• Taking ownership of RF design flows, methodologies, and toolchain improvements to enhance design efficiency and quality
• Ensuring successful silicon implementation, validation, and production ramp-up, in close coordination with layout, test, and packaging teams
• Representing the RF IC team in both internal and external technical reviews

Key experience and requirements:

• A strong track record in RF IC design and development, ideally within CMOS or SOI technologies
• Deep expertise in the design and leadership of RF blocks such as LNAs, PAs, mixers, VCOs, PLLs, and synthesisers
• A solid understanding of analogue/mixed-signal design flows, simulation tools, and verification methodologies
• Prior experience leading small to mid-sized technical teams or mentoring junior engineers
