As a Principal Analog/Mixed-Signal Design Engineer at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., you will lead the definition and design of complex CMOS mixed-signal blocks such as data converters, PLLs, and voltage regulators, ensuring they meet system-level requirements through rigorous simulation and verification processes. You will collaborate closely with layout teams to oversee block-level layouts and contribute to design reviews while defining comprehensive verification plans for IP or chip portions. Utilizing advanced tools like Cadence ADE and MATLAB, you will run complex simulations and analyze results to optimize power, performance, and functionality. This role requires extensive experience in analog/mixed-signal IC design, ideally with a focus on specific areas such as VCOs, PLLs, or data converters, along with proficiency in design tools like SPICE, Verilog/VHDL, and MATLAB. You will also provide technical guidance to junior team members and consult with internal stakeholders and vendors to ensure alignment with project goals.
