Staff Design Engineer
Location: Greater Boston, MA Area
Renumeration: $140,000 - $200,000 plus benefits
About Us
Fruition Group US is a specialist recruitment firm operating across the US, UK, Ireland, and Europe, with deep expertise in technology, engineering, and cleantech markets. We're currently partnering with a well-established, manufacturer of high-frequency semiconductor components to fill this role.
Job Brief Overview
Our client is seeking a Staff-level design engineer to lead the development of advanced silicon-based RF and microwave integrated circuits, with a particular focus on switch technologies built on Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) processes. This is a hands-on, technically deep role spanning design, simulation, verification, and production support.
Please note: due to the nature of the technology involved, this role is subject to U.S. export control regulations. Applicants must be a U.S. citizen, U.S. permanent resident, or otherwise qualify as a Protected Individual under U.S. law. This position is fully onsite in the Greater Boston, MA area.
About the Role
Design cutting-edge silicon microwave monolithic integrated circuits (MMICs), with an emphasis on SOI switch products
Own the layout process, including design rule checks and layout-versus-schematic verification
Liaise directly with semiconductor foundries to validate process design kit (PDK) models and manage wafer tapeouts
Get hands-on in the lab to characterize products and keep projects on schedule
Contribute to preliminary datasheet development
Provide technical support to applications engineering, sales, and product line teams as needed
Support products across the full development and production lifecycle
Define product specifications and build out test plans
Prepare and present at design review meetings
Key Requirements
Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, RF Engineering, or a closely related discipline
3–5 years of hands-on experience in silicon-based RF/microwave design
Demonstrated track record of taking silicon MMIC products from design through production release
Familiarity with high-frequency packaging techniques
Proficiency with industry-standard IC design tools (e.g. Cadence Virtuoso)
Experience with 3D electromagnetic simulation software (e.g. Momentum, EMX, HFSS)
Strong communication skills, both technical and cross-functional, with the ability to work across engineering, sales, and product teams
Benefits and Working Conditions
Fully onsite role based in the Greater Boston, MA area
Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage
Generous paid time off and holiday pay
Long-term disability and life/AD&D insurance
401(k) with employer matching
Additional family-oriented benefits, including education-related support programs
Equal opportunity employer
