Skip (W13) is hiring talented wireless engineers to help build the next generation RFID platform for retail stores.<p>We are building a proprietary system that is able to read RFID tags several orders of magnitude faster and locate tags 10x more accurately than current technology. Our system will enable automatic checkout for retail stores as well as a host of other in-store functions such as inventory and analytics.<p>As a small team, we’ve been able to set up contracts with several of the world&#x27;s largest retail companies and prototype truly innovative hardware. As our business has grown, we also want to grow our team. We at Skip are looking for a mix of systems, implementation, and hardware engineers to help create the next generation of RFID technologies.<p>Please review the job descriptions below and feel free to reach out to me at spencer(at)skip.it.<p>Systems Engineer:<p>Must have:<p>Good hands-on experience in SDR&#x2F;USRP programming (GNURadio, Verilog, VHDL)<p>Ability to develop and translate wireless and signal processing algorithms to working prototypes in collaboration with our implementation team<p>Simulation: Python (ideally), C++, C, matlab<p>Decent knowledge of Wireless System design including digital signal processing, communication algorithm development (Layer 1, Layer 2 ; PHY&#x2F;MAC)<p>Decent Knowledge&#x2F;Experience in at least one of the technologies:<p>802.11<p>3GPP<p>EPC GEN2<p>ETSI<p>Understanding of RF systems<p>Desired Experience:<p>4+ years of experience in wireless system design<p>Desire to work with a few of the most intelligent, ambitious, humble, and kind individuals in an invention-driven start-up environment<p>Systems and Development Engineer:<p>Must have:<p>Expertise in Wireless Systems including digital signal processing, communication algorithm development (Layer 1, Layer 2 ; PHY&#x2F;MAC)<p>Interference management techniques, MIMO beamforming, radio resource management, scheduling algorithms, channel access mechanisms…<p>Decent background in wireless propagation, e.g. multipath (incl. modeling and simulation)<p>Link and system level simulations (Matlab)<p>Decent Knowledge&#x2F;Experience in at least one of the technologies:<p>802.11<p>3GPP<p>EPC GEN2<p>ETSI<p>Basic&#x2F;good understanding of RF systems<p>Ability to translate wireless and signal processing algorithms to working prototypes in collaboration with the implementation team<p>Simulation: Python (Ideally), C++, C<p>Experience in SDR&#x2F;USRP programming (Verilog, VHDL, GNURadio)<p>Desired Experience:<p>4+ years of experience in wireless system design<p>Desire to work with a few of the most intelligent, ambitious, humble, and kind individuals in an invention-driven start-up environment<p>Hardware&#x2F;Firmware Engineer:<p>Decent experience in SDR platforms; hardware integration, FPGA development<p>Firmware development particularly for wireless systems targeted for RFID systems (EPC GEN2 and&#x2F;or 802.11, cellular, etc)<p>Hands-on hardware platform experience in hardware component integration, e.g. RF and baseband blocks<p>Ability to develop testbed to demonstrate advanced RFID algorithms; identify, integrate and upgrade hardware components in the platform<p>Experience in RF block and antennas, integration with the SDR platform<p>Experience in end-product development from the SDR platform<p>Experience:<p>6+ years of hands on experience<p>Learn more about our checkout product at www.skip.it<p>Best,<p>Spencer Hewett<p>Founder<p>spencer(at)skip.it
