Main Duties and Responsibilities

Design RF measurement apparatus using modules such as switches, attenuators, LNAs, resonators, and impedance matching circuits.
Design Evaluation, performing first silicon characterization and detailed analysis.
System-level timing analysis considering effects from silicon IO, package, and board.
Electromagnetic modelling of 2.5-D and 3-D structures on a variety of novel and commercial available materials both embedded in the silicon to external interfaces.
Work closely with a cross-functional team and internal working group on current and next-gen quantum processors in meeting signal integrity requirements.
Collaborate with task force groups for signal measurement test plans analysis and improvements.
Resolve challenges in the areas of high-speed board design, power, and analogue signal integrity.
Experience in lab evaluation of initial silicon, programming, and data analysis in C, or Python.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Desired Experience and Qualifications

This position requires detailed knowledge of some of the following:

A minimum of 5 years experience related and progressive experience.
The candidate should possess skills necessary to innovate, design, simulate and verify RF system performance at the transistor level, behavioral/architectural level, and should have a strong RF understanding.
Experience in circuit design environments such as Cadence, or ADS.
Transmission line theory and microwave engineering concepts such as S-parameter and RF networks.
