About Joseph Bebe Manga Lobe
Senior RF Hardware Engineer (PhD) with 10+ years specializing in SAW/BAW acoustic filters, RFFE front-end integration, and system-level RF design for 4G/5G mobile and wearables. I bridge device-level acoustics with system KPIs—NF, linearity, coexistence, ACLR, EVM, and blocker resilience—to deliver high-performance, mass-production-ready FEMs.My background spans:• Acoustic filters (SAW/TF-SAW/BAW)• PAMiD/RFFE FEM integration• Laminate/MCM hardware design (4-7 layers)• Simulation-to-measurement correlation• Ruggedness, compression, and power-durability analysis• Coexistence & de-sense mitigation• 5G RF validation & characterizationAt Qualcomm, I contributed to multiplegenerations of high-volume PAMiD platforms, collaborating with systems, silicon, packaging, validation, NPI, and reliability teams to translate system requirements into robust hardware implementations. I mentor junior engineers and lead cross-functional technical reviews.Earlier experience includes SAW R&D at TDK and semiconductor/laser-diode research at Thales Lab), culminating in a PhD focused on optoelectronics and quantum-well semiconductor devices.My value add: I combine device physics, RF hardware, and system engineering—allowing me to understand entire signal chains, anticipate integration risks early, and drive designs from concept to validation and high-volume production. I am also expanding into IoT, NTN/Satcom, mixed-signal systems, and end-to-end RF architecture to broaden my impact.
