What You'll Do You will be a key member of the RF/Antenna Industrial IoT (IIoT) group at Cisco. Your many duties will include assisting with bring-up, simulation, integration, and validation of innovative antenna/radio designs, thoroughly testing wireless/RF subsystem performance against pre-defined world-class quality design metrics, automate test equipment to enhance our test cycle efficiency, produce test reports and present your findings. Your relentless attitude and work ethic will allow these novel HW designs to be productized into next generation offerings for the Industrial Wireless Hardware Portfolio at Cisco Systems. Minimum Qualifications BSEE (MSEE preferred) with 1+ years of experience in HW product development and testing Vast experience with automation and data processing software such as Python, C++, MATLAB and/or LabVIEW. Lab and test experience (hands-on) is a must. Exposure and knowledge with microwave and measurement equipment such as Network and Spectrum Analyzers, Power Meters, Vector Signal Analyzer/Generators, traffic generators, and wireless sniffers Experience with the basic building blocks of wireless architectures such as radio front ends, antennas, amplifiers, RF switches, filters, couplers from 450 - 7125 MHz Knowledge of wireless networking including familiarity with path loss/channel models and networking fundamentals as well as traffic generation. Prior exposure and willingness to further learn design and microwave simulation tools including ADS, CST and/or HFSS. Some knowledge of digital and analog electronics components such as power supply, memory, etc. Familiarity with schematic and layout tools such as Cadence, or similar. Knowledge of product development lifecycle(s) and general approach of the latter Desired Qualifications Knowledge of wireless technologies such as
WLAN, BT/BLE, LTE, 5G
FR1, WPAN, among others Familiarity with testing against pre-defined specs, writing test plans and assisting RF project leads with certification processes in the US, Europe and with cellular carriers across the globe Experience working with cross-functional groups in Radio Compliance, HW design and test integration Comfortable with reworking small components (e.g. 0402 SMT components) and using soldering stations Know how to open, view and manipulate both electronic CAD (PCB, layouts) and MCAD (.stp) files Who You'll Work With You will work closely with the industry's most talented group of HW and SW Engineering, Product and Program Management, supply chain teams, among others.
