Job description

Validate the Wireless Future — From Silicon to Signal

At Texas Instruments, our RF Connectivity group is building the next generation of WiFi and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) transceiver SoCs — the chips that will power connected devices, smart industry, and precision location systems worldwide. If you're an RF validation expert who thrives on system-level debug, RF measurements, and hands‑on silicon validation, this is your opportunity.

About the Role

We are looking for a talented RF Transceiver Validation Engineer – WiFi & UWB | SoC to join our RF Transceiver Validation Group in Bangalore, India — part of TI's expanding RF Connectivity division.

You will work on cutting‑edge RF Transceiver products (including MCU-integrated SoCs) for Wireless‑LAN (WiFi) and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) systems, covering the full transceiver chain — from LNA, mixers, base‑band filters, and high‑speed ADCs on the receive side, to DAC, up‑conversion mixers, and power amplifier stages on the transmit side, along with PLL/LO systems, calibration modules, and power management.

This is a high‑ownership, technically enriching role with ample opportunities to file patents and become a recognized leader in your domain.

Responsibilities

• Apply knowledge of transmit & receive chain operating principles
• Work with system parameters such as PER/BER/SNR, EVM, and RMSEE
• Understand modulation schemes and their impact on transceiver performance
• Rapidly and systematically identify root causes across transceiver blocks
• Debug power & biasing issues, register sequences, board‑level issues, and process marginalities
• Drive solutions independently — not just report problems

RF Measurements

• Execute and interpret receiver chain measurements: Noise Figure, Gain, P1dB, IIP2, IIP3, IQ gain/phase error, LO leakage, DC offsets
• Perform TX chain, PLL, and reference clock measurements
• Execute DC operating point measurements via test modes, voltage, and current consumption
• Develop PCB schematics and layouts for RF validation boards
• Handle PCB material selection, stackup design, and design reviews
• Work with 3rd party PCB service companies; proficiency in Altium and/or Cadence Allegro
• Develop automated measurement flows with instrument interfacing
• Process measured data across PVT corners and visualize results
• Distinguish between IC vs. setup issues using statistical analysis
• Design and program communication interfaces: SPI, UART, UCI
• Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electronics/Electrical Engineering or related field
• 3–10 years of relevant RF validation or RF design experience
• Strong proficiency in 2 or more of the key skill areas listed, particularly:
• RF SoC debug (root cause analysis, power/biasing, process marginalities)
• RF measurements (NF, gain, linearity, IQ error, LO leakage, EVM)
• Strong team player with deep engagement capability with RF design teams

Preferred Qualifications

• PCB design experience with Altium or Cadence Allegro
• Test automation skills using Python or equivalent scripting languages
• Experience with SPI/UART/UCI interface design and programming
• Exposure to calibration modules — AGC, PDET, gain, offset, IQMM
• Familiarity with low‑power design and complex power management
• Strong analytical and statistical data interpretation skills
• Passion for patent filing and technical innovation

Growth

Work on cutting‑edge WiFi & UWB transceiver SoCs shaping the future of connectivity.

Impact

Your validation work ensures performance and quality for millions of wireless devices globally.

Culture

Collaborative, innovation‑driven & technically enriching engineering environment.

Compensation

Attractive compensation package with long‑term incentives.

Innovation

Ample opportunities to file patents and become a domain‑recognized leader.

Technology

Work on full RF transceiver chains — LNA, PLL, PA, ADC/DAC, Calibration & Power Management.
