Associates
degree or higher in electronics, or 3-5 years of experience in hands on RF test
and measurement.
Experience
in RF test and measurement methodology and equipment in the 600MHz to 6GHz
frequency range.
Experience
with spectrum analyzers, signal generators, network analyzers, cellular call
boxes, load pull tuners, oscilloscopes, DC power supplies.
Experience
running long characterization efforts on RF components or systems using fully
automated test setups.
Scripting
