Work on optoelectronic transceivers and complex sensor ASICs.
About the role
This role involves senior research and development projects for optoelectronic transceivers and complex sensor ASICs.
What you'll do
- Develop new integrated mixed-signal ASICs and their functional blocks.
- Take responsibility for the complete schematic and layout of the ASIC.
- Define ASIC specifications, perform chip characterization, validation, and test development.
- Specify and implement dedicated IC blocks and digital or analog interfaces for effective wafer or module-level testing.
What you'll need
- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics and Photonics, Telecommunications, or Embedded Systems with several years of experience.
- Expertise in analog circuit design at schematic and layout levels.
- Knowledge of ASIC simulation and verification methods.
- Expertise in optical detectors, particularly integrated optical detectors.
- Expertise in all steps of a complete analog mixed-signal ASIC design cycle, including architecture definition, schematic development, layout design, and integration of analog and digital blocks.
- In-depth knowledge of modern analog integrated circuit design and its techniques and tools.
- Knowledge of advanced simulation techniques.
- English communication skills, both verbal and written.
Nice to have
- Knowledge of digital design and layout (front-end and back-end).
- Knowledge in Design for Testability (DFT).
- Experience in applying measurement equipment up to 10GHz.
- Experience in measurement setups, PCB design and testing.
- In-depth expertise in the semiconductor physics of integrated optical detectors like SiPMs, APDs and PIN photodiodes.
