Senior Analog Design Engineer (Teradyne, Agoura Hills, CA))
$119,200 - $190,700 USD yearly
Originally posted 5 August 2026 by the employer. Relisted by the employer on 17 September 2026.
Design low high-speed circuits in mixed-signal ICs for ATE instruments.
About the role
This role involves designing low high-speed circuits in mixed-signal ICs for ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) instruments. The work focuses on FINFET, general CMOS, and BCD technologies.
What you'll do
- Develop detailed circuit specifications for mixed signal circuits. - Conceive circuit architectures and transistor level circuit topologies that satisfy required performance. - Physical implementation (layout) of high speed circuits, either directly or assisting. - Optimize circuits via simulation (with Cadence EDA tools) over all process and operating conditions. - Integrate circuit elements into large analog/mixed signals ASICs. - Participate in the characterization of ASIC circuits.
What you'll need
- MSEE with 5 years of experience or PhD in electrical engineering with 3 years experience in the design and characterization of multiple, high frequency and high scale of integration mixed signal integrated circuits. - Thorough knowledge of high frequency, broad-band Analog Mixed-Signal IC design (electrical and physical design). - Experience in design of VCOs, PLLs, DLLs, ADCs, DACs, clock and data recovery, broadband amplifiers, bias generators, clock distribution networks, high frequency I/Os, high frequency CML designs, high voltage, power circuits. - Solid understanding of CMOS semiconductor device physics and device modeling. - Solid understanding of electromagnetic theory. - Solid understanding of transmission line theory. - Solid understanding of thermal effects of various circuit topologies and different package types. - Involvement in all phases of multiple IC developments from specification to product introduction. - Solid understanding and experience with IC characterization at high frequencies using high speed sampling oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, VNAs, signal sources. - Solid understanding of working with PDKs.
Nice to have
- Experience with Cadence Skill or Ocean scripting for automating test benches. - Proficiency in Verilog or Verilog-A modeling. - Direct experience in FINFET. - Generic experience in deep sub-micron CMOS (nodes < 65 nm). - Experience in BCD technology. - Experience with high voltage and/or mixed voltage domain circuit design. - Experience with ATE test development.
