Senior/Principal Analog & Mixed Signal Design Engineers - San Jose, United States

Originally posted 29 December 2025 by the employer.

About the role

This role involves end-to-end ownership of analog building blocks, from architectural definition through silicon validation, with a focus on high-performance Driver and TIA circuits in BiCMOS and advanced semiconductor nodes.

What you'll do

• Architect and design high-speed analog and mixed-signal circuits, including Transmit drivers, Transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs), receiver front-ends, Clocking and timing circuits (PLLs, DLLs, low-jitter references), Biasing networks, bandgaps, and on-chip power regulation.
• Perform transistor-level design, simulation, and optimization across PVT corners.
• Analyze and optimize bandwidth, noise, linearity, jitter, stability, and power.
• Collaborate with layout engineers on floorplanning, matching, isolation, and parasitic management.
• Define and support silicon bring-up, characterization, and debug, including correlation to simulations.
• Contribute to design methodology, IP reuse, and best practices across programs.

What you'll need

• MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 7+ years of hands-on analog or mixed-signal IC design experience.
• Strong fundamentals in feedback and stability analysis, noise and jitter modeling, high-speed analog circuit design, power integrity, and substrate isolation.
• Experience taking Driver, TIA, or related analog blocks through tape-out and lab validation.
• Proficiency with industry-standard analog design and simulation tools.

Nice to have

• BiCMOS (SiGe) and/or advanced CMOS nodes.
• High-speed data-path or I/O-adjacent analog circuits.
• Experience with process scaling and technology trade-offs.
• Exposure to silicon debug, failure analysis, and yield learning.
