Senior Power Amplifier Engineer (m/f/d)
Location: onsite
Contract: permanent or contract initially 12 months, with perspective of extension
Visa candidates are welcomed
If you are ready to take the challenges of developing cutting-edge wireless technologies to better serve the entire society, this would be the ideal opportunity for you. The Sweden RF Lab is a global hardware research center focusing on innovative emerging RF technologies and concepts, ranging from device to system level. We are constantly exploring disruptive ideas or potential paradigm shifts that may shape the future of wireless communications.
Main responsibilities:
- We are looking for a candidate with proven theoretical and practical expertise in power amplifier (PA) research for one or a few of the following applications: 5G sub-6 GHz massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) active antenna units (AAUs), 5G millimeter-wave AAUs, and traditional high-power macro radio base stations, to strengthen our RF technology research in Sweden via: Research state-of-the-art power amplifier solutions based on innovative architectures and circuits, new integration, assembly and packaging concepts, and accurate passive and active device modeling techniques.
- Tracking latest technical trends and identifying potential groundbreaking PA technologies for wireless communications.
- Documenting, presenting and promoting new concepts and solutions.
- Generating Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) based on new technical solutions.
Key qualifications:
- Proven industrial R&D experience in PA technologies for radio base station applications.
- Good mathematical skills and microwave circuit theory and their application to power amplifiers, and capable of analyzing new PA architectures as well as other microwave modules and accurately transferring circuit models to physical implementation.
- Solid knowledge on integration, packaging, and assembly processes for power amplifiers operating at both sub-6 GHz and millimeter-wave frequency bands is highly appreciated.
- Hands-on experience in integrated sub-6 GHz PA design, modeling, simulations, and characterizations is a must.
- Good knowledge of industry standard microwave circuit and electromagnetic wave simulation software.
- Familiar with various RF measurement instruments, e.g. vector network analyzers (VNAs), signal analyzers, vector signal generators, oscilloscopes, etc. Skills in developing and optimizing measurement techniques for accurately characterizing both passive and active devices.
- Prior experience in developing non-linear device models is an advantage.
- Good communication, documentation, presentation skills in written and spoken English.
- Master’s degree or equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Microwave Technology, Wireless Communications, Computer Science, Engineering Physics or similar technical field is required. A PhD degree in a relevant area is highly preferred.
