This is a fantastic opportunity for an RF IC Design Engineer with one of the world’s tech leaders, based in Cambridge.
Our client is building the next generation of highly integrated wireless silicon, pushing the boundaries of RF performance, power efficiency and system integration. Their chips enable everything from smartphones and IoT devices to next-generation connectivity, and they’re looking for talented RF IC Designers to help define what's next.
Here you’ll be working as part of an experienced RF IC Design team, developing the specification, architecture, circuit design, implementation, and verification of challenging Analog and RF circuit blocks and subsystems for 6G RF ICs. The role emphasizes innovative signal path and synthesizer design, targeting industry-leading performance and successful first-silicon silicon validation.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
