About us

Ericsson is opening a state‑of‑the‑art R&D center in Yokohama focused on Radio and Software development. This new hub will support leading Japanese CSPs, partner with local vendors and deliver Japan‑driven products and solutions that shape networks worldwide. We are establishing and growing the team and building advanced laboratory and office facilities. We are hiring across different experience levels — from early‑career engineers to experienced developers and technical leaders.

The opportunity

We are looking for passionate and driven Radio HW Design Power Amplifier Engineer to join our team.

We are now looking for an Intermediate or Senior Power Amplifier (PA) Designer to join our growing and highly diverse team. In this role, you will develop power amplifiers for Ericsson's future Radio Systems, contributing across the full product lifecycle—from early study to deployed products and after-market support.

Our portfolio spans all relevant power levels and frequency bands used in mobile narrowband and broadband applications. You will work in an environment that values innovation, technical excellence, and collaboration across disciplines and organizations.

As a Power Amplifier (PA) Designer you will develop PAs for Ericsson future Radio Systems. We are working on all horizons: pre-product, product development as well as after-market. The amplifiers cover all applicable power levels and frequencies used for mobile narrow band and broadband applications.

This is an opportunity to develop as a professional in selected areas through work across various areas of pre‑development, product development and aftermarket activities. This is an opportunity to design radio products that will be part of Ericsson's portfolio deployed in Japan and globally and contribute to Ericsson's Technology Leadership.

A HW Integration member in PEU Radio is responsible for making the radio hardware work as a complete system—by integrating boards, modules, software, and test environments, and by verifying that the product meets technical, regulatory, and quality requirements before release.

This opportunity is ideal for engineers who thrive in hands-on environments, enjoy solving complex measurements and verification challenges, and want to grow their careers in an innovative, collaborative, and forward leaning organization. You will be part of global R&D network in chosen area of interest with access to Ericsson's leading technology

You will be directly involved in the development of Ericsson's next generation of radio network products, contributing to both system design understanding and end-to-end performance validation.

If you are motivated by technical depth, problem-solving, and cross-functional teamwork—and you want to be part of a company building the future of radio technology—this is the role for you

Key responsibilities

• Be part of design and development for Ericsson future radio systems, from innovation and research prototypes to product development and field support
• Conduct product relevant simulation, schematic or drawing design, testing, and performance analysis to drive continuous product improvement
• Work hands -on in the lab with top-of-the-line instrumentation
• Integrate radio HW boards, modules, and nodes into a working radio system
• Ensure HW works together with ASICs, FPGAs, RF chains, power, and mechanics
• Support early integration to detect system issues as early as possible
• Securing and optimizing the radio unit's functionality and RF performance to be as good as possible.
• Integrate radio HW modules, boards, and nodes at system level
• Execute and drive HW and system-level verification and troubleshooting
• Support node integration, lab bring-up, and test environment readiness
• Act as a cross-functional technical interface between design, verification, and projects
• Collaborate closely with system architects, software teams, vendors and operators to meet performance, reliability and manufacturability targets
• Investigate and troubleshoot test system issues, driving resolution and improvement activities.
• Share knowledge and mentor junior engineers; participate in cross‑functional teams in an Agile environment

Who we're looking for

We welcome experienced / senior engineers seeking technical leadership opportunities. Typical skills and background include:

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent technical discipline (Bachelor's degree with extensive relevant experience may be considered).
• Strong foundation in radio hardware design with deep technical interest in RF, electronics, power amplifier design, and system integration.
• Thorough understanding of Radio HW and SW architectures and their interaction in modern radio products.
• Solid knowledge of RF and radio fundamentals, including wireless systems, RF measurements, instrument handling, and digital signal analysis.
• In-depth understanding of Power Amplifier (PA) modes, topologies, and architectures.
• Hands-on experience with transistor technologies (e.g., LDMOS, GaN) and collaboration with multiple semiconductor device vendors.
• Practical experience with digital predistortion (DPD) and other PA linearization techniques.

(in addition to the above - Who we're looking for)

• Familiarity with baseband–radio interaction and overall radio product concepts.
• Proficiency in RF measurement techniques and hands-on use of RF laboratory equipment.
• Good programming and scripting skills, particularly in C#, MATLAB, and VEE, to support design, analysis, and verification activities.
• Strong troubleshooting skills with a structured and practical approach to problem solving.
• Knowledge of relevant radio and wireless standards and regulatory requirements (3GPP, ETSI, CE, FCC, Telec).
• Familiarity with 3GPP specifications, such as LTE and NR, including verification and validation needs during product development.
• Understanding of radio product lifecycle, from concept and design to verification and production support.
• Curious, self-driven, and motivated to continuously learn and grow within radio and PA product development.
• Solution-oriented mindset with the ability to innovate and drive technical improvements.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills, enabling effective interaction with development, system, and product engineering teams.
• Team-oriented with a clear focus on collective success and knowledge sharing.
• Comfortable working in Lean and Agile development environments and actively contributing to continuous improvement.
• Result-driven with a service-minded and quality-focused approach.
• Ability to work effectively in English; capability to collaborate in Japanese is a strong advantage.

What we offer

• A central role in the establishment and growth of a new R&D center in Yokohama, with labs and offices designed for cutting‑edge radio development
• Opportunities to work on products that shape national and global digital infrastructure
• A culture that values innovation, collaboration, and speaking up — many career directions and internal mobility
• Hands‑on work with RF instrumentation and modern test automation frameworks
• Competitive compensation and benefits (details discussed during hiring stages)
• Support for professional growth, knowledge exchange, and mentoring
• Meaningful work on global products with local impact in Japan
• Competitive benefits and professional development opportunities
• Collaborative environment with close ties to local vendors and operators
• Clear career paths from individual contributor to technical leadership or management
• Flexible working arrangements and inclusive R&D culture
• Something that Ericsson has and maybe not Japanese companies
