Scientist - Microacoustic resonators design (all genders) // Job-ID: 114-1

Your future responsibilities

As part of our growth and new project acquisition we would like to strengthen our design engineer teams. We are looking for a micro acoustic structural modelling and simulation design engineer who will be responsible for the development of new resonators structure and filter design.

The recruited candidate will have the following responsibilities:

• Resonator design and modelling of new microstructures. 2D and 3D Multiphysics simulations of resonators (COMSOL or equivalent software)
• Experience in design of resonator-based filters (ladder filters, CRF)
• Design of SAW/BAW filters prototypes
• Analytical modelling of BAW resonators (BVD model, Transfer Matrix, Mason equivalent circuit)
• Coupling-Of-Modes (COM) analysis of SAW resonators
• Good understanding of microfabrication constrains for the development of next generation of acoustic wave resonators for RF MEMS Filters application was well as SAW sensors
• Characterization of resonators and filters
• Extraction of resonators parameters and comparison to models.
• Writing of the invention disclosures leading to patents of new solutions to solve the current technical challenges in next generation of RF MEMS Filters and SAW sensors

Your profile

• PhD in design and modelling in acoustic wave resonators with strong theoretical and analytical background
• Good understanding of the current challenges in the design and modelling of next generation of RF filters for 5 G applications
• Good knowledge of piezoelectric and electrostatic MEMS transducers
• Excellent oral & written English skills
• Familiarity with project managing desirable
