Job Description:

In MACOM's Diode Business Line, we design control function circuits for aerospace and defense, test and measurement, cellular/5G, medical, space/hi-rel, automotive and other wireless applications. We are looking for an experienced microwave and millimeter-wave electronic design engineer. You will:
• Be responsible for the design, layout, test, and release of new control circuits for microwave and millimeter-wave applications based on Si and GaAs technologies.
• Design products such as switches, limiters, digital and analog phase shifters, digital and analog attenuators, detectors, frequency multipliers, mixers, modulators/demodulators, CMOS drivers & sequencers and multi-function RFICs, MMICs and Hybrids.
• Be responsible for all design activities and related product development activities from kickoff through engineering evaluation to product release.
• Work with our test engineering team and write test and assembly plans and procedures.
• Work with our package and assembly teams to come up with new and more cost-effective packaging and assembly methods.
• Initiate prototype builds and manage product characterization. You will design evaluation boards and characterization fixtures, direct or perform measurements, and process and present evaluation data against the product development goals.
• Work with our Product Engineering group to transfer the product to production.
• Follow a formal stage-gate new product introduction process.

Job Requirements:
• Degree (BS, MS, or PhD) in Electrical Engineering.
• More than 5 years of experience in microwave design of RFIC, MMIC and/or Hybrid products.
• Fluent with modern microwave simulation tools such as ADS or AWR.
• Familiar with integration and experience designing for high yield and low cost.
• Experience with EM simulations (Momentum, EmPro, HFSS, etc). Thermal simulation experience is a plus (Ansys Icepak or equivalent).
• Understanding and practical knowledge of working with the Smith Chart for impedance matching and tuning.
• Operation and calibration of s-parameter and nonlinear measurements using industry standard test equipment (spectrum analyzer, network analyzer, power meter, thermal imaging, etc.).
• Understanding of a variety of microwave measurements which include but are not limited to S-Parameters, IP3/TOI, compression/limiting, harmonics, DC and/or RF continuous and pulse power, noise figure, switching speed, conversion loss/gain, etc.
• Experience with the design of microwave evaluation boards including both electrical and thermal aspects.
• Device or process modeling experience is a plus (ADS, AWR, TCAD, Silvaco, etc).
• Familiarity with AutoCAD or other drawing packages is a plus.
• Strong interpersonal skills and ability to build long lasting partnerships.
