Analog & Mixed-Signal Design
About the role
This role involves the behavioral modelling and verification of complex, high-performance integrated circuits, with a primary focus on custom analog, mixed-signal, and/or high-speed digital blocks.
What you'll do
- Develop test plans for mixed-signal blocks.
- Develop behavioral models using SystemVerilog-RNM for mixed-signal components.
- Develop model vs schematic comparison using Cadence or Synopsys tool flows.
- Verify and sign-off on mixed-signal RNM models.
- Support SoC verification team in integrating critical mixed-signal IP into the full chip digital environment.
- Maintain these models through the product lifecycle.
What you'll need
- 10+ years of hands-on analog/mixed signal verification experience with successful tapeouts.
- 5+ years in SerDes verification.
- Understanding of high-speed design AMS verification.
- Deep knowledge of UVM, SystemVerilog-RNM, and Verilog-AMS.
- Advanced command of Cadence Virtuoso/Spectre/Xcelium or Synopsys VCS/FineSim.
- Proficiency with Cadence and Synopsys AMS tools.
Nice to have
- Familiarity with high-speed analog/mixed-signal SerDes components.
- Experience with integration between custom AMS and digital components.
- Mastery of SystemVerilog-RNM (wreal, EEnet types) and Verilog-AMS.
- Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python and SKILL.
- Proficiency with advanced mixed-signal toolchains, including Cadence Spectre/Xcelium (AMS Designer) or Synopsys VCS/FineSim, alongside optical simulation tools (Ansys Lumerical, Synopsys OptoCompiler).
- Familiarity with UVM.
- Knowledge of Silicon Photonics.
Skills: mixed signal verification, SerDes, SystemVerilog-RNM, Verilog-AMS, Cadence Virtuoso
