Electrical Engineer - Design Engineer
Job Type Full-timeDescriptionQRC Technologies, A Parsons Company, is actively recruiting a driven Electrical Engineer (EE) with a concentration in Radio Frequency (RF) or Software Defined Radio (SDR).
We are expanding our hardware design and require professionals with a passion for delivering products that make the world a better and safer place.
QRC has retained that small company feel and collaborative team-winning mentality within the much larger ecosystem of our parent company.
We are looking for you to join us as we build the future of RF Technology.
If you enjoy PCB design and layout, come join our team.
If you enjoy high speed data transmission circuits (PCIe, 10GigE, etc.
), come join our team.
If you love RF technologies and front ends, come join our team.
Electrical Engineers work with several groups at QRC, including the product development team consisting of multiple hardware and software engineering disciplines, production, and test engineering colleagues to accelerate our next-generation products.
The Electrical Engineers will work with several groups at QRC, including the product development teams consisting of multiple hardware and software engineering disciplines, production, and test engineering colleagues to accelerate our next-generation products.
You would support these products teams with either new creations or design options to sustain current product lines.
These positions require you to exercise your RF engineering prowess to the maximum extent.
Come push your boundaries of what is possible with us.
You will be immersed in a creative environment where you will have the engineering freedom to optimize your designs with the latest the market can offer or with the tried and true.
While we may have a set of mature Design for Manufacturing processes, we are always looking for new and innovative ideas on how best to meet our customers' needs within their time constraints while still being able to afford awesome holiday parties.
We like working here.
So, come join our team where our labs are equipped with support and test equipment from the best suppliers.
We are an Altium shop, so you are assured of being able to use the best design tools.
Our teams collaborate across many functional areas which means every day is an enjoyable day to come to the lab.
The only stressors we tolerate are the fun ones associated with the challenges that come with pushing the cutting edge of innovation out a little further.
RequirementsRF EE Design Engineering Requirements:
Candidate must have 7 years (preferably 10) of design experience in RF/Microwave products and supporting electronics, and broad knowledge of RF systems, understanding of RF concepts such as receiver sensitivity, dynamic range, noise figure, phase noise, and transmitter linearity and power measurements Must have an in-depth understanding of appropriate RF circuit board materials and knowledge of RF and other electrical circuit layout techniques Must have an understanding of EMC design guidelines for PCBs and systems Must have an understanding of RF filter designs including LC, ceramic, SAW, BAW, crystal, etc.
Must be able to devolve a set of system specifications that from our user's requirements to include measurable specifications like SNR, Gain, IMD, etc.
Must have knowledge of DAC and ADC specifications Must be able to identify parts or sub-components from the commercial market that meet our system requirements Must be able to assist software engineers to develop register settings for loading synthesizers, DACs, ADCs, etc.
, to insure proper operation.
Examples like calculating the proper register settings for PLL loop dynamics, AGC functions, output power, etc.
Must have a good working knowledge of clock systems and how to control jitter, phase noise, etc.
Must have good working knowledge of high-speed data transmission standards such as PCIe, 10GigE, HDMI, etc, and the ability to accurately consider impedance matching, trace characteristics, attenuation, and other factors in PCB design that impact transmission speeds Must have an in-depth understanding of appropriate PCB materials and knowledge of circuit layout techniques, should have at least 5 years of PCB layout experience on actual customer-facing shipped products In-depth experience with Altium Designer over the last two years is strongly desired, including detailed knowledge about the software, its limitations, and its features Candidate should be proficient in PCB part placement, footprints, Gerber files, maintaining part libraries, and designing for ease of manufacturing and test Direct experience routing high-speed digital signals (PCIe, USB, Gigabit, LVDS, clocks) and low-speed digital signals (RS-232, I2C, SPI), analog signal and power, and RF signals (up to 6 GHz) is required Experience routing both single-ended and differential pairs is required Candidate should be able to optimize designs for PCBs and flex circuits for density, cost, thermal issues, and other factors Should have an understanding of EMC design guidelines for PCBs and systems Must have strong written and interpersonal communication skills Must be able to work independently or within a team and produce measurable results Must have experience using engineering analysis and development tools such as LabVIEW and MATLAB Should have technical experience in the areas of signal processing, signal analysis, direction finding, geolocation, embedded systems, antennas, or communications systems Candidates must be a US citizen and eligible to obtain a security clearance when sponsored by QRC BS in Electrical Engineering or similar work experience (Master's Degree Preferred) Recommended Skills Antenna Design Engineering Electronics Embedded Computer Geolocation Hardware Design Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
