About The Position

This role focuses on the architecture and design of analog circuits, particularly for next-generation optical transceivers. The engineer will be involved in various stages of the design process, from concept to silicon implementation and support, utilizing advanced CMOS design and verification flows.

Requirements

• Master’s degree and/or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related fields with 5+ years of experience.
• Experience in advance cmos design and verification flows (tools to evaluate self-heating, electromigration, safe operating area)
• Experience with analog design and verification tools (Virtuoso, Spectre, ADE, and post layout extraction tools) is a must
• Knowledge of the fundamentals on electromagnetism, lump models, and high-frequency design
• Should have strong analog design fundamentals and experience in designing analog circuit blocks for broadband amplification, clock generation and distribution, and/or fundamental analog blocks.
• Strong communication and documentation skills

Nice To Haves

• Experience with electromagnetic simulation tools (EMX, Momentum, HFSS or other) is a plus
• Good understanding of analog layouts in FinFET and its effect on high-speed designs is a plus

Responsibilities

• Clock generation and distribution (VCOs, PLL, clock distribution, etc)
• Design of custom passive components, from concept to silicon implementation
• Fundamental analog blocks (bandgap references, LDOs, temp sensors, etc)
• High-speed analog circuit design, such as high-speed broadband amplifiers (VGA, CTLE, DRV, etc.)
• New techniques for the development of next generation optical transceiver
• Silicon bring-up, debug and support
• Supervise analog layouts within advanced process nodes
• System verification and circuit design spec creation
• Team communication and documentation
