Applications Engineer

Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) designs and manufactures semiconductor products and solutions. We enable our customers to interpret the world around us by intelligently bridging the physical and digital worlds with unmatched technologies that sense, measure and connect.

The Organization

ADI’s Wireless products group working on Integrated Transceiver is charged with growing ADI’s already dominant position as a supplier to manufacturers of communications infrastructure equipment.   The team is focused on addressing customer needs and supporting product roll-out globally.

The applications engineer is responsible for providing technical support for the development and implementation of wireless customer applications using RF transceiver products. As part of a cross functional team, the Application Engineer provides support to customers requiring deep knowledge of embedded software systems and RF system fundamentals.

 The successful candidate will be required to:

Understand customer communications as well as test and measurement systems and the embedded code that operate on those systems. Software may be GUI, DLL, API (middleware), or platform hardware layer.  The target system may be Windows PC for GUI and DLL or it could be embedded systems running on FPGAs or other processors for the other layers.

Test and debug transceiver evaluation systems using test equipment and by writing code when appropriate.  Debugging of customer systems will require in-depth knowledge of RF communications and test and measurement systems.  These systems will contain integrated wideband transceivers and any portion of the system may be the cause of the customer problem.

Understand thoroughly silicon features, capabilities from HW and SW point of view. Post silicon debug, silicon/solution support to customer; ability to do grasp customer issues quickly and provide solution
