**Overview**
As a Staff Power Amplifier (PA) Design Engineer, you will be involved in the design and development of high-efficiency and high-linearity Cellular Power Amplifiers (PAs) and RF Front-End Modules (FEMs) for next-generation 5G NR and 6G smartphones. You will be responsible for the complete process, from initial PA architecture definition to high-volume manufacturing.
**Responsibilities**
- Design and develop cutting-edge PAs using GaAs HBT technologies to meet the rigorous requirements of 5G NR and 6G, focusing on high linearity, wide modulation bandwidth, high power, and high efficiency.
- Lead the integration of PA dies into multi-chip modules (MCM) while optimizing for size, cost, and thermal performance.
- Conduct 3D electromagnetic (EM) simulations using HFSS and circuit-level simulations in ADS to ensure consistency between models and measured performance.
- Collaborate with filter (SAW/BAW), packaging, and systems engineers to optimize top-level module performance.
- Document and present results to both internal and external customers.
**Required Qualifications**
- Minimum of a MSEE with at least 3 years of industry experience, or a Ph.D. degree.
- Strong understanding of RF fundamentals, including S-parameters, impedance matching, stability, and linearity.
- Extensive experience in RF circuit design using ADS, HFSS, and Cadence.
- Solid background in RF measurements and characterization.
- Ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
- Excellent technical communication and presentation skills.
