About the role
This role involves designing high-speed, high-performance, and low-power mixed-signal IPs for Qualcomm's products. The focus will be on mixed-signal IPs such as SerDes, DDR, PLL, DAC, ADC, and sensors.
What you'll do
- Work in the analog design team for schematic capture and simulations.
- Participate in architecture definition and analog/digital design partitioning.
- Perform schematic capture and simulations using the Cadence Virtuoso tool suite.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including layout and digital teams.
- Work with the testing team for silicon bringup and debugging.
What you'll need
- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
- Demonstrated interest in analog circuit design through coursework or work experience.
- Experience with ASIC design tools such as Cadence Virtuoso.
- 2+ years of experience with analog or mixed-signal integrated circuit design in nanometer planar CMOS or FinFET.
- 2+ years of experience using one or more design tools (e.g., CADENCE, SPICE, MATLAB, and/or Verilog/VHDL).
Nice to have
- Several years of industry experience in analog integrated circuit/system design.
- Experience as a high speed analog designer of mixed-signal IPs, such as CTLE, CDR, PLL RXAFE, PLL, DAC, ADC.
- Familiarity with Matlab and Python.
- Good understanding of architecture, system, and integration aspects for mixed-signal.
- Good understanding of design for yield and production challenges with high speed serial links.
- Good understanding of Signals and Systems.
- Sampled Domain signal processing experience.
