Experienced Electrical Engineer – RF & Microwave Power Electronics
Starfire is seeking highly motivated persons to join our technical engineering team to support applied R&D across both product groups for RADION™ microwave plasma sources and nGen® & Centurion® particle accelerators. Both groups leverage solid-state RF and microwave power electronics to achieve their aims. We seek candidates with RF/microwave power electronics experience, e.g., high-voltage GaN microwave, component selection, RF circuit design & hardware layout, and BOM generation using to apply knowledge company-wide. Building on your base electrical engineering skill set with solid-state LDMOS, high-voltage GaN/SiC and electronics aptitude building RF drivetrains, we will provide job-specific training unique to our products and technologies. You will enjoy “hands-on” work and being part of an applied science team.
For experienced B.S. candidates, this position is eligible to earn an “on-the-job” Masters of Engineering (M.Eng.) Degree through a professional program between Starfire and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Plasma Engineering or Electrical Engineering. If eligible and meeting requirements, Starfire will reimburse tuition costs for the M.Eng. while working 75% full time over a two-year period. The M.Eng. capstone project will be directly relevant to work at Starfire.
