Lead the development and productionisation of single-chip SOI RF switches covering frequencies from the kHz range to 30 GHz for instrumentation, broadband microwave and RF signal-routing applications.
  • Build a new ultra-wideband switch platform
  • Shape the technical roadmap and engineering team

关于我们的客户

Our client is a semiconductor company developing high-performance RF and microwave integrated circuits for test and measurement, communications and other demanding electronic systems.

职责描述

  • Lead the architecture, design and development of ultra-wideband RF switch ICs covering frequencies from the kHz range to 30 GHz.
  • Develop SPDT, SP4T and other multi-throw switch products for instrumentation, test and measurement, broadband microwave and RF signal-routing applications.
  • Evaluate and develop reflective and absorptive switch architectures based on product requirements for insertion loss, isolation, return loss, linearity and switching behaviour.
  • Design RF switch cores using RF-SOI or related silicon processes, including series-shunt FET structures, transistor stacks, bias networks, gate-control networks and integrated termination circuits.
  • Address low-frequency design challenges, including low-frequency cut-off, bias-network behaviour, charge recovery, switching transients, gate lag and amplitude settling.
  • Optimise high-frequency performance at 20-30 GHz through RF layout, transmission-line design, parasitic extraction and electromagnetic simulation.
  • Lead die, package and application-board co-design, covering RF pads, bumps or bond wires, package interconnects, ground structures, port-to-port coupling and PCB transitions.
  • Define product specifications and design trade-offs across insertion loss, isolation, return loss, P0.1dB/P1dB, IIP3, power handling, switching time and settling time.
  • Work with foundry and device engineering teams to optimise RF-SOI devices, process options and design rules for broadband switch applications.
  • Establish correlations between switch performance, device parameters, WAT data, wafer position, process variation and production yield.
  • Lead schematic design, simulation, physical implementation, design reviews, tape-out and post-silicon debugging.
  • Define on-wafer and packaged-device characterisation plans, including VNA measurements, calibration, de-embedding, large-signal testing and switching-transient measurements.
  • Guide the development of production test solutions covering low-frequency performance, microwave S-parameters, switching behaviour, linearity and product screening.
  • Drive products from engineering samples through qualification, customer validation and volume production.
  • Review technical work completed by RFIC, layout, package, test and product engineering teams.
  • Support product definition, customer discussions and the development of the wider broadband RF control IC roadmap.



理想的求职者

  • Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, RF/Microwave Engineering, Semiconductor Devices or a related discipline.
  • At least six years of RFIC or microwave IC design experience, with substantial hands-on responsibility for RF switch products.
  • Demonstrated experience developing a broadband RF switch IC with a frequency range extending from the kHz or low-MHz region to at least 20 GHz; experience reaching 26.5 GHz or 30 GHz is preferred.
  • Experience with RF-SOI switch design is strongly preferred. Relevant experience with silicon RF switch processes, GaAs pHEMT or other microwave switch technologies may also be considered.
  • Strong understanding of series, shunt and series-shunt switch topologies, transistor stacking, voltage distribution, biasing and device sizing.
  • Practical knowledge of the relationship between Ron, Coff, insertion loss, isolation, return loss, linearity and power handling.
  • Experience designing reflective and/or absorptive RF switches. Experience with integrated broadband 50-ohm termination networks is preferred.
  • Ability to address both ends of the frequency range, including low-frequency cut-off and settling behaviour as well as microwave parasitics and electromagnetic effects.
  • Hands-on experience with RF and microwave electromagnetic simulation, parasitic extraction and package co-design.
  • Familiarity with QFN, LGA, flip-chip or wafer-level packages for microwave IC products.
  • Experience with on-wafer RF characterisation, microwave probing, VNA calibration and de-embedding methods such as SOLT, TRL or LRRM.
  • Understanding of switching time, rise and fall time, RF settling time and amplitude-settling specifications, including the differences between these measurements.
  • Experience with PVT verification, process corners, Monte Carlo analysis and design-for-yield methodology.
  • Practical experience analysing wafer maps, WAT data, lot-to-lot variation, CP/FT correlation and production guard bands.
  • At least one RF switch product taken through tape-out, package development, qualification and volume production.
  • Ability to diagnose whether a performance issue originates from the circuit, device model, process, layout, package, evaluation board or measurement setup.
  • Experience guiding junior engineers and heading cross-functional technical reviews.
  • Professional English communication skills for technical discussions with foundries, package vendors, customers and international engineering teams.

薪酬待遇

  • Technical ownership of a single-chip RF switch platform covering the kHz range to 30 GHz.
  • Opportunity to work across RFIC design, SOI device optimisation, electromagnetic modelling, package development and production testing.
  • Direct involvement in both reflective and absorptive broadband switch architectures.
  • Responsibility extending from product definition and tape-out to customer qualification and volume production.
  • Scope to establish design methodology, test standards and engineering processes for a developing broadband RF control product line.
  • Exposure to instrumentation, test and measurement, microwave communications and other performance-driven RF applications.
  • A technical leadership role with influence over team development, foundry collaboration and future product planning.
