The future starts here Ready to join NXP?
Become part of a dynamic team at NXP Eindhoven, working at the intersection of analog/RF circuit design and artificial intelligence. Your project will directly impact the accuracy and reliability of next-generation RF integrated circuits by developing advanced calibration methods for on-chip Peak Power Detectors (PPD) using machine learning.

Your Team

You will join the mmWave Competence Center, a group dedicated to architecting, designing, developing state-of-the-art mmWave transceivers and enabling next-Gen automotive Radar. You will be supported by mentors with experience in both circuit design and AI/ML.

Your Responsibilities

• Analyze the PPD circuit and identify additional measurable metrics (beyond current parameters) that influence swing accuracy.
• Design and propose methods to extract or measure these metrics in silicon or simulation.
• Develop and validate machine learning models (e.g., neural networks) to improve swing estimation accuracy, using simulation and/or measurement data.
• Benchmark your approach against existing calibration methods and document improvements.
• Prepare thorough technical documentation and present your findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Whats in it for you

• A unique opportunity to work on a real-world, high-impact project at the frontier of AI and analog/RF IC design.
• Develop both your technical and soft skills in a multinational, diverse environment.
• Gain experience with state-of-the-art tools and methodologies in both circuit simulation and machine learning.
• Possibility to become part of NXPs Young Professional Talent Pool.
• Working on real assignments which contribute to NXPs objectives.

Your Profile

• Master of Science - last year of engineer school, machine learning domain with analog IC design knowledge or affinity with analog design.
• Strong interest and coursework in both analog/RF circuit design and AI/ML (e.g., neural networks, data-driven modeling).
• Familiarity with data analysis, machine learning libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
• Experience with circuit simulation tools (e.g., Cadence) and programming languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB).
• Good level of English is required (attendance to meetings/presentations with international team, reading and writing of documentation).
• Proactive, analytical, and eager to learn.

Duration

This is a full-time internship (40 hours per week) with a duration of 6 months or longer. The assignment could also be suitable as a thesis/graduation project. Please note that in order to be considered for an internship/working student assignment, you need to be registered as a student during the entire period.
