RFIC Design Engineer – Wireless Transceiver SoC (4G/5G)

What if your next circuit design powered the wireless infrastructure connecting millions of people across the globe?

At Texas Instruments, we don't just build chips — we build the backbone of modern wireless communication. Our Wireless Infrastructure team is pushing the boundaries of RF silicon at 28nm and beyond, and we're looking for an exceptional RFIC Design Engineer to join us.
Your circuits. Your IP. Real-world impact. Billions of connections.

🔭 About the Role

You'll be part of TI's Wireless Infrastructure Product Group — an elite team developing integrated transceiver SoCs for 3G/4G/4.5G/AAS base station markets. Working across low-IF, zero-IF, and RF sampling architectures, you'll design high-performance RF blocks that go into products used in global telecom networks.

This isn't a maintenance role. This is a build-from-scratch, innovate-from-day-one engineering position where your ideas become patented silicon.

💡 Our team holds 250+ granted patents. Your next innovation could be one of them.

🛠️ Key Responsibilities

Design and develop RF front-end circuits including wide-band VGAs, frequency synthesizers, mixers, PPAs, and LNAs
Architect and implement analog baseband signal chain blocks with focus on linearity, noise, and bandwidth
Contribute to high-speed data converter design — pipelined ADCs, Sigma-Delta ADCs, and high-speed DACs
Develop and optimize high-speed GHz digital front-end and signal processing datapaths
Drive power optimization strategies through differentiated circuit architectures in 28nm CMOS
Execute full-cycle IC design flow: schematic, simulation, layout review, silicon bring-up, and characterization
Collaborate cross-functionally with digital design, systems, and verification teams
Contribute to patent filings and technical publications based on novel design innovations
Support silicon validation, debug, and post-silicon optimization on test benches

✅ Required Skills

2–5 years of hands-on RFIC or analog IC design experience
Proficiency in RF circuit design: mixers, VCOs, PLLs, LNAs, PAs or VGAs
Strong fundamentals in analog/mixed-signal design — noise analysis, linearity, matching
Experience with advanced CMOS nodes (28nm, 22nm, or equivalent FinFET/FDSOI)
Hands-on with industry-standard EDA tools: Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, ADS, or equivalent
Solid understanding of RF system specifications and their translation to circuit-level requirements
Experience in transistor-level simulation and post-layout verification (PEX, LVS, DRC)
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to silicon-level detail

🌟 Preferred Qualifications

Experience with transceiver SoC integration for wireless communication standards
Familiarity with RF sampling or direct-conversion (zero-IF) architectures
Background in high-speed ADC/DAC design or mixed-signal signal chains
Exposure to 3GPP wireless standards — LTE, NR, or Massive MIMO / AAS systems
Prior involvement in patent writing or IP generation
M.Tech / M.S. in Microelectronics, VLSI, RF Engineering, or Electrical Engineering
Published work or academic research in RF/analog IC design
