TL;DR · Mixed-Signal Behavioral Modeling Engineer

The Mixed-Signal Behavioral Modeling Engineer joins the mixed-signal silicon design team to build a foundation in full custom analog and high-speed digital circuits while gaining insights into IPs used to interface with the environment around the chip. The role involves translating custom mixed-signal circuit schematics into efficient SystemVerilog behavioral models for high-level simulations, collaborating with circuit design teams to understand details, and working with verification teams to craft hooks for effective testing. Responsibilities include running simulations and formal equivalence tools to ensure model accuracy, coding targeted checks within representative models, and writing scripts in PERL or Python to automate tasks. Required skills include knowledge of digital logic gates, Verilog/SystemVerilog, circuit schematics, SPICE simulations, and basic understanding of analog blocks like amplifiers, ADCs, DACs, and comparators.

What you'll do

  • Translate custom mixed-signal circuit schematics into efficient SystemVerilog behavioral models for high-level simulations.
  • Collaborate with circuit design teams to understand the technical details of custom circuits.
  • Work with verification teams to create hooks for effective testing and validation.
  • Run simulations and formal equivalence tools to ensure model accuracy against original circuits.
  • Code targeted checks within representative models to verify that circuits function as intended.
  • Write scripts and develop simple tools to automate repetitive tasks or perform calculations.

What we're looking for

  • Excellent knowledge of digital logic gates, clocking, and state elements (preferred).
  • Excellent knowledge of Verilog/SystemVerilog with the ability to write behavioral code (preferred).
  • Ability to read custom circuit schematics and understand functionality (preferred).
  • Solid understanding of logic and behavioral simulations (preferred).
  • Basics of passive and active circuit elements, voltage and current sources, and analog blocks like amplifiers, ADCs/DACs, and comparators (preferred).
  • Basics of SPICE circuit simulations (preferred).
  • Basics of timing synchronous digital logic (preferred); familiarity with PERL/Python scripts, PLLs/DLLs/SERDES, DSP, numerical analysis, and probability/statistics (preferred).
  • Bachelor’s degree.
