Analog & Mixed-Signal Design
Originally posted 23 April 2026 by the employer — open 140 days.
About the role
This role involves analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design, from system-level specification analysis to analog block design and silicon evaluation.
What you'll do
- Analyze top-level system specifications and optimize system design.
- Define specifications for and support analog block design through production.
- Perform design and optimization, verification, and technical documentation.
- Supervise layout and conduct silicon lab evaluation, characterization, and debug.
- Develop block or system modeling.
- Provide technical support to test, product, and application engineers.
- Interface with digital, firmware, verification, layout, and cross-functional teams.
What you'll need
- 4+ years' experience in analog CMOS integrated circuit design.
- M.S. in EE or higher.
- Solid understanding and experience in designing transistor-level CMOS analog and mixed-signal blocks and systems, including IC technology and layout.
- Experience with blocks such as ADCs, DACs, sensor interfaces, switched-capacitor blocks, power management, LDO regulators, bandgap, biasing circuits, amplifiers, oscillators, PLLs, comparators, filters, physical IOs.
- In-depth knowledge of analog mixed-signal concepts, techniques, and trade-offs like speed, power, noise, mismatch, linearity, stability, area.
- Strong knowledge of IC design CAD tools including schematic entry, Spice and mixed-mode simulation tools.
- Experience with lab instruments (e.g. oscilloscopes, supplies, meters) and associated measurement methods.
- Knowledge of system-level aspects: signal processing, mixed-signal, digital, modeling, test, and application.
Nice to have
- Experience with high-resolution, low-power ADC architectures, design, and techniques.
- Experience with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre/AFS, Siemens Symphony, Matlab, Verilog/VHDL.
- Experience with analog/mixed-signal behavioral model development/verification.
- Experience with consumer and/or ITA market circuit developments.
Skills: analog CMOS, mixed-signal, ADCs, DACs, power management, CMOS integrated circuit design
