Join our international RF and mixed-signal design team and drive the development of next-generation Frequency Synthesizers for cutting-edge semiconductor solutions. In this role, you will combine deep analog and RF expertise with digital-assisted design approaches, working closely with system architects, digital designers and validation experts from concept to silicon.

• Your role
• Key responsibilities in your new role

• •PLL Concept & Architecture: Define and evaluate RF Digital PLL concepts (e.g., Fractional-N, ADPLL, Sub-sampling PLLs) and architectures tailored for high-frequency wireless applications
• •Modeling & Noise Budgets: Develop high-level behavioral models (e.g., MATLAB, Simulink, Verilog-A) to analyze and optimize RF PLL loop dynamics, jitter, spurs, and stringent phase noise performance.
• •Circuit Design & Implementation: Translate concepts into high-performance RF and mixed-signal circuits, focusing on critical blocks such as VCOs/DCOs, high-speed frequency dividers (prescalers), Phase-Frequency Detectors, and Charge Pumps, TDC, DTC
• •Digitally-Assisted RF Calibration: Architect and verify digital calibration algorithms for PLL (e.g., spur mitigation, and mismatch compensation, TDC, DTC calibrations) to enhance RF performance
• •System Partitioning: Partner closely with system architects, digital, and RF frontend teams to optimize mixed-signal and RF system partitioning for transceiver architectures
• •Layout & Silicon Characterization: Guide layout engineers to preserve RF signal integrity, minimize parasitic effects, and ensure optimal isolation. Support laboratory validation teams during silicon characterization and debugging of the RF PLL

• Your profile
• Qualifications and skills to help you succeed

• •Education: A degree (Master/PhD preferred) in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, or a related field with a focus on RF/microwave design
• •Experience: 5+ years of proven experience specifically focused on RF Digital PLL concept definition, architectural modeling, and circuit design
• •Technical Expertise: Deep understanding of RF design principles, PLL loop theory, microwave engineering, noise analysis (Phase Noise, Jitter), and frequency synthesizer architectures for RF applications. Proficient in advanced CMOS and BiCMOS technologies
• •Tools & Skills: Mastery of RF simulation environments (e.g., Cadence Spectre/SpectreRF, GoldenGate) and behavioral modeling tools (e.g., MATLAB, Simulink, Verilog-A)
• •Leadership Skills: Proven technical leadership, mentoring skills, and project coordination capabilities
• •Languages: Fluent in English (written and spoken). Knowledge of German is considered a plus
