal design simulations and considerations Basic knowledge of ESD protection strategies Strong lab skills for characterization and debugging. Familiar with lab instruments including Network Analyzers, Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, Digital Receivers, Noise Figure Analyzers and Load-pull. Ability to execute project tasks with minimal supervision. Collaborative mindset focused on product requirements and schedule. Strong oral and written communication skills. Responsibilities Lead the module developments with the understanding system requirements and performance trade-offs. Work with IC designers to floorplan and co-design the FEM package/MCM substrate and provide the package models to IC designer for design simulations. Design passive circuits such as matching circuit, baluns, filters, and direction couplers with MCM FEM package or IC substrates. Work with MCM layout designers to fabricate the MCM printed circuit boards and other types of FEM packages. Support hardware validations and analyze measurement data for performance optimizations. Provide data analysis and generate performance reports to the design community and product development teams. Work with cross-functional teams for product development. The typical base pay range for this role across the U.S. is currently USD$110,600 -$210,600 per yearper year. Starting base pay will depend on relevant experience and skills, training and education, business needs, market demands, the ultimate job duties and requirements, and work location.
