NC - Greensboro (HQ), US
Qorvo’s Internship Program is designed for college students currently enrolled in an accredited Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD program. Qorvo offers real work experience, exposure to upper management, and the opportunity to pursue full time opportunities, as available.
Qorvo’s Internship Program offers:
- Challenging, skill-building assignments
- Mentoring and coaching from industry experts
- Lunch & Learns and other learning opportunities
- Collaborative team-based work environment
- Networking and social events
- Final presentation to business leaders
Qorvo’s Module Design Engineering Internships are offered in our High Performance Analog, Advanced Cellular, and Connectivity and Sensors business groups. Specific projects and responsibilities will be determined based on the business needs at the time of the internship assignment.
Responsibilities may include:
- Contributing to the design of multiple functional blocks including Power amplifier, LNA, switch or acoustic filters
- Meeting performance requirements while also considering size, cost, footprint, and schedule
- Producing designs with increasing complexity from customer demands for LTE, carrier aggregation, multiple antennas, filters, and power management
- Adapting to new customer requirements for ruggedness, ESD, and quality
- Working as a member of a team to contribute design schematics, simulations, and real lab data
- Working with signal generators, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, and power meters to compare simulated data to real lab data
- Taking customer specifications/block diagrams and floorplan/optimize module solution that meets size, performance, packaging, and footprint requirements
- Working as a member of a cross-function team to integrate functional blocks (Power Amplifiers, LNA, acoustic filters, SOI switches) into module environment
- Building complex HFSS models of modules (substrate, PA die, filter die, SOI die, SMDs) to capture coupling paths and module shielding effects
- Running FMS (full module simulations) across all functional states to identify compliance issues and provide solutions to improve margin to specifications
- Supporting model vs. measured studies of module blocks (SOI die, PA, filters)
Qualifications:
- Currently pursuing a BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering
- Minimum GPA of 3.0
- Analog/RF circuit design coursework and/or experience
- Exposure to RF measurement equipment such as spectrum analyzers and network analyzers preferred
- Software/Coding Exposure: ADS, AWR, FEM, HFSS, Momentum, Cadence, Dynamic Link preferred
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint)
- Self-starter with strong written and verbal communication skills to convey complex technical information
- Effective organization skills for systematic planning and scheduling
- Detail oriented to ensure design and delivery of high yielding products
- Ability to enjoy working in fast paced work environment
