TL;DR · Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer

The Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer joins a dynamic group to define, design, develop, and take analog and mixed-signal circuits and sub-systems to production within integrated circuit devices. The role involves specifying and verifying transistor-level circuits, mixed-signal interfaces, and digital control or signal processing blocks. Key responsibilities include running high-level simulations, creating integration guides, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive designs into production. Candidates must utilize C, MATLAB, Verilog, and Python, while applying expertise in ADC/DAC architectures, band-gaps, TIAs, op-amps, and LDOs. The work focuses on high-precision circuit design amidst large device mismatch and high supply noise, specifically for sensing and measurement within digital-intensive SoCs. The position requires solving complex technical challenges related to feedback, compensation, chopping, and real-time adaptive algorithms.

What you'll do

  • Design and develop analog and mixed-signal circuits and sub-systems for integrated circuit devices.
  • Implement and verify transistor-level analog circuits, mixed-signal interfaces, and digital control blocks.
  • Run high-level simulations to validate top-level integration of new circuits and sub-systems.
  • Define production and bench-top test plans and analyze results to drive Design of Experiments (DOEs).
  • Create integration guides and user documentation for complex SoC implementations.
  • Develop and optimize building block circuits such as band-gaps, TIAs, op-amps, and ADCs.
  • Apply precision design techniques including feedback, compensation, chopping, and real-time adaptive algorithms.
  • Collaborate with production test engineers to debug sources of parametric yield loss and optimize testing.

What we're looking for

  • BS degree in a technical discipline.
  • Minimum 10 years of relevant experience.
  • Experience conceptualizing, designing, and taking analog and mixed-signal circuits to production for sensing and measurement (preferred).
  • Expertise in high-precision circuit design with large device mismatch and high supply noise (preferred).
  • Deep knowledge of device physics as it applies to semiconductor devices and manufacturing technology (preferred).
  • Solid understanding of ADC/DAC architectures, performance metrics, and design trade-offs (preferred).
  • Experience with building block circuits like band-gaps, TIAs, op-amps, and LDOs (preferred).
  • Experience in C, MATLAB, Verilog modeling, and Python programming (preferred).
