About The Position

This position is part of a highly skilled multi-geographical team tasked with the development of high speed analog, mixed signal, and custom digital 5nm and 3nm CMOS circuits that comprise our leading-edge high speed interfaces such as HBM and UCIe, PLLs, and general mixed signal IP such as ADCs and DACs. This key differentiating IP is used in the Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, HPC and Hyper-Scale Data Center markets. Commitment to team success, customer satisfaction, first time right quality, and ease of use is critical.

Requirements

• The position requires extensive experience with designing high-speed custom analog and digital circuits for SerDes IP.
• The candidate should be extremely familiar with the use of the Cadence Virtuoso tool suite to design and verify high-speed custom circuits, including Virtuoso schematic capture and layout Spectre circuit simulator Virtuoso Analog Design Environment (ADE) – Explorer, Assembler, etc.
• Design experience in advanced CMOS nodes is required; FinFET design experience is a plus.
• The ideal candidate will have wide-ranging experience, with a demonstrated ability to rely on both thorough understanding of engineering fundamentals and design creativity to solve circuit design problems.
