Internship Ansys Simulation Jobs in Michigan (NOW HIRING)

The Role

Join our Vehicle Software and Electronics Engineering organization as a Wireless RF Design & Validation Engineer, where you will contribute to the development and deployment of wireless connectivity hardware for next-generation vehicles. Working with experienced RF, antenna, hardware, software, mechanical, and systems engineers, you will apply fundamentals in radio frequency circuits, electromagnetics, antenna design, and wireless communications to help deliver reliable cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GNSS, UWB, and other connected-vehicle technologies.

This is an opportunity for a new graduate to build practical experience across RF design, electromagnetic simulation, prototype development, laboratory measurement, and vehicle-level integration. You willparticipatein an iterative engineering process that connects requirements, simulation, hardware, testing, troubleshooting, and design improvement.

WhatYou'llDo

• Assistwith the design, analysis, simulation, prototyping, and validation of RF circuits and antenna subsystems for automotive connectivity modules.

• Develop and evaluate RF circuit designs involving transmission lines, impedance matching, filters, amplifiers, low-noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, switches, couplers, and other RF front-end components under the guidance of senior engineers.

• Create and refine antenna models for embedded and vehicle-integrated wireless systems, considering frequency coverage, bandwidth, impedance match, gain, efficiency, radiation patterns, polarization, coupling, isolation, packaging, and manufacturability.

• Use circuit, system, and electromagnetic simulation tools to perform design trade studies, parametric sweeps, optimization, and simulation-to-test correlation. Tools may include Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS, CST Studio Suite, FEKO, MATLAB/Simulink, SPICE, or equivalent platforms.

• Support RF schematic development,componentselection, PCB layout reviews, and design reviews, with attention to grounding, shielding, isolation, signal integrity, decoupling, return-current paths, and minimizing unwanted coupling or crosstalk.

• Build andmodifyprototypes, fixtures, cables, and RF signal paths; support board bring-up and subsystem integration from the PCB through enclosure and vehicle levels.

• Perform conducted and over-the-air RF measurements using equipment such as vector network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power meters, oscilloscopes, near-field probes, and wireless test systems.

• Execute sensitivity, antenna performance, coexistence, isolation,desense, emissions, and other RF validation activities for cellular, 5G/LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GNSS, UWB, and related technologies.

• Analyze measurement data,identifyperformance trends and failure modes, compare results with simulations and requirements, and recommend design changes oradditionalexperiments.

• Support root-cause investigations for RF issues caused by antennas, PCB layout, processors, memory devices, power converters, displays, clocking circuits, communication interfaces, shielding, grounding, or mechanical integration.

• Develop ormaintainPython, MATLAB, or similar scripts for test automation, data reduction, visualization, calibration checks, and repeatability analysis.

• Develop, execute, and document test plans, procedures, configurations, results, technical recommendations, and lessons learned.

• Support EMC/EMI, FCC, CE, OEM, and other applicable regulatory or pre-compliance activities.

• Collaborate with hardware, RF, antenna, PCB layout, mechanical, software, systems, manufacturing, supplier, and test-partner teams to resolve issues and deliver robust designs.
