Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities:

• Propose, design, and execute test strategies of RF products/components/systems.
• Ensure accurate, repeatable, and timely characterization of the RF performance of Nuvotronics’ products/components/systems.
• Using RF test equipment (network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, etc.) to evaluate system performance, evaluate component/system compliance, and troubleshoot operational issues. Candidate should understand a variety of calibration techniques for RF measurements (TRL/LRL, SOLT, E-Cal, etc.) for a variety of test environments (probed, on-wafer, waveguide, coaxial, connectorized, etc.)
• Collaborate with engineering leads and RF engineers to develop system requirements. Define verification matrix and internal specifications of RF performance.
• Provide Design-For-Test (DFT) input during the design phase of a program and the layout of wafers. Ensure that on-wafer components can be tested accurately with an eye towards reducing test touch time as components/products move towards production.
• Identify and implement test improvements, specifically in reducing test time per part and increasing accuracy of measurement setups.
• Develop and present test strategy at key design reviews (PDR, CDR, etc.) and prepare test plans prior to leading Test Readiness Reviews (TRRs) for upcoming programs and wafers.
• Plan and execute qualification testing, such as shock, vibration, temperature cycling, humidity, accelerated life testing, power handling, RF characterization requiring high dynamic range, etc.
• Ensure that test solutions are developed and produced within the relevant issued quality processes.
• Coordinate with test, engineering, assembly, and production teams for resource planning.

• Four-year college degree in Electrical Engineering or science discipline plus a minimum of five years experience or an applicable Master’s degree and three years of related experience.
• Experienced with component-level RF characterization and measurement. Experience performing s-parameter measurements using a network analyzer is preferred.
• Experience performing electrical measurements utilizing various RF/electrical test equipment, such as network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, power meters, etc.
• Demonstrated understanding of RF Engineering principles, especially with regards to passive RF components, network analysis, and the key figures of merit used to evaluate components of an RF system.
• Experience using electromagnetic simulation tools (AWR Microwave Office, HFSS, CST, etc.) and data analysis tools (Matlab, JMP, etc.).
• Effective communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills.
• Able to prioritize work and complete multiple tasks under deadline and budget guidelines.
