ResponsibilitiesWe are a team of Communications Systems Engineers designing advanced broadband communications SoCs. These chips integrate complete PHY and MAC layers, including broadband RF/analog circuits, digital ASIC, and CPU subsystems, on a single die. They are designed in deep-submicron CMOS processes for use in next-generation wireless, optical, and wireline systems.MaxLinear is seeking a Staff or Senior Staff Communications Systems Engineer to join our experienced team in the Valencia design center. The ideal candidate has a strong understanding of communications system architectures and their end‑to‑end performance. Responsibilities include:- Research, design, verify, and test DSP (digital signal processing) algorithms (e.G., modulators, demodulators, filters, equalizers, channel coding, echo cancellers) for broadband communications SoCs- Design, verify, and test signal‑impairment correction algorithms to improve analog front‑end performance;
work closely with the RFIC and RF systems teams to optimize end‑to‑end system performance- Define, specify, and test hardware/software partitioning for complex DSP, control, and datapath blocks;
collaborate with ASIC design and firmware teams to ensure correct implementation.- Mentor junior engineers through all stages of PHY‑layer development for MaxLinear SoC productsQualifications- Master degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, or a related field;
Ph.D. is a plus- Ability to collaborate across cross‑functional teams, including communications systems, RFIC, ASIC, and software/firmware engineering- Strong analytical skills with a solid mathematical background and foundation in communications theory- Experience with PHY modem architectures and DSP design for communications systems- Proficiency in MATLAB and C/C++;
SystemC and Python are a plus- Comfortable working in a multicultural, collaborative environment with a strong drive for quality and results- Strong written and verbal communication skillsCompensation and Benefits- Competitive Salary Package- Stock‑based compensation- Private Medical Insurance- Life Insurance#J-18808-Ljbffr
