Senior Principal Mixed Signal Power Design Architect

Lead power delivery architecture on FinFET processes for AI processors and data centers.

About the role

As a Senior Principal Mixed Signal Power Design Architect, you will architect, design, and optimize advanced power delivery systems from concept to production. The role focuses on high-frequency and high-density power converters on FinFET processes for AI processors and data center applications.

What you'll do

• Own top-level architecture, design, verification, and schedule while driving the design flow to maintain execution timelines.
• Define system requirements and translate them into block-level specifications across analog and digital domains.
• Design IPs, apply digital design and real number modeling, and guide the engineering team through technical challenges.
• Supervise top-level IC floorplan and layout development.
• Drive IC evaluation including initial bring-up, detailed bench characterization, debugging, and design fixes.
• Support test development and qualification plans to transition products into mass production.

What you'll need

• MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering with 15+ years of experience in Power IC design.
• Proven experience as a chip or project lead across at least 2 projects directing teams of 5+ members.
• Demonstrated track record in leading mixed-signal power IC design projects from initial concept through mass production.
• Switching converters design experience, including power stage and controller architecture.
• Transistor circuit design background in areas such as bandgap, precision voltage/current references, variable gain amplifiers, continuous time filters, PLLs (analog, hybrid, digital), ADCs (Flash, SAR, sigma-delta), voltage regulators, temperature sensors, I/O blocks, DACs, or sense and protection circuits.
• Strong knowledge of device physics, deep sub-micron processes, and FinFET processes.
• Proficiency in Cadence design and verification tools.
