About the role
This role involves designing and developing key analog and mixed-signal IP blocks. You will perform transistor-level schematic design, simulation, and verification using industry-standard EDA tools.
What you'll do
- Design and develop analog and mixed-signal IP blocks such as amplifiers, comparators, data converters, bandgap references, regulators, and monitoring circuits.
- Perform transistor-level schematic design, simulation, and verification using industry-standard EDA tools.
- Analyze circuit performance across PVT conditions including corner simulations, Monte Carlo mismatch analysis, noise, and reliability.
- Collaborate with layout engineers to ensure parasitic-aware design and performance closure.
- Participate in silicon bring-up, validation, and debugging activities.
- Generate documentation for design specifications, simulations, and validation results.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering or related field with 10-15 years of experience in analog or mixed-signal IC design.
- Solid understanding of analog design fundamentals: device operation, biasing, gain, bandwidth, stability, compensation, noise, mismatch, and process variation.
- Experience with transistor-level design and simulation in CMOS technologies.
- Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools (Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre).
- Ability to run and analyze simulations across PVT and variability conditions.
- Strong analytical and debugging skills.
Nice to have
- Basic scripting skills (Python, MATLAB).
- Experience designing one or more analog blocks from spec to simulation.
- Exposure to silicon validation and lab debugging.
- Familiarity with layout concepts and parasitic effects.
- Experience with low-power design techniques.
- Exposure to advanced nodes such as Bulk CMOS, FDSOI, or FinFET.
- Experience contributing to tape out or silicon-proven designs.
