Description

Are you passionate about designing cutting-edge RF integrated circuits for next-generation wireless systems? At Falcomm, we are transforming innovative semiconductor research into real-world solutions through high-performance, energy-efficient RF power amplifier technologies. Our mission is to enable faster, more efficient wireless communication by pushing the boundaries of RF semiconductor design.

Falcomm is seeking RFIC/MMIC Designers to develop high-frequency circuit blocks used in advanced RF front-end systems. This role will focus on the design and optimization of RF and mmWave circuits including mixers, low-noise amplifiers (LNAs), power amplifiers (PAs), switches, and voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs). The position requires close collaboration with system architects, layout engineers, packaging teams, and test engineers to deliver high-performance semiconductor solutions from concept through silicon validation.

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop RF and mmWave circuit blocks including mixers, LNAs, PAs, switches, and VCOs.
• Perform schematic design, simulation, and optimization to meet performance targets such as gain, noise figure, linearity, power, and bandwidth.
• Evaluate design trade-offs across performance, power consumption, and chip area.
• Collaborate with layout engineers to ensure RF performance and manufacturability.
• Support silicon bring-up, measurement, and debugging of fabricated devices.
• Document design methodologies, simulation results, and measurement data.
• Participate in design reviews and contribute to continuous improvement of RF design processes.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
• 2+ years of experience in RF or mmWave circuit design.
• Strong understanding of RF circuit theory and semiconductor device behavior.
• Strong circuit design skills, and experience performing analysis and simulation of both linear and non-linear circuits for RF circuit blocks.
• Proficiency in simulation and design tools such as Cadence (Virtuoso)/Agilent ADS/Mentor tools /HFSS. And/or experience using simulation tools such as Keysight PathWave Designs Suite (ADS, SystemVue, GoldenGate, Momentum), and Spectre.
• Must be willing to work full-time, onsite, in Atlanta, GA.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience designing RFIC or MMIC circuits using SOI and GaN technologies.
• Understanding of RF front-end architectures used in wireless communication systems.
• Experience supporting silicon validation and RF measurement.

Benefits

• Competitive Salary and Equity Package
• Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 401(k) Retirement Plan
• Paid Time Off (PTO) and Sick Leave
