📍 Mollet del Valles (Barcelona), Spain

🏠 Hybrid Working

🌎 Global tech company founded in 2011

🌱 Our mission is to shape the future through technology

The Role

The RF engineer will carry out the RF/Antenna design activities in order to ensure the technical and functional feasibility of the products working in a multidisciplinary team with the objective of reaching cost, quality and timing goals established by the direction of the projects.

Key Responsabilities

• Take part in the development and validation of the projects together with a multidisciplinary team leading the Antenna / RF development topics (front ends, LNA, RF filters, antennas… ) following the IDS (Idneo Development System).
• Understand the requirements of our customer and following the system architecture, give direct technical feedbacks to perform schematic and product performance related to RF topics.
• Carry out the design revision under the supervision of the Master in Design.
• Support the PCB layout group, together with the HW engineer to finalise a good PCB layout quality, according to RF design rules.
• Participate in the definition & execution of RF/Hardware verification unitary test plans
• Perform the functional validation and ensure the functionality of the development prototypes delivery to customer.
• Take part in the product and process FMEA’s.
• Been able to perform Design quality activities as DFMEA, FTA, Worst Case calculations, 8D.
• Manage effectively the product modifications during the development.
• Cooperate with manufacturing teams in the products industrialization.
• Cooperate with Purchasing dept. and suppliers to ensure the optimization of the components in terms of cost, quality and manufacturability.
• Generate reduction cost ideas and conduct their implementation.
• Support the generation of all the Electronic Design document outputs:
