RF Validation/Characterisation Engineer

Our leading international Semiconductor partner is looking for a Senior RF Validation/Characterisation Engineer whose main responsibility will be to ensure that the product actually performs its intended functions in its intended environment. He/she will provide the product validation strategy and execute/lead the validation activities (debugging, functional evaluation and characterization) according to standards and in agreed project timeline.

MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Discuss with system architect and design engineer how a system or product requirement should be validated. This includes test cases, hardware configuration, specifications and limitations
- Define test set-up both hardware and software required to implement each test case
- Understand the effect of the PCB configuration (test and validation boards) to the product performance via simulations and measurements
- With input from design and customer Support Engineer, design the optimum board (performance vs cost trade off)
- During evaluation, works together with the design engineer in setting-up DOE to debug and optimise product performance
- Test set-up release according to required capability (reproducibility and reproducibility) and test time
- Execute or Lead the product validation according to plan
- Using data analysis tools, handle large measurement data and provide clear overview of product performance against specifications
- Provide clear analysis and conclusions on the compliancy of the product against the defined requirements
- Support the customer Support Engineer to provide evaluation boards and measurement results to the customers and local customer support teams
- Contribute in delivering BiC infrastructures for silicon validation (Accuracy, TTM, Coverage, Traceability)
- Contribute in the System and Product Validation Roadmap
- Review and support deliverables of other disciplines within the project

REQUIRED SKILLS:

- Bachelor or Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering
