At Meta Reality Labs, we're developing the future of augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality(MR). As an RF Engineer focused on wireless consumer devices, you will have the opportunity to work on the intricate and complex challenges impacting product design to deliver the state of the art wireless solution.
RF Engineer Responsibilities:
- Design and develop RF connectivity solutions for consumer electronic products
- Responsible for part selection, prototyping, factory bring up and lab bench debug and root cause.
- Review product designs at schematic, board layout, mechanical structure and other design levels.
- Perform RF link budget analysis and debug RF issues in the lab.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and vendors to ensure RF performance are met at component, board and system level.
- Monitor and ensure RF performance metrics are met- EVM, transmit power, and receiver sensitivity-are met or exceeded for connectivity technologies.
- Support EM simulation efforts using tools like HFSS, ADS, and CST Studio to identify and resolve RF performance issues and optimize RF design.
- Domestic/international travel as needed.
