Full Job Description
Job Description:
We are seeking a highly experienced, skilled, and hands-on IC Analog Design Engineer to lead development of key analog and mixed signal blocks for our next generation edge computing SoCs. This position requires a strong background in CMOS design from initial system architecture to post-silicon lab bench analysis. Leadership responsibilities include participation in a cross-functional team to actively drive silicon quality throughout the product development cycle. The candidate must be a team player, self-motivated, possess good communication skills, and able to work in a fast-paced environment across international sites.
Requirements/Qualifications:
Key Responsibilities:
• Architect and design performance critical analog and mixed signal blocks including DACs and ADCs.
• Own schematic design and simulation at the IP and system level to meet performance, area, power, and reliability targets.
• Supervise circuit layout through close collaboration with layout engineers on floor planning, device matching, routing, shielding, and ESD strategies.
• Work with system design team to translate top-level product requirements into detailed block-level budgets and circuit specifications.
• Supervise validation and debug as needed, including lab bring up, bench measurement, correlation to simulations, and root-cause analysis of silicon issues.
• Collaborate with foundry technology team to ensure proper use of PDKs and models, focusing on device reliability constraints.
Job Requirements:
• 12+ years experience designing high speed and analog circuits including DACs, ADCs, bandgaps, high accuracy bias blocks, and comparators.
• Broad experience in the development of both sigma-delta and SAR based ADC architectures.
• Proficiency with industry-standard design tools, including Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, and Matlab.
• Hands-on experience with lab testing and debug of analog blocks.
• Hands-on experience in scripting and automation (Skill, Python, Tcl, etc.)
• Strong fundamentals with respect to circuit theory, design, and layout including noise, linearity, device non-idealities, parasitics, and on-chip matching networks.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Well organized, methodical, and detail oriented.
• Excellent verbal communication, documentation, and presentation skills.
• Self-motivated team player who can work with various cross-functional groups across different sites.
• BSEE minimum, MSEE+ preferred from an accredited engineering school.
