INTERN-RF Engineer
Located in Malibu, California, HRL has been on the leading edge of technology, conducting pioneering research and advancing the state of the art.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Perform circuit design in silicon and III-V (e.g. GaN) technologies.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES:
Support and assist senior staff scientists and engineers for design, simulation, fabrication, and integration of advanced RF, microwave and millimeter-wave circuits and systems.

Report results to technical staff.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
Must have basic understanding of RF and microwave integrated circuits concepts, such as scattering parameters, input/output impedance matching, noise and power. Familiarity with CAD layout for both PCB and IC (e.g., Cadence, ADS, or MWO) are desirable. Knowledge of large signal measurements and load pull is a plus. Experience with high-frequency circuit/EM simulators such as Cadence, ADS, MWO, HFSS, Sonnet, and CST desired. Experience with standard microwave test equipment, such as spectrum analyzer and vector network analyzer desired.
PHYSICAL/MENTAL DEMANDS:
Proficiency in use of computers, engineering work stations, complex electronic equipment, oral and written communication, interaction with vendors/colleagues.
EDUCATION DESIRED:
Upper level undergraduate or graduate student in Electrical Engineering with hands-on experience in analog and RF electronics
