Job description
Modern RF architectures must be space-saving, energy-efficient, and extremely flexible.
They are increasingly being implemented with very **broadband analog / digital converters** to replace previous analog RF functions such as filters or mixers - or to replicate them digitally.
In this project, **methods and** **measurement systems** are being developed to precisely measure their characteristics and derive suitable RF transceiver models.
**In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:**
+ Setup RF/Mixed-Signal measurement systems for analog/digital converters
+ Develop new measurement procedures for mixed-signal characterization
+ Build classic or ML-based models for RF transceivers
+ Implement scripts in Python or LabVIEW
**Who You Are:**
+ You are passionate about wireless technology and like to learn and work with the latest test and measurement techniques and equipment.
+ You can manage your time well and reach out to mentors with questions to help drive progress and completion of goals and tasks.
+ You work effectively in a group environment, problem-solve, and diagnose technical issues and propose reasonable solutions.
**For this Role, You Will Need:**
+ Ongoing academic studies in Electrical Engineering, Information System Technology, or comparable field of studies (from 4th semester)
+ Basic programming knowledge (e.g., LabVIEW, C/C++, or Python)
+ Basic knowledge in signal processing and RF/wireless communications
+ Good command of spoken and written English and/or German
+ Availability for 4 to 6 months starting in **April 2026**
+ This internship must be a **mandatory** part of your studies
**Preferred Qualifications that Set You Apart:**
+ Experience in the practical use of measurement instruments (e.g., Signal Analyzer, VNA, oscilloscope)
+ Interest in RF / Mixed-Signal measurement systems
+ Analytical thinking and a high degree of initiative
+ Mastery of a broad toolset for programming, debugging and analytics (e.g., Python with Plotly and Pandas, VS Code, Excel)
**Our Offer to You:**
We attach great importance to your development, so we want to make sure that you not only find a challenging job with us, but also a workplace that is supportive and rewarding.
You'll receive structured onboarding as well as dedicated support from professional mentors.
_Practical expertise imparted:_
