Ingénieur principal en analogique/ Principal Engineer - Analog Design - Canada - Montreal, Canada
Originally posted 5 August 2026 by the employer — open 36 days.
About the role
This role involves the design, simulation, and validation of analog integrated circuits (ICs) for mixed-signal SoC products. The team develops critical IP blocks, including multi-GHz PLL circuits, high-speed digital circuits, MEMS drivers, and high-speed performance I/O pads for timing products.
What you'll do
- Work with analog design leads and architects to design specific analog IP blocks.
- Simulate analog circuits across process corners and operating conditions.
- Develop models of design blocks for inclusion in top-level mixed-signal simulations.
- Perform block-level validation of silicon process devices.
- Conduct system-level laboratory evaluation.
What you'll need
- Master's degree or PhD in electrical engineering.
- Minimum 5 years of direct experience working on analog and mixed-signal circuits.
- High-speed and analog circuit design experience including ADCs, DACs, Filters, PLLs, DLLs, and high-speed I/Os.
- Strong fundamentals in circuit theory, design, and layout.
- Hands-on experience in scripting and automation using skill language, python, Perl, and tcl.
- Strong knowledge in Cadence IC design flow and tools.
- Strong knowledge in Verilog-A for analog behavioral modeling and simulation.
Nice to have
- Expertise in the system design of mixed signal circuits.
Skills: analog integrated circuits, mixed-signal SoC, multi-GHz PLL, high-speed I/Os, ADCs, DACs
