Radar System Engineer
Teradar is pioneering a new era in perception with the world's first automotive terahertz vision sensor, delivering ultra-high resolution imaging in any weather condition. Founded in Boston, Teradar's solid-state, chip-scale technology unlocks safer, smarter vehicles and opens the door to transformative applications in mobility, defense, and beyond.You'll work cross-functionally with IC design, antenna/array, signal processing, PCB, packaging, and software teams to support system integration, testing, and characterization of internally developed mmWave ICs. You'll also play a key role in improving performance, measurement techniques, and scaling system testing.Most days will involve hands-on debugging and OTA testing of chips and subsystems; others will focus on developing new calibration and test methods and driving implementation logistics. Your work will be central to the technical success and scale-up of the company's next-gen radar platform.Location: Seaport, Boston MAResponsibilitiesPerform system integration and bring up new versions of the radar systemDevelop and implement new measurement and calibration methods for the radar systemDevelop processes and automation for characterizing a high volume of systems across process and temperature corners.Solve or participate in solving customer facing system capability improvementsManage hardware responsibilities for phased array characterization and analog beamformingDebug issues with system performance.Characterize chipsets over the air using VNAs, spectrum analyzers and frequency extender modulesNice-to-HavesAdvanced experience with phased array radarsExperience working at a start-up or high-growth oriented companyEager to learn new material, especially related to RF test methods as well as RF system design and integration.Experience doing over the characterization of antennas and beamforming networksSystem and device level understanding of amplifiers, mixers, phase shifters and other RF components.Experience using VNAs, spectrum analyzers and other high frequency lab equipment.Strong attention to detail, project/time management, and organizational skills
