Join our Silicon Design team as an RFIC Designer and play a central role in developing advanced RF circuits and subsystems using cutting-edge CMOS technologies.

You’ll take full ownership - from interpreting system requirements and selecting topologies, through transistor-level design, layout guidance, validation, and production ramp-up..

Working closely with system, layout, backend, and validation teams, you’ll take on a hands-on, multidisciplinary role developing innovative RF solutions that directly contribute to next-generation wireless communication technologies.

Responsibilities:

• Design and simulate critical RF/Analog building blocks such as LNA, PA, Mixer, VCO, and PLL.
• Contribute to system-level analysis and architecture discussions, ensuring circuit-level designs meet overall performance and integration goals.
• Participate in defining block and system-level specifications and allocate budgets across the RF signal chain.
• Support layout floorplanning and physical verification to ensure optimal performance.
• Support lab measurements and silicon debugging to validate and optimize designs.
  
  

Requirements:

• BSc (or higher) in Electrical Engineering.
• Advanced knowledge and hands-on experience in CMOS RF and analog design, including at least one of the following: LNA, PA, Mixer, RF amplifiers, VCO.
• In-depth understanding of RFIC/analog design methodologies and flows.
• Proven ability to design and simulate at the transistor level and take blocks from concept to silicon.
• Proficiency in Cadence Virtuoso and SpectreRF. Experience with EM simulation tools.
• Familiarity with the full design flow, including layout, parasitic extraction, and physical verification.
• Practical lab experience with RF measurement equipment, silicon validation, and debugging.
  
  

Technical Background:

• Solid understanding of RF signal chains, performance bottlenecks and trade-offs.
• Experience in interpreting system-level specifications and allocating performance margins across the RF signal chain.
• Proficient in Cadence Virtuoso and complementary EDA tools.
• Experience with electromagnetic simulation tools.
• Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving mindset, and effective communication skills.
  
  

Working Style:

• Proven ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
• Self-motivated and capable of independently driving projects to completion.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced environments and adapting to new challenges.
• Strong analytical skills with attention to detail.
