We are seeking a Senior RF Design Engineer to design and integrate advanced RF/mmWave IP and ICs for high-frequency radar applications. This role offers the opportunity to collaborate with cross-functional teams, contribute to complex product developments, and help bring innovative solutions to market. The ideal candidate has strong experience in mmWave IC design and enjoys solving complex technical challenges in a growth-oriented environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop integrated high-frequency RF/mmWave circuits for radar applications

  • Develop and optimize circuits operating in the 24 GHz, 60 GHz, 77 GHz, and up to 120 GHz frequency ranges

  • Design and integrate RF/mmWave IPs and ICs for advanced radar systems

  • Perform system- and transistor-level design, simulation, and verification

  • Collaborate with system architects, layout engineers, and validation teams to ensure performance and manufacturability

  • Support lab validation, silicon bring-up, and performance characterization

  • Contribute to design reviews and technical problem-solving across teams

Required Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, or a related field with 4+ years of industry experience in RF/mmWave IC design (or PhD with relevant experience)

  • Strong theoretical and practical expertise in silicon-based RF IC design, particularly at frequencies above 50 GHz

  • Experience designing mmWave circuits such as LNAs, PAs, phase rotators, splitters/combiners, and frequency multipliers

  • Proficiency in analog/RF simulation, layout, and verification tools (Cadence suite, EMX or similar)

  • Solid understanding of semiconductor technologies and fabrication processes

  • Experience with CMOS or BiCMOS technologies

  • Hands-on experience with RF measurement and characterization using VNAs, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, and signal generators

Nice to Have

  • Experience with automotive radar or ADAS applications

  • Familiarity with automotive standards (e.g., ISO 26262 functional safety concepts)

  • Experience with full tape-out cycles and post-silicon bring-up/debug

  • Knowledge of mmWave packaging effects and parasitic modeling

  • Exposure to antenna-in-package or antenna-on-chip designs

  • Scripting skills (Python, MATLAB, or similar) for automation or data analysis

  • Experience mentoring junior engineers or leading small technical efforts

  • Strong documentation and communication skills in a cross-site or global team environment
