RFFE Characterization/Validation Engineer at Qualcomm
RFFE Characterization/Validation Engineer at Qualcomm
As part of my coursework for RF and Microwave Systems Engineering, I have been involved in projects that require 5G, Satellite Transceiver design and evaluating RF parameters like IP3, P1dB, NF, return loss, etc using AWR-VSS tool. I have also accumulated invaluable experience working in the RF/Microwave Laboratory where I designed circuit layouts and performed EM simulations on AWR-AXIEM tool for Microstrip resonators, Power Divider, Directional Coupler, Filters etc. I enjoy being challenged and engaging myself with projects that require me to work outside my comfort zone, as continuing to explore new horizons and expanding my skill set are important to me. I believe my job experiences as the Creative Media Designer at the ArtSci Lab-UTDallas, the Budget and Sponsorship Head at Tedx-MIT and as the Youth Development Student Ambassador at the Dept. of Instrumentation Engineering - MIT have imbibed me with the creative design, logical reasoning, team-working skills and a vigor to expand my skill set that are imperative to excel at this industry.
