Staff Electrical Engineer - Austin, TX, United States
$114,400 - $220,200 USD yearly
Developing complex analog mixed signal/integrated power management ICs for Industrial Control, Industrial Power, Isolation, and other Infrastructure applications.
About the role
This role involves developing complex analog mixed signal/integrated power management ICs. The position focuses on product roadmaps, definition, technology selection, design, and verification for Industrial Control, Industrial Power, Isolation, and other Infrastructure applications.
What you'll do
- Architect, design, and verify circuits, systems, algorithms to meet product requirements.
- Develop innovative new designs for patenting or protecting as trade secrets.
- Participate and contribute to product definition.
- Oversee custom layout and the work of layout designers.
- Report on design results through design reviews.
- Research design techniques through technical publications and seminars.
What you'll need
- BSEE + 8 years experience, MSEE + 6 years experience, or PhD + 3 years experience.
- Advanced knowledge of MOS transistors and analog circuit design.
- Knowledge of complex AC/DC analysis (poles, zeros, compensation), loop dynamics and feedback systems.
- Advanced knowledge of device physics and CMOS/BiCMOS fabrication processes.
- Previous design experience with complex mixed signal design problems.
- Advanced knowledge in signals, systems and transforms.
- Experience with end to end design flow from product definition to high volume manufacturing including support of production test, applications validation and manufacturing problem solving.
- Advanced understanding of layout tradeoffs for performance and size.
- Experience mentoring junior engineers.
- Strong background in analog signal chain solutions.
- Strong knowledge of circuit simulation tools, layout verification tools, modeling tools, and UNIX.
Nice to have
- Knowledge of high voltage processes and design in BCD and/or SOI type processes.
- Previous design experience with integrated power conversion circuits (DC-DC/Power converters, charge-pumps, LDO's, rectifiers, amplifiers).
- Advanced MOS Device modeling skills (noise, excess thermal noise, DIBL).
- Exceptional laboratory measurement skills.
- System knowledge (e.g., isolators) and advanced design skills in system modeling.
- Understanding of mixed signal solutions including discrete time digital signal processing.
- Familiarity with quality systems documentation and procedures.
