Morse Micro is at the forefront of next-generation Wi-Fi technology, delivering breakthrough solutions that redefine wireless connectivity. Our creative products are designed to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving market, providing superior performance and reliability. 
Are you an experienced Wi-Fi chip designer with a deep understanding of the IEEE 802.11 PHY Layer? Do you want to play a key role in building next generation Wi-Fi chips that will truly enable the Internet of Things (IoT)? Keen to make a real difference in a VC-backed high-growth company while working in a dynamic & fun environment? Then join Morse Micro, Australia's largest fabless semiconductor company! 
You will be responsible for the design, integration, verification and bring-up of an IEEE 802.11ah PHY to be used in Morse Micro's family of Wi-Fi chips. You'll work with the digital, systems and firmware teams to help architect and verify the PHY and ensure functional and performance goals are achieved. 
You will need to be experienced with digital PHY architecture and DSP design suitable for 802.11 protocols on advanced low-power process nodes. Your day-to-day will involve RTL design and simulation using contemporary languages and tools. You'll work closely with the team to address and improve digital and system aspects of the design. You'll also help with bringup of the PHY on silicon, evaluate performance of pre-production silicon and take your design to high-volume mass production. 
Your responsibilities would include: 
802.11ah PHY development in Scala (Chisel), System Veriliog and C 
Functional verification of 802.11ah PHY in RTL simulators, SDF-annotated gate level simulators and AMS simulators using SystemVerilog, Verilog-A, Matlab, C and Python 
Work closely with the Systems team to achieve the best performance 
Work closely with the Analog & RF to define and improve radio interface 
Work closely with the Firmware team to develop embedded PHY firmware 
Assist with bring-up of silicon in the lab & debug PHY performance 
Provide overall technical expertise and brilliance 
Essential skills 
(you must have): 
BSc/MSc/Phd in Electrical / Electronics / Communication Engineering or Computer Science 
3+ years experience as a PHY IC Design Engineer 
Solid understanding of digital signal processing (DSP), with emphasis on HW implementation 
Proven experience developing multiple DSP blocks of in complex SoCs 
An understanding of the IEEE 802.11 PHY layer and familiarity with 802.11ah 
A deep understanding of digital design fundamentals including low power and multi-clock-domain design
