Job description

Wireless SoC Architect | RF & Mixed-Signal IC Design

Type: Permanent | Full-time | On-site

Have you taken a wireless SoC from architecture through to production silicon?

I'm recruiting for a senior semiconductor architecture opportunity in Switzerland, focused on low-power wireless IC development.

This is a hands‑on technical leadership role for an engineer who can take ownership of complete SoC architecture, make critical design decisions and guide wireless silicon products towards production.

The Role

• Define end-to-end wireless SoC architecture and hardware/software partitioning.
• Lead architectural decisions across RF, analogue, digital and embedded subsystems.
• Optimise power, performance, silicon area and cost.
• Oversee IP integration and resolve complex chip-level design challenges.
• Provide technical direction through design, verification, silicon validation and production.

What You'll Bring

• 15+ years' experience in wireless SoC development, RF CMOS or closely related semiconductor design.
• Proven ownership of whole-chip architecture and key silicon design decisions.
• A track record of delivering wireless ICs into production.
• Strong RF, mixed-signal integration and ultra-low-power design expertise.
• Ability to lead multidisciplinary semiconductor engineering teams.
• Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.

Highly desirable:

This is a silicon architecture position, rather than a firmware or board‑level systems role.

Location & Relocation

Based in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, with five days per week on-site.
