Radio Integration Lead

About The Job At Nordic Semiconductor we are looking for a Radio Integration Lead to own how our short-range radio IP gets designed into Nordic products. Our radio IP is reused across many SoCs and generations, and every integration brings its own mix of floorplan, supply, clocking, interference and verification challenges. This role makes sure those integrations go right the first time. You will be the technical bridge between the radio IP team and the product design groups that consume the IP. That means being the person design teams come to with integration questions, setting the methodology for how integration is done and verified, and turning hard-won project experience into methodologies, guidelines, and documentation that scale beyond a single chip. You will work across RF and analog design, digital implementation, verification, systems and validation. This is a technical leadership role. You will lead through expertise, methodology and cross-team influence rather than formal line management, while acting as the go-to authority on radio IP integration within Nordic. Key Responsibilities As Radio Integration Lead you own how radio IP is delivered into and integrated within Nordic products. Your responsibilities include:

• Support integration of the radio IP into Nordic products — work alongside product design teams from early planning through tape-out, resolving integration issues on floorplan, supplies, clocking, interfaces, isolation and interference
• Define and drive the integration and verification methodology — establish how integrations are planned, executed, checked and signed off, and improve the flows, checklists and automation that make that repeatable across projects
• Own the integration documentation and tools — define what the IP deliverables and integration guidelines must contain, drive their development and maintenance, and hold them to a quality standard that lets design teams work independently
• Coordinate support to the design groups using the radio IP — triage and route incoming questions, prioritise across projects, and make sure issues are answered, tracked and closed with the right people involved
• Participate in review of test results — assess verification and silicon measurement data from integrated products, judge whether the radio meets expectations in context, and drive root-cause work when it does not
• Keep integration status and risk visible — provide clear, honest reporting to project and product stakeholders, and escalate early when an integration is heading off track

Key Qualifications

• Bachelor, MSc or PhD in Electronics, Telecommunications, Physics or equivalent — or equivalent practical experience
• Several years of experience with IC design or integration, including hands-on work on RF/analog IP or mixed-signal SoCs
• Practical knowledge of integration-critical topics: power supply and regulation, clocking and reference distribution, substrate and supply noise coupling, isolation, ESD and floorplan constraints
• Familiarity with mixed-signal implementation and verification flows, and with the deliverables an IP hand-off consists of
• Proven ability to lead technical work across teams and to communicate clearly with both engineers and management
• Structured approach to documentation and process, and the discipline to keep it current
• Good written and verbal communication skills in English

Personal Skills We are looking for a structured and pragmatic colleague who enjoys being the person others come to when something does not add up. You are comfortable holding a quality line while making sensible calls under schedule pressure, you are patient enough to write things down properly, and you would rather fix the underlying cause instead of fixing issues over and over again. You build good working relationships across teams, share what you know, and see improving how the organisation works as part of the job. Working for Nordic Working at Nordic, you will be inspired and supported to develop yourself. Our teams enjoy a professional and informal working environment. We value and encourage the continuous development of skills and expertise to the highest levels. We are proud of our Norwegian heritage, our highly skilled international workforce, and our world-leading innovation. We offer a variety of tasks and projects, and the possibility to work alongside some of the world’s most renowned experts within their field. We encourage our employees to question the established and innovate while expecting professionalism, commitment, and the will to learn. Benefits

• Competitive salary with short- and long-term incentive plan
• Flexible working hours
• Medical insurance
• Family-friendly policies, insurances, and benefits

• Location: Trondheim, Norway | Oslo, Norway
• Travel: Occasional travel to Nordic sites and partners
