We are looking for two RF/Microwave Design Engineers to join the Aerospace & Defense organization within their Integrated Solutions team at a large semiconductor client based out of Chelmsford, MA. This 80 person department drives development of complex high-integration multi-chip assemblies that leverage integrated circuits across the entire signal chain from antenna-to-bits. Products cover a range of military, commercial, and satellite applications.

As a RF/Microwave Design Engineer, you will be responsible for designing cutting-edge integrated modules and subsystems ranging from miniaturized multi-chip modules and SiPs to high power rack-based subsystems.

- Design and evaluate complex multi-chip designs and architectures from DC to 40GHz+
- Identify viable architectures, complete system and chip-level design trades including frequency planning, spur analysis, phase noise, gain, IP2/IP3, and noise figure performance (among other key metrics)
- Verify and validate design to ensure compliance to customer specifications and expectations
- Prepare proposal documents, including technical, cost and schedule estimates
- Execute technology roadmaps and benchmark plans through release of products
