Job Description

We are seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to join our elite Radiation-Hardened (Rad-Hard) IC design team in San Jose. In this role, you will design innovative, high-performance, and highly profitable products specifically targeted toward Space markets.

The ideal candidate has a proven track record of designing Analog and Mixed-Signal ICs for Precision Analog and Power Management applications. You will be at the forefront of creating state-of-the-art, ultra-low quiescent-current 40V to 100V DC-DC switching converters, LDOs, and multifunction power management circuits.

Responsibilities
  • Collaborate on product definition with marketing, applications, and customers.
  • Apply an in-depth understanding of power process technologies (both existing and under development) to design next-generation power management products.
  • Execute transistor-level design of mixed-signal circuits for new and derivative power management products.
  • Lead and manage programs to successfully achieve scheduled project objectives.
  • Validate and debug products prior to transferring them to production engineering.
  • Interface seamlessly with cross-functional process, test, product, application, and marketing teams to bring new products from initial concept through production release.


Qualifications

Required Skills & Experience

  • Thorough knowledge of various switch-mode power-conversion topologies (boost, buck, multiple-phase current sharing, and various control methods).
  • Hands-on experience with Cadence tools for analog design and mixed-signal simulation.
  • Experience with behavioral top-level modeling, mixed-signal verification methodologies, analog/digital interfaces, and digital buses.
  • Demonstrated ability to be highly self-motivated and adaptable in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves)
  • Direct experience with radiation-hardened (Rad-Hard) power management products.
  • Familiarity with gate driver techniques and a solid understanding of control systems.

Education
  • BSEE required (MSEE or PhD preferred) or equivalent industry experience.
