TL;DR · Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer

The Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer joins a growing group responsible for handling challenging high-speed memory interface designs. In this role, you will perform mixed-signal and analog circuit builds for high-speed memory I/O interfaces, navigating the complexities of circuit development in deep submicron CMOS FinFET processes. You will lead designs through all stages of productization while collaborating with multi-functional teams to optimize performance. Key requirements include experience with LPDDR, DDR, GDDR, HBM, or SerDes designs, along with expertise in system-level timing budgets and device reliability. You will utilize Cadence custom design tools and simulators like Hspice, XA, FineSim, and Spectre. The work focuses on solving technical challenges in high-speed memory interfaces within deep submicron CMOS FinFET processes to ensure robust circuit implementation.

What you'll do

  • Design mixed-signal and analog circuits for high-speed memory I/O interfaces.
  • Develop circuits using deep submicron CMOS FinFET processes.
  • Manage designs through all stages of the productization process.
  • Optimize designs in coordination with multi-functional teams.
  • Perform system-level timing budgets, specifications, and analysis.
  • Lead layout development while ensuring compliance with ESD, Latch-Up, and reliability rules.
  • Utilize Cadence custom design tools and various circuit simulators like Hspice and Spectre.

What we're looking for

  • BSEE, MSEE, or equivalent experience.
  • 8+ years of high-speed memory (LPDDR, DDR, GDDR, HBM) or SerDes related design experience.
  • Experience with system-level timing budgets, specifications, and analysis.
  • In-depth understanding of deep submicron CMOS FinFET process and circuit design issues.
  • Familiarity with device reliability, ESD, and Latch-Up requirements.
  • Broad circuit design and implementation knowledge with significant depth.
  • Strong background in Cadence custom design tools and simulators like Hspice, XA, FineSim, and Spectre.
  • Working knowledge of package substrate, board design, and power delivery (preferred); Verilog, Nanotime, and Matlab (preferred).
