About the role

At Analog Devices, you will be a technical leader responsible for developing advanced electronic systems and components. You will drive innovation in design methodologies and testing approaches while influencing product strategy and roadmaps. Your expertise will be instrumental in solving complex engineering challenges and mentoring engineering teams to achieve breakthrough semiconductor solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Evaluation and characterization of RF systems, ADCs, DACs, and high-speed serial interfaces for cutting-edge transceiver products.
• Debug and analyze complex mixed-signal and RF systems across all operating conditions; document and present findings to design and cross-functional teams.
• Verification & release of embedded software for system level mixed-signal products.
• Verification of Digital, DSP & Analog features.
• Formulate test plans for and conduct lab testing of detailed RF measurements of complex radio platforms such as linearity, noise figure, EVM, etc.
• Responsible for taking silicon and ARM software from early development stage to full production release.
• Develop and automate test solutions using Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and other programming tools for RF and mixed-signal verification.
• Interface as the central resource with design, test, application, software and marketing teams as the product(s) move from design to completion and distribution.
• Direct interaction with applications/marketing as well as customers to resolve product issues.
• Analysis of measurement data and presenting results to a large, technical team.
• Mentoring junior engineers.
