We are seeking an RF and Analog Design Engineer to contribute to the development of multi-tens of GHz Transimpedance amplifiers TIAs. These optical interface chips are tightly coupled with our high-performance equalizers. The results of these innovative designs have made our client TIAs best in class for coherent long-haul and metro systems as well as PAM4 data center systems.
Hybrid - 2 days a week minimum in office
In this role you will be responsible for:
