With a pure digital CMOS approach and excellent blocking performance, Broadcoms Bluetooth® chipsets and system solutions provide the technology to make wireless personal area networking a reality. Providing radio frequency, baseband, system and complete software support to OEMs and system integrators, Broadcoms Bluetooth chips enable the wireless sharing of data among scores of electronic devices, from mobile phones and wireless stereo headsets to PDAs and automobiles.

Will participate in systems design and verification of a chipset with combined Bluetooth, GPS and other wireless functionality. Must be able to take ownership for the verification of the chip to ensure it meets all system performance requirements related at least one of the wireless standards as well as help with the verify the coexistence of the various wireless within the chip.

The successful candidate will work not only on the verification of the device, but initially in the design of physical layer algorithms for at least one of the relevant wireless components, including modeling RF and analog domain non-idealities and digital compensation techniques to combat these issues.

Successful candidate must have the ability to communicate with engineers of varying backgrounds: software, digital hardware, RF IC design, operations, and marketing.

This position may be located in Irvine, San Diego and/or Santa Clara, CA Job Requirements : Typically requires a BS degree and 12 years of experience, an MS degree and 9 years of experience or a PhD and 6 years of experience in the wireless design field.

Wireless standards: experience in Bluetooth and/or Broadcast FM is required. Experience in WLAN, GPS or NFC is a plus.

General RF/electromagnetic and Signal Processing Experience:
Experience with radio architectures, preferable in CMOS, Cascaded Gain, NF, Linearity (IP3/IP2),Front-end matching networks, phase noise requirements etc.

Digital receiver processing, digital filter design, experience with C, C++, matlab.

Must understand issues related to board level design, grounding, supply decoupling, filtering, spurs sources etc.

Laboratory skills:
Ability to read and program automated test scripts in C/C++, Perl, Python, (LabView and GPIB a plus)
Must have experience Lab equipment,Oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, network analyzer, VSA, temp. chamber.
Ability to collect, plot, and analyze data using excel, matlab, or other means.
