Design the Chip That Secures Tomorrow's Connected World /n 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 opportunity. /n About UWB & Why It Matters /n Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is one of the fastest-growing connectivity technologies in the world today: /n /n
- Automotive: Secure keyless entry in BMW, Tesla, BYD — using sub-4ns pulses for precise ranging
/n
- Mobile: Integrated in Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy for proximity and location
/n
- Safety: UWB radar detecting child presence, breathing, and movement inside vehicles
/n
- Security: Advanced encryption + ultra-low duty cycle makes it the most secure short-range radio
/n /n Operating at 7–10 GHz with 500 MHz bandwidth, UWB is redefining wireless connectivity — and TI is at the heart of it. /n About the Role /n 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. /n 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). /n This is a high-ownership, high-visibility lead-level role with one of three specialization tracks: /n Possible Role Tracks /n Track 1 — PLL & Clock System Design /n /n
- Architecture and design of Crystal Oscillators, Integer/Fractional PLLs, and LO Distribution Systems
/n
- Ensure low phase noise, fast lock time, and robust performance across PVT corners
/n
- Design and simulate PLL loop dynamics, VCO, dividers,
and charge pumps
/n /n Track 2 — IF Filter & VGA Design /n /n
- Design of Intermediate Frequency (IF) filters and Variable Gain Amplifiers (VGA)
/n
- Optimize linearity, noise, and bandwidth for the receive chain
/n
- Support calibration modules — AGC, gain, offset, IQMM
/n /n Track 3 — Transmitter (TX) Design /n /n
- Full TX chain design — DAC, baseband filters, up-conversion mixers, and Power Amplifier (PA) stages
/n
- Drive TX pin performance across EVM, output power, spectral mask, and linearity specs
/n
- Support calibration and power management for low-power TX operation
/n /n Key Responsibilities (All Tracks) /n /n
- Lead block-level architecture definition in collaboration with systems team
/n
- Execute concept design, schematic, layout, and extracted simulations (Cadence Virtuoso)
/n
- Perform design verification and silicon bring-up — correlate simulations with silicon measurements
/n
- Support test & characterization with the validation team
/n
- Collaborate with packaging, PCB, and solution design teams for holistic product delivery
/n
- Mentor junior engineers and drive design quality and methodology improvements
/n
- Contribute to patent filings and technical publications
/n /n Minimum Requirements /n /n
- Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electronics/Electrical Engineering or related field
/n
- 3–10 years of hands-on analog/RF IC design experience with demonstrated full design cycle exposure
/n
- Robust proficiency in analog/RF circuit design — LNA, mixers, filters, PLL, PA, or VGA
/n
- Experience with Cadence Virtuoso — schematic, layout, and post-extraction simulation
/n
- Solid understanding of RF system parameters — NF, gain, linearity, phase noise, EVM
/n
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across design and silicon
/n /n Preferred Qualifications /n /n
- Experience in UWB, WLAN/WiFi, or microwave frequency (7–10 GHz) IC design
/n
- Expertise in PLL design — VCO, charge pump, fractional-N, loop filter
/n
- Experience in TX chain design — DAC, upconversion mixer, PA, spectral mask compliance
/n
- Knowledge of calibration techniques — AGC, PDET, IQ mismatch correction
/n
- Familiarity with low-power design and power management (LDO, low-current modes)
/n
- PCB-level understanding for solution and validation board design
/n
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
/n
- Passion for patent authorship and domain leadership
/n /n Why Texas Instruments? /n Growth: Work on UWB — one of the fastest-growing wireless technologies in the world /n Impact: Your IC design will be integrated in automotive, mobile & industrial applications globally /n Culture: Collaborative, technically enriching & innovation-driven RF engineering environment /n Compensation: Attractive compensation package with long-term incentives /n Innovation: Ample opportunities to file patents and become a recognized RF domain leader /n Technology: Holistic design exposure — Silicon, Packaging, PCB & System Solution /n Ready to Lead UWB IC Design at TI Bangalore? /n If you are passionate about analog/RF circuit design, cutting-edge wireless technology, and building the chips that secure and connect the world — we want to hear from you! /n Apply now
