You will collaborate closely with an exceptional, cross‑functional team to deliver industry‑leading solutions using world‑class design tools.
Requirements
- BSEE or MSEE in Electrical Engineering
- 5+ years of hands‑on experience designing analog and/or mixed‑signal integrated circuits (e.g., amplifiers, PLLs, ADCs, DACs).
- Proficiency with modern ASIC design and verification tools.
- Strong foundation in analog and RF analysis prior to simulation.
- Experience with layout of critical analog/RF cells.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, including technical documentation.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with professionals at all levels of the organization.
- Willingness to travel domestically on a limited basis.
- Strong interest in process technology trends and a commitment to continuous learning and improvement.
- Due to export control restrictions, candidates must be a U.S. Person (U.S. Citizen or Green Card holder).
Nice To Haves
- MSEE or PhD in Electrical Engineering
- 10+ years of experience in analog and/or mixed‑signal IC design.
- Experience designing, modeling, and optimizing phase-locked loop (PLL) architectures, including loop dynamics, phase noise, jitter performance, frequency synthesis, and mixed-signal implementation trade-offs.
- Experience characterizing designs in the lab and correlating silicon results with simulation.
- Experience in design/modeling high-frequency electronic components using 3D electromagnetic (EM) field solver like Ansys HFSS or Cadence EMX.
- Experience working effectively with remote, geographically distributed teams.
- Demonstrated ability to influence architectural and high‑level design decisions.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop key analog and mixed‑signal building blocks for next‑generation ASICs using advanced design tools.
- Perform circuit simulations to optimize performance, robustness, and manufacturability.
- Conduct signal and system‑level analysis beyond the ASIC to ensure end‑to‑end performance.
- Characterize designs and/or develop comprehensive characterization plans.
- Partner with product line architects to evaluate power, cost, and performance trade‑offs at the system level and drive informed design decisions.
- Contribute to technical documentation and design reviews across the development lifecycle.
Benefits
- This position is also eligible for bonus as part of the total compensation package.
