For many applications, there is an ongoing need to make use of higher frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum, which require technological innovations both for development of new products and for testing these products. Therefore, NXP Germany is engaging in the German part of the EU R&D program “important project of common European interest” (IPCEI) for microelectronics. As part of this program, NXP has built up a brand-new competence center for high‑frequency technologies: the Terahertz Lab. The lab supports both innovation and development activities for next‑generation RF systems used in automotive radar, robotics, and future communication technologies.You’ll join a hands‑on engineering innovation environment where we conceptualize, simulate, and characterize advanced mmWave and sub‑THz systems (100 GHz and above) using state‑of‑the‑art high-end equipment. TasksPerform and analyze RF measurementsDevelop and perform PHY-level simulationsDevelop pre- and post-processing for RF measurementsPerform electro-magnetic (EM) simulations for passive components Develop system-level simulation models for active and passive lab componentsDevelop automated test routines for RF measurement setupsCreate (automated) reports for measurement resultsDevelop remote control of measurement equipmentContribute to the NXP-wide lab automation libraryDevelop automated storage of measurement dataWork closely with lab engineers to improve RF measurement setups, lab automation, and reporting RequirementsStudent of electrical engineering, preferably with focus on RF technologiesExperience in working with Python or MATLAB, preferably in the scope of electrical engineering and signal processingExperience with RF measurements and equipment (oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzer, power sources, etc.)Experience with EM- and system-level simulation software, preferably Ansys HFSS and PathWave SystemVueExcellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail and good analytical skillsStructured, well organized, self-motivated, and flexibleTeam player with good communication skills, fluent English (spoken and written)What NXP OffersAn attractive hourly wage of €18.9030 vacation days per yearFlexible working hoursThe possibility to work in a hybrid setupNetworking initiatives and Employee Resource Groups such as Young Community, No Extra Planet, NXP Equal, Women in NXP, and more — fostering both professional and personal exchangeJob location: Hamburg (on-site)Working time: max. 18 hrs/weekPlease note:The successful candidate may/will be responsible for security related tasks.The assignment may/will be in scope of security certifications, therefore a conscious and reliable way of working is necessary.
