Job Area:

Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Hardware Engineering

General Summary:

The VI (Validation and Integration) team are looking for an adaptable, enthusiastic and reliable individual to join our team of skilled engineers in Cambridge. The team plays a pivotal role in the transfer to production of the company’s Mobile, Voice & Music and IoT products, from bring-up to lab evaluation to mass production. During this time, it is at the centre of an ongoing process to validate, optimize and debug the performance of the radio system. This work is done in conjunction with colleagues across a variety of teams both in the UK and overseas. Working within our team provides a unique opportunity to work across the engineering disciplines from high-level software to low-level hardware. This is enabled, in addition to the work on Qualcomm’s products, by the fact that the team also actively develops its own in-house automation infrastructure in collaboration with other teams.

The group consists of multi-disciplined (RF, analogue, software and digital) engineers who work closely with specialist design and systems engineers. This broad base of knowledge is deployed to provide optimal tuning and configuration solutions for radio operation. The role is predominantly lab-based working at circuit, cell, subsystem and system level.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
OR
Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
OR
PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field.

PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

The successful candidate will be:

  • Responsible for the pre- and post-silicon integration and optimisation of the radio system, which includes digits, firmware and analogue/RF. This involves chip bring-up, system-level validation and debugging, to provide a complete radio system solution which meets the product KPMs, including over temperature and process skews.
  • Interfacing with various cross-functional teams (RF, analogue and digital IC designers, software, system engineering, test engineers, customer engineering, and operations) to drive and incorporate the latest design solutions in the production program to improve yield, productivity, and quality.
  • Working on digital emulator platforms, essential knowledge of digital design flow, ability to read and debug RTL code.
  • Troubleshooting complex issues with the radio, making use of a coherent thought process, data analysis, test equipment and know-how of RF principles and the design of the system
  • Responsible for automation for development and validation of ASIC products, generating Python test scripts, writing embedded C code for FW radio control, supporting the business group with radio training materials and investigating customer issues and product returns where required.
  • Managing project-related activities (e.g., meetings, documentation, deliverables) between their team and other teams working on the same or similar products, operating across locations and time zones.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Master's Degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science or related field.
  • 2+ years experience with circuit design (e.g., digital, analog, RF).
  • 2+ years experience utilizing schematic capture and circuit simulation software.
  • 2+ years experience with hardware design and measurement instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, RF tools, etc.
  • 1+ years in a technical leadership role with or without direct reports.​

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Frequently transports between offices, buildings, and campuses up to ½ mile.
  • Frequently transports and installs equipment up to 5 lbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
