Development Engineer (m/f/x) MMIC Characterization

Project description:

Are you enthusiastic about technology? We are too! To strengthen our team of experts at our customer in the radio and communications industry, we are looking for a Development Engineer (m/f/x) MMIC Characterization in a permanent position at K-tronik. We look forward to getting to know you personally - and to working together with passion and team spirit on exciting projects and future-oriented technologies.

Tasks:

• Characterization of MMICs and RFICs in the micro- and millimeter wave range (>100 GHz)

• Carrying out on-wafer measurements using wafer probers (e.g. MPI)

• Setup, operation and optimization of RF measuring stations (VNA incl. extender, probe stations, load-pull / noise if necessary)

• Carrying out and evaluating S-parameter, power and linearity measurements (e.g. IP3, P1dB)

• Application of calibration and de-embedding procedures (TRL, SOLT, LRM)

• Analysis and interpretation of measurement results and derivation of design feedback

• Automation of measurement sequences and data evaluation (Python, MATLAB)

• Support with silicon bring-up and validation of new designs

• Coordination with internal teams (design, test) and external partners if necessary

Skills:

• Degree in electrical engineering, RF technology, microelectronics or physics or comparable training

• Several years of experience (approx. 5-8 years) in the characterization of MMICs / RFICs

• Sound knowledge of RF and millimeter wave measurement technology (>100 GHz)

• Practical experience with wafer probers and on-wafer measurements

• Confident handling of VNA measurements incl. extenders

• Experience with calibration and de-embedding techniques

• Experience in measurement automation (Python and/or MATLAB)

• Independent, structured way of working

• Requirements (Nice-to-Have)

• Experience with load-pull, noise measurements or power amplifier characterization

• Knowledge of III-V technologies (GaAs, GaN, InP)

• Experience in dealing with test houses

• General conditions

• Work in a high-end RF laboratory environment with a focus on MMIC characterization

• High proportion of practical laboratory work (not just an office job)

• Collaboration in an experienced development environment

• Quick familiarization required

Benefits:

• Collegial and friendly working atmosphere

• Flexible working hours

• 30 days vacation and flexible holiday planning

• Regular team events

• Award as Kununu TOP Company

• Corporate Benefits
