JOB TITLE: Analog Mixed Signal/Power Management Design Engineer
The Analog Mixed Signal Design team seeks an engineer to oversee the definition, design, verification, and documentation of various CMOS mixed analog/digital blocks. The successful candidate will determine architecture designs and circuit specifications based on system requirements, managing the full lifecycle from initial simulation to silicon evaluation. Key responsibilities include designing data converters, PLLs, filters, LDOs, Buck/Boost switching regulators, charge pumps, precision references, and audio amplifiers. The role requires proficiency with Cadence ADE, MathWorks MATLAB, SPICE, and Verilog/VHDL. Candidates must possess expertise in nanometer planar CMOS or FinFET technologies to solve complex power management and signal acquisition problems. You will provide technical expertise for new initiatives, including analog design automation, while ensuring all designs meet strict power, performance, and functionality targets.
Define architecture designs and circuit specifications based on system-level requirements.
Design, simulate, and verify CMOS mixed-signal blocks including data converters, PLLs, and regulators.
Oversee block-level layout and silicon evaluation for multiple integrated circuits.
Develop verification plans and run complex power and performance simulations to achieve functionality targets.
Design and run complex tests on bench and ATE data to identify and analyze bugs.
Write detailed technical documentation and design descriptions for complex projects.
Provide technical expertise for new initiatives such as analog design automation.
What we're looking for
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with 5+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal IC design in BCD and nanometer planar CMOS or FinFET and 4+ years of Mixed-Signal IC design, verification, or related work experience.
Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field and 3+ years of Mixed-Signal IC design, verification, or related work experience.
PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field in Mixed-Signal IC design, verification, or related work experience.
3+ years of experience using one or more design tools such as CADENCE, SPICE, MATLAB, and/or Verilog/VHDL.
PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field (preferred).
Experience in analog/mixed-signal integrated CMOS circuit design for specific areas like VCO, PLL, DLL, Audio CODEC, or switching regulators (preferred).
1+ year of work experience in a role requiring interaction with senior leadership (preferred).
