The team works with both silicon and III-V technology nodes and leverages HRL’s internal GaN foundry. You will play a critical role in creating high-performance solutions for next-generation wireless communication, radar, and sensing applications.
Essential Duties:
Contribute technical expertise and work within a focused team that designs, fabricates, integrates and tests RF and electromagnetic components and subsystems at frequencies ranging from below 0.1 to 200+ GHz.
Work closely with scientists and engineers to develop state of the art RF components such as antenna and RF front-ends for communication, radar and EW applications.
Required Skills:
Minimum 1 year of experience with RF testing and knowledge of standard microwave equipment such as VNA and spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
The ability to use and program test control software. Use of high-frequency circuit, electro-magnetic and system simulators such as ADS, AWR, VSS, Sonnet, HFSS and other RF & EM tools for design of antennas and RF front end modules and sub-assemblies is a plus.
Working knowledge of RF and microwave measurements and testing of analog electronic circuits.
A working familiarity with common passive and active microwave structures and network analysis techniques.
Knowledge of module integration, mechanical design, and PCB layout is a plus.
Applicant must be able to interact professionally with program managers, co-workers, customers, operate complex electronic equipment, perform detailed analyses of integrated circuits, and prepare written and oral presentations.
Ability to work well in a team of highly skilled engineers on complex projects, and willingness to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
