They will be work closely with both US and APAC engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Work seamlessly as a member of Skyworks’ Device Development Group to advance BAW/SAW and other MEMs technologies.

• Advance data acquisition techniques and methods of analysis.

• Analyze data from advanced metrology systems including acoustic vibrometers and thermal imagers.

• Propose new ways to characterize, analyze, and find the limits of state-of-the-art MEMs devices including SAW and BAW devices.

• Construct circuit and FEM models in collaboration with other device modeling and circuit design engineers.

• Analyze on-wafer device statistics of key device parameters.

Key outcomes that are desired:

• Accelerate BAW/SAW roadmap for next generation size, performance and cost.

• Good at multitasking.

• Geared toward being a team player contributing to a seamless interface between BAW/SAW development teams in the US and Asia.
