The IP Engineer will join a dynamic group to take ownership of analog IP provided by external vendors for mobile devices. The primary responsibility involves ensuring this IP meets high quality standards and integrates flawlessly into products. Day-to-day tasks include defining requirements, driving technical discussions with vendors and foundries, and supervising IP design, characterization, and debug. The role requires reviewing and signing off on design tools, flows, collaterals, and test plans while supporting internal integration teams across front-end design, physical design, DFT, and SIPI. Candidates must possess a BSEE/MSEE and experience in analog IC design, specifically with LDO, ADC, DAC, PLL, Serdes, or filter designs. Technical expertise in advanced CMOS processes, power and area trade-offs, and standards like PCI Express, MIPI, USB, or DisplayPort is required.
