About the role

Oversees definition, design, verification, and documentation for the development of CMOS mixed analog/digital blocks, determining architecture design and circuit specifications from system-level requirements. Technical scope includes data converters, low drop out linear voltage regulators, Buck/Boost switching regulators, charge pumps, and precision references in BCD, nanometer planar CMOS, or FinFET technologies.

What you'll do

  • Define architecture and circuit specifications based on system-level requirements across system definition, circuit design, and simulation.
  • Oversee block-level layout of multiple analog and mixed-signal blocks in collaboration with layout teams.
  • Define verification plans, execute complex power and performance simulations using tools such as Cadence ADE and MathWorks MATLAB, and analyze designs against targets.
  • Design, program, and execute bench and ATE evaluation tests, reviewing data to identify and resolve silicon issues.
  • Author technical documentation and design descriptions for complex projects to guide users and customers.
  • Provide technical expertise for new initiatives, including analog design automation.

What you'll need

  • Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering with 5 years of experience in analog or mixed-signal integrated circuit design in BCD and nanometer planar CMOS or FinFET, and 4 years of Mixed-Signal IC design, verification, or related work experience (or Master's degree with 3 years of experience, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field).
  • 3 years of experience using design tools such as CADENCE, SPICE, MATLAB, and/or Verilog/VHDL.
  • Direct design and verification experience across CMOS mixed analog/digital blocks including Buck/Boost switching regulators, low drop out linear voltage regulators, data converters, PLLs, or charge pumps.

Nice to have

  • PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field.
  • Experience in analog/mixed-signal integrated CMOS circuit design for VCO, PLL, and DLL design, Audio CODEC and Class D Audio amplifier design, data converters, high dynamic range linear amplifiers, high output power Buck/Boost switching regulators, or charge pumps.
  • 1 year of work experience in a role requiring interaction with senior leadership (Director and above).

Skills: buck/boost, LDO, data converters, Cadence ADE, CMOS, FinFET
