Department Overview
About the role
The Motorola Solutions Advanced Development Engineering team, located in Plantation, FL., specializes in the design and development of world class Mission Critical Communications equipment. This team develops RF modems, integrated circuits, and other related circuit modules and subsystems for use in our radio products. We need an innovative and motivated radio device system engineer. As a member of our team you will have opportunities to work on a variety of circuits and system designs. This position is 100% on site Monday thru Friday located in Plantation FL.
Job Description
•
The Radio Device RF System Engineer will work with commercial off-the-shelf ICs, RF components as well as custom CMOS technologies to develop radio transceiver mixed signal sub-systems to be utilized in hi-reliability public safety communications equipment. This position will be one of a team of advanced technologists that will conceive, design and implement radio systems with off-the-shelf semiconductor devices as well as custom mixed signal digital, RF and analog circuits and subsystems using robust design methodologies for deployment in two way radio equipment. The completed transceiver systems are intended for use in Motorola Solutions radio products.
