About the Client:

Our client is a global leader in advanced wireless and optical communication technologies. Their Milan-based R&D center focuses on pioneering research in millimeter-wave (mmWave) and optical communication systems, including E/W/D-band RFICs, free-space optical (FSO) systems, active phased arrays, and optical front-end ICs like TIAs and drivers.

The team works on cutting-edge semiconductor designs, contributing to both internal innovation and industry standards, aiming to power the next generation of high-speed data and communication systems, including 6G, optical transceivers, and phased-array architectures.

Job Summary

The client is seeking a skilled Analog RFIC Design Engineer to join their international R&D team in Milan. The ideal candidate will have strong experience in designing analog and RF integrated circuits for optical and high-frequency communication systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and optimize high-performance analog and RFIC blocks (e.g., TIAs, drivers, amplifiers).
• Analyze system requirements and define circuit-level specifications in collaboration with system engineers.
• Conduct schematic design, simulation, and layout support through to physical implementation.
• Evaluate trade-offs between performance, area, and power for different circuit solutions.
• Support lab validation and silicon debugging of prototypes.
• Share design practices and technical insights with the global team.

Required Qualifications

• Master's degree in electrical/Electronic Engineering or related; PhD preferred.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in analog/RFIC circuit design, preferably in optical or mmWave systems.
• Proven expertise with Cadence tools and modern CMOS/SiGe BiCMOS technologies.
• Solid knowledge of high-frequency analog design techniques (low-noise, high-speed, lowpower).
• Tape-out and production experience in complex IC projects.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work in multicultural, multi-disciplinary teams.
• Fluent in English; willing to travel internationally as needed.
