Lead Analog/RF IC Design Engineer – UWB Transceiver | PLL | …, Karnataka

Design the Chip That Secures Tomorrow's Connected World At Texas Instruments , we're building the technology that powers secure ranging, automotive access, and next-gen radar sensing — all through the magic of Ultra-Wideband (UWB). If you're an experienced analog/RF IC design engineer who thrives on full design cycle ownership from architecture to silicon, this is your defining chance. About UWB & Why It Matters Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is one of the fastest-growing connectivity technologies in the world today: Automotive: Secure keyless entry in BMW, Tesla, BYD — using sub-4ns pulses for precise ranging Mobile: Integrated in Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy for proximity and location Safety: UWB radar detecting child presence, breathing, and movement inside vehicles Security: Advanced encryption ultra-low duty cycle makes it the most secure short-range radio Operating at 7–10 GHz with 500 MHz bandwidth , UWB is redefining wireless connectivity — and TI is at the heart of it. About the Role We are looking for a Lead Analog/RF IC Design Engineer to join our UWB Design Group within TI's RF Transceiver & Connectivity division in Bangalore, India. You will experience the full product design lifecycle — from block architecture and concept design through schematic, layout, extracted simulation, and silicon test & verification — for cutting-edge UWB transceiver SoCs (MCU-integrated). This is a high-ownership, high-visibility lead-level role with one of three specialization tracks: Possible Role Tracks Track 1 — PLL & Clock System Design Architecture and design of Crystal Oscillators, Integer/Fractional PLLs, and LO Distribution Systems Ensure low phase noise, fast lock time, and robust performance across PVT corners Design and simulate PLL loop dynamics, VCO, dividers, and charge pumps Track 2 — IF Filter & VGA Design Design of Intermediate Frequency (IF) filters and Variable Gain Amplifiers (VGA) Optimize linearity, noise, and bandwidth for the receive chain Support calibration modules — AGC, gain, offset, IQMM Track 3 — Transmitter (TX) Design Full TX chain design — DAC, baseband filters, up-conversion mixers, and Power Amplifier (PA) stages Drive TX pin performance across EVM, output power, spectral mask, and linearity specs Support calibration and power management for low-power TX operation ️ Key Responsibilities (All Tracks) Lead block-level architecture definition in collaboration with systems team Execute concept design, schematic, layout, and extracted simulations (Cadence Virtuoso) Perform design verification and silicon bring-up — correlate simulations with silicon measurements Support test & characterization with the validation team Collaborate with packaging, PCB, and solution design teams for holistic product delivery Mentor junior engineers and drive design quality and methodology improvements Contribute to patent filings and technical publications Minimum Requirements Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electronics/Electrical Engineering or related field 3–10 years of hands-on analog/RF IC design experience with demonstrated full design cycle exposure Strong proficiency in analog/RF circuit design — LNA, mixers, filters, PLL, PA, or VGA Experience with Cadence Virtuoso — schematic, layout, and post-extraction simulation Solid understanding of RF system parameters — NF, gain, linearity, phase noise, EVM Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across design and silicon Preferred Qualifications Experience in UWB, WLAN/WiFi, or microwave frequency (7–10 GHz) IC design Expertise in PLL design — VCO, charge pump, fractional-N, loop filter Experience in TX chain design — DAC, upconversion mixer, PA, spectral mask compliance Knowledge of calibration techniques — AGC, PDET, IQ mismatch correction Familiarity with low-power design and power management (LDO, low-current modes) PCB-level understanding for solution and validation board design Strong verbal and written communication skills Passion for patent authorship and domain leadership Why Texas Instruments?
