Office

Linz, Austria

Full Time

As an RF Component Verification Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and executing 5G RFIC component-level verification test cases, as well as setting up, maintaining, and continuously improving the verification and test toolchain for Bridgecom’s RF ICs. This role emphasizes hands-on RF measurements of receiver and transmitter chains and involves close collaboration with cross-functional teams to establish aligned workflows, consistent data structures, and robust methodologies.

This role covers a broad range of responsibilities, which will be prioritized based on project and company needs:

Develop and execute RF verification test cases using standard RF measurement equipment to ensure specification compliance.
Perform hands-on measurements of RF receiver and transmitter chains, including gain, noise figure, linearity, and output power.
Enable a high degree of test automation from component to system level.
Raise and track issues in Bugzilla, supporting system and design engineers in root-cause analysis.
Facilitate test progress tracking by synchronizing simulation results with Bridgecom’s test management tools, enabling efficient spec vs. sim vs. measurement analysis.
Provide scripting and tool maintenance support for Bridgecom’s RF System Verification & Test Tool used for verification, calibration, and production testing.
Support and maintain the RFIC Component Verification Tool (developed in Python) for (sub-)component and module-level verification.
Ensure consistency and traceability of test cases with the requirements database (Jama) using Req-IDs, Spec-IDs, and Testcase-IDs.
Create measurement reports and interpret results, including generating pass/fail verdicts based on specification compliance and test outcomes.
Hands-on lab measurement experience in RF verification across various levels, from post-silicon to test engineering.
Strong expertise in RF receiver and transmitter chains, with a deep understanding of underlying physical effects—enabling accurate generation and interpretation of measurement results.
Familiarity with RF requirements engineering, RFIC design, and RF/HW component-level verification principles.
Extensive experience in software development and scripting (preferably in Python).
Proficiency with issue tracking systems, requirements management, and test management tools.
Experience with 5G standards is a strong plus.
Strong communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams.
Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
Preferably 2-5 years of work experience in RF component verification environment.
The opportunity to work on next-generation 5G RF semiconductor technologies tailored IoT and automotive markets.
A dynamic environment where engineers get the full picture of a product development cycle, not just execute isolated tasks.
An inclusive and diverse team in a thriving tech startup setting.
Individual growth opportunities in a growth company.
Continuous learning through collaboration with senior engineers and hands-on exposure across multiple areas of semiconductor development.
