RF/Microwave Design in some of the following areas would be preferred:
* Upconversion/downconversion circuits
* Mixers and signal chain design
* Amplifiers (LNAs, PAs), Transceivers, filtering, phased arrays, calibration
* Waveform generation (DDS, PLLs), oscillators (OCXO or similar)
* Experience with PLLs (integer vs fractional-N, loop bandwidth)
* Experience with signal-chain including transceiver signal chain design would be ideal
* Experience with PLLs, waveform generation, up/down conversion
* Antenna design is a plus but not required
Hardware & Circuit Design:
* Schematic capture and PCB layout (Altium preferred)
* Hands-on RF circuit testing, tuning, and component evaluation
Simulation & Analysis:
* LTSpice (required)
* HFSS, ADS or similar
* Python, MATLAB, or equivalent tools for data analysis
