Employment
Here at Linx, we're always on the lookout for talented individuals who share our desire to simplify complex technologies. Take a look, maybe there is a place here for you.
Talented?
Qualified?
Tired of the rat race?
Give yourself and family a whole new
lease on life in beautiful Southern Oregon.
Working here at Linx, you'll enjoy the unique atmosphere of a rapidly growing technology company that's still small enough to have a familiar family atmosphere (how many technology companies have a Ping Pong table?). Your skills and talents will be pushed to new heights and your effort will not go unnoticed.
On weekends, you'll take time out to enjoy life. Maybe you'll find yourself fishing or rafting on the Rogue River, mountain biking, playing golf, shooting skeet, or watching a hometown softball game at the sports park. That's assuming, of course, you're not busy skiing at Mt. Ashland or tied up at the Shakespeare Festival.
If you are qualified for a position listed below and are ready for a change, we would love to hear from you. Please do not call for these positions. Applications will be accepted by mail or e-mail only. Please send your resume, salary history and cover letter to:

Designs range from tiny low-power narrowband RF modules to higher power spread spectrum RF circuits operating in the 260MHz-2.4GHz ranges. Will research and specify components, then create schematics and multi-layered PCB layouts using standard software. Will test and qualify designs, then document and transition them into high-volume production. Will design test fixtures and procedures for production testing of products. Will troubleshoot and pursue corrective actions for any production issues. Will also work on the development of mechanical designs, such as enclosures. Will document all aspects of designs for internal archive as well as instructions for production. Will work with customers on customized products and create custom specifications. Will assist and mentor junior engineers. |

Must have a strong theoretical knowledge of RF theory coupled with a history of successful practical application. Must have experience executing both narrowband and spread spectrum radio architectures. Should be able to research and identify components appropriate to meet design objectives and plan and execute designs to meet engineering targets. Should be familiar with all equipment necessary to prove and test a design. Must have solid understanding of RF such as transmission lines, matching and harmonics. Should understand antenna function and the various requirements thereof. Knowledge of Legal requirements such as FCC part 15.231.247, and 249 will be of benefit. Hands-on skills such as soldering of fine-pitch components, troubleshooting, and characterization measurements are a must. Experience with RF simulation tools and PCB layout tools would be beneficial. Candidate must be technically qualified, self-motivated, and able to interface well in a close-knit, non-competitive team environment. The duties of this position would generally be reflected by a MSEE or PHD with 7+ years of experience; however, industry experience will be considered if it has resulted in an equivalent skill set. |
