Who are we?
Join the Revolution in GNSS and IoT Connectivity
At Qualinx, we’re not just building chips- we’re engineering the future fabric of the connected world. As a pioneering semiconductor scale-up, we’re transforming how devices connect, communicate, and operate through our ground-breaking Digital RF technology. Our mission goes beyond ultra-low power GNSS: we’re redefining what’s possible in adaptive, scalable, and intelligent connectivity for the Internet of Things.
Born from deep-tech innovation at TU Delft, our team of visionary engineers and bold thinkers is tackling the toughest challenges in GNSS and IoT- starting with power consumption and expanding into dynamic, context-aware solutions that adapt to any environment or use case. We’ve already achieved what many thought impossible: the world’s most advanced GNSS chipset. But that’s just the beginning.
At Qualinx, we believe that the future of connectivity lies in precision, efficiency, and adaptability. Our ambition is to become the invisible thread that seamlessly interconnects billions of devices—powering a smarter, more responsive world.
What Sets Us Apart
Joining Qualinx is about becoming part of a culture that’s as ambitious as it is authentic. We hold ourselves to high standards, thrive on solving the unexpected, and push boundaries together. But we also know how to enjoy the ride. Our culture is a unique blend of curiosity, team spirit, and a touch of unconventional charm. It’s fast-paced, fun, and grounded in a sober sense of purpose and perspective. Whether we’re deep in design reviews or sharing laughs over lunch, we’re building something meaningful together. At Qualinx, you’re not just contributing to a ground breaking technology - you’re helping shape a team that’s redefining what it means to work in deep tech.
Requirements:
The ideal candidate for this Digital Validation Engineer role is detail-oriented, proactive, and has a can-do attitude, with the following qualifications:
BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, or a related field.
In-depth knowledge of SoC architectures, including memory, MCU subsystems, bus protocols (AHB/APB), and digital interfaces (SPI, I²C, UART).
Experience in low-power validation and power optimization of IoT devices, including current consumption analysis, power profiling, and identification of system-level power-saving opportunities.
Strong hands-on expertise in synthesizer, ADPLL, and TX validation, including test development, characterization, and performance optimization for GNSS and BLE wireless solutions.
Proficiency in firmware debugging and real-time troubleshooting using debugging tools and creating mini-fw to test the HW
Experience with automated test setups and conducting concurrent lab tests on multiple products.
Hands-on experience with lab equipment, such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, digital multimeters, signal generators, and programmable power supplies.
Proficiency in Python programming for automation and data analysis; familiarity with tools like Excel, database management, and version control software (e.g., Git).
Fluency in English, both written and spoken with the ability to translate measurement data into clear and meaningful narratives
Bonus Points:
Knowledge of GNSS technologies for precise location-based IoT applications
Experience in Power, Voltage, and Temperature (PVT) characterization and expertise in analog hardware testing.
