RF Hardware Verification Engineer — Lab‑Based (4G/5G)

MSH; United States; On-site; USD 130,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

Our client seeks an RF Hardware Verification Engineer to verify RF/wireless infrastructure hardware in a hands-on lab role. You will translate requirements into a verification plan, build/test setups, and automate tests, debugging to root cause.

This lab-based role focuses on RF parameter measurements (EVM, ACLR, output power, spurious emissions) with on-site work in the Dallas area.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands-on lab experience in RF or electrical hardware verification, validation or test.
• Hands-on use of RF test equipment, such as signal/spectrum analyzers, VSG/VSA, network analyzers (VNA) and power meters.
• Experience measuring RF parameters such as EVM, ACLR, output power, spurious emissions or noise figure.
• Test automation and instrument control using Python (PyVISA/SCPI), LabVIEW or TestStand.
• Hardware bring-up, debugging and root-cause analysis at the board or unit level.
• Experience writing test plans and maintaining requirement-to-test traceability.
• BS in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

Responsibilities

• Write hardware verification plans from product and design requirements, including scope, test cases, methods and acceptance criteria.
• Perform unit and board bring-up and functional verification.
• Measure RF and electrical performance, such as output power, EVM, ACLR, spurious emissions, or noise figure.
• Test across operating and corner conditions, including temperature, voltage and frequency, using thermal chambers.
• Set up test benches, operate RF test equipment, and build test automation.
• Run regression testing, analyze results, and lead fault isolation and root-cause analysis.
• Maintain requirement-to-test traceability and track verification coverage.
