Principal Analog Design Engineer

Elevate SemiconductorSan Diego, CA
$175,000 - $240,000

About The Position

As a Principal Analog Design Engineer at Elevate Semiconductor, you will provide technical leadership while remaining deeply hands-on in architecture and circuit design. You will lead the development of next-generation ATE instrumentation solutions, with a focus on high-voltage analog, precision design, and digitally assisted architectures. Working across design, layout, and production test, you will take complex products from concept through silicon and into production. This is a highly visible role where your technical expertise and leadership will directly influence product performance, execution, and future technology direction.

Requirements

  • Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field
  • 20+ years of analog/mixed-signal IC design experience with a Master’s degree, or 15+ years with a PhD
  • Proven track record of successful silicon and leading complex analog ASICs from architecture through verification
  • Deep expertise in high-voltage, precision analog, and mixed-signal IC design
  • Experience with circuits such as ADCs, DACs, PLLs/DLLs, regulators, amplifiers, and interfaces
  • Experience leading and mentoring senior analog design engineers
  • Strong understanding of digitally assisted analog design and behavioral modeling
  • Experience working across layout, digital, and production test teams
  • Strong technical leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills

Responsibilities

  • Lead the architecture and hands-on design of advanced ATE instrumentation ICs, including high-voltage analog, precision references, and high-speed pin electronics
  • Own designs from concept and modeling through tapeout, validation, and production release
  • Design and guide development of key building blocks, including DACs, high-current output drivers, high-speed transmitters and receivers, and instrumentation amplifiers
  • Develop high-performance solutions optimized for noise, linearity, power, and silicon area
  • Apply digitally assisted analog techniques and develop behavioral/system models using Octave and Verilog-A
  • Collaborate with layout, digital/VLSI, packaging, test, product, and operations teams to drive successful silicon and production readiness
  • Mentor analog designers and provide technical leadership through design reviews and complex problem solving
  • Drive design methodologies and best practices across multiple projects to improve execution, reuse, and product quality

Benefits

  • In addition to base salary, employees may be eligible for incentive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package.
