Qorvo is seeking an Electrical Design Engineer to join our Defense & Aerospace High-Power RF product development team. You will lead the electrical design and development of RF power amplifiers for critical applications in defense communications, radar, and electronic warfare.
What You'll Do
- Build complex HFSS EM models of RF/mmWave multi-stage high gain and high power solid-state amplifiers.
- Integrate MMICs into various housings and assemblies towards innovative high-power RF solutions.
- Develop advanced cascaded MMIC modules using 2.5D and 3D electromagnetic simulators.
- Design PCB-level power management and analog circuitry for MMIC biasing and health monitoring.
- Conduct product checkout, optimization, and design verification testing (DVT) in the test lab.
- Execute DVT analysis and present results to internal and/or external customers.
- Support products through critical lifecycle stages including concept/feasibility, development, qualification, and production.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or similar discipline.
- 2+ years of relevant work experience.
- Experience with RF/microwave circuit simulation using ADS, Microwave Office (MWO), and/or Cadence Spectre; proficiency in EDA tools for electromagnetic and wave propagation simulation.
- Strong foundation in RF and microwave engineering principles including S parameters, material permittivity, and impedance matching.
- Familiarity with PCB design; experience with schematic capture and PCB layout for RF hardware is highly desirable.
- Hands-on laboratory experience with RF test and measurement equipment (VNAs, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power meters, oscilloscopes).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to clearly summarize technical concepts.
- Self-driven, proactive learner with strong initiative.
