Qualifications & Experience
- B.E./B.Tech. (M.E./M.Tech. preferred).
- 5–10 years in RF engineering (hands-on validation/bring-up + design/research exposure).
Required Skills
- Strong RF fundamentals and hands-on measurement/debug (VSA/VSG, spectrum, power measurements; VNA familiarity a plus).
- Experience with mmWave (60 GHz+) or similar high-frequency systems preferred.
- Python for automation/data analysis; C/C++ exposure is a plus.
- Agile tooling familiarity (Jira/Confluence/Git) preferred.
What you'll do
- The role involves developing and optimizing millimeter-wave PtMP radios, focusing on RF performance and collaborating with various teams. Responsibilities include supporting RF architecture, leading RF bring-up and characterization, and driving radio KPI improvements.
