I korthet
Ericsson is seeking a passionate Power Amplifier (PA) Designer for its new R&D center in Yokohama, Japan. This role involves defining, designing, simulating, and testing PAs for future radio systems, collaborating with diverse teams, and contributing to product improvement. A Master's or PhD in electronics or a related field is required, along with in-depth PA knowledge and hands-on experience.
Ansvarsområden
- Define PA concepts and architectures to meet power, bandwidth, efficiency, and linearity targets.
- Conduct product-relevant simulations, schematic/drawing designs, testing, and performance analysis.
- Collaborate with other functional areas (TRX, digital design, power design, system engineers) for PA integration.
- Work closely with SW/DPD, verification, reliability, and production teams across multiple sites.
- Collaborate with external vendors and operators to meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability targets.
- Work hands-on in the lab with instrumentation to characterize prototypes and optimize designs.
- Create and maintain HW specifications, design notes, databases, and provide inputs to radio architecture documents.
- Share knowledge and mentor junior engineers.
Krav
- University degree: MS in electronics or engineering physics or PhD in a PA-related subject.
- Several years of experience with power amplifiers and in-depth understanding of PA modes, topologies, and architectures.
- Hands-on experience with transistor technologies (e.g., LDMOS, GaN).
- Collaboration with multiple semiconductor device vendors and design for volume production.
- Practical experience with digital predistortion (DPD) and other PA linearization techniques.
- Proficiency in RF measurement techniques and hands-on use of RF laboratory equipment.
- Strong troubleshooting skills with a structured and practical approach.
