Power Management IC Designer
About The Position
Navitas Semiconductor is seeking a Power IC Design Engineer to join its Integrated Voltage Regulator (IVR) design team. The engineer will contribute to the design, simulation, verification, and characterization of high-performance power-management ICs and integrated voltage regulators. The role is suited to a recent graduate or early-career engineer with a foundation in analog circuits, semiconductor devices, and power electronics who wants to develop expertise in high-frequency DC-DC converters, power stages, control circuits, and integrated power delivery. The engineer will work with lead IC designers, layout engineers, package engineers, systems engineers, and applications engineers across the product development cycle, from architecture and circuit design through silicon validation.
Requirements
- Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Integrated Circuit Design, or a related discipline.
- Strong transistor-level design expertise in DC-DC converters, gate drivers, and analog power-management circuits.
- Experience with Cadence Virtuoso or equivalent tools.
- Relevant graduate research, IC tape-out experience, internship experience, or university power-management IC projects may substitute for industry experience.
Nice To Haves
- PhD degree with coursework or research in analog, mixed-signal, power-management, or power IC design.
- Experience with IVRs, multiphase converters, buck-boost topologies, LDOs, or server and high-current power-delivery applications.
- Familiarity with Cadence Virtuoso/Spectre or similar IC design tools.
- Exposure to GaN, BCD, or high-voltage CMOS processes.
- Familiarity with SIMPLIS, Python automation, mixed-signal interfaces, digital control, and AI-assisted design methods.
- Experience scaling reusable IP and design processes across multiple products and supporting qualification and industrialization for demanding applications.
Responsibilities
- Design and simulate analog and power-management circuits for integrated DC-DC converters and IVRs.
- Support development of synchronous buck converters, power stages, gate drivers, control loops, protection circuits, and supporting analog blocks.
- Analyze power MOSFET characteristics, including RDS(on), gate charge, switching loss, conduction loss, COSS/QOSS, and device figure of merit.
- Perform schematic-level and post-layout simulations across PVT corners and Monte Carlo conditions.
- Evaluate converter efficiency, transient response, stability, ripple, switching behavior, and power loss.
- Support selection and optimization of power devices in BCD, CMOS, and GaN technologies.
- Support extraction and review of post-layout parasitics and evaluate their impact on circuit performance.
- Assist with silicon bring-up, bench characterization, debugging, and correlation between simulation and measurement.
- Document design calculations, simulation results, design reviews, and characterization results.
- Collaborate with package, systems, applications, and test teams to optimize overall IVR performance.
