About the role

Device Engineer focused on BAW resonators and filter design for Starlink, leveraging XBAW technology and MEMS-based thin film processes. Responsibilities include FEM simulations, experimental DOE, process integration, and analytical modeling to improve BAW resonator performance and filter development.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and improve FEA setups (COMSOL, HFSS) for BAW resonator simulations and optimization
  • Improve the performance of bulk acoustic wave resonators for RF filter applications
  • Develop and improve thin film bulk acoustic wave resonator process for better performance, accuracy, high yield as well as short cycle time
  • Support BAW filter design with dimensions and process integration
  • Define and generate resonator equivalent circuit models to be used in filter design
  • Plan experimental setups with multiple parameters
  • Scientific and statistical analysis of RF test results of BAW resonators
  • Support problem solving in filter design, reliability, and yield improvement

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline
  • 1+ years of experience with semiconductor devices, RF, antenna, or communication systems (internship and extracurricular experience is applicable)
