Description

We are seeking a highly skilled RF Connectivity Validation Engineer to validate and optimize wireless performance

across multiple connectivity technologies including Wi-Fi (6/6E/7), Bluetooth (Classic/LE), UWB, and GNSS. The

ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in RF principles and hands-on experience with over-the-air (OTA)

testing, coexistence analysis, and system-level performance debugging. This role will work closely with hardware,

software, and system engineering teams to ensure robust wireless performance in complex product environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Define, plan, and execute comprehensive validation strategies for multi-radio systems, based on system

specifications and product use-cases.

• Develop regression and performance test plans that ensure coverage of critical KPIs such as RSSI, PER,

throughput, latency, roaming, and desense.

• Automate RF test workflows using scripting languages and lab tools to scale validation coverage across

platforms and software builds.

• Conduct characterization and debugging of wireless performance issues using diagnostic tools (e.g.,

spectrum analyzers, sniffer tools, TCP dump, Wireshark, Ellisys, QXDM).

• Monitor and analyze coexistence behavior between multiple wireless systems, and develop strategies to

mitigate interference and optimize performance.

• Drive root-cause analysis of RF-related issues, correlating hardware, firmware, and protocol-level data to

identify and resolve system bottlenecks.

• Work with internal and external teams (HW/SW vendors, CM/JDM/OEM partners) to ensure wireless KPIs

are met across design and production stages.

• Track project progress with clear validation metrics, log management, and documentation to support

readiness for key program milestones and certifications (FCC, CE, PTCRB, etc.).

Required Qualifications:

• Solid understanding of RF fundamentals including impedance matching, antenna behavior, link budgets,

and desense characterization.

• Proven experience validating wireless technologies: Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be), Bluetooth (Classic,

BLE), UWB (IEEE 802.15.4z), and GNSS.

• Proficiency in RF validation tools such as spectrum analyzers, vector signal generators, RF chambers, and

sniffer tools (Wireshark, Frontline, Ellisys).

• Strong scripting and automation skills in Python; familiarity with SQL, MATLAB, or other data analysis tools

is a plus.

• Experience with wireless chipset platforms (e.g., Qualcomm, Broadcom, Mediatek, NXP) and embedded

logging/debugging tools.

• Comfortable working on Linux-based systems and integrating with embedded platforms or Android-based

test devices.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Familiarity with PHY/MAC layers of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and tools to interpret low-level logs (e.g., HCI

traces, TCPDump, chipset-specific debuggers).

• Background in OTA testing environments, including anechoic chambers, shield boxes, and mobile

automation test setups.

• Experience with wireless telemetry, edge AI integrations, or proximity sensing applications using

BLE/UWB/Wi-Fi.
