Principal Analog/Mixed Signal Engineer
About The Position
Lead analog and mixed-signal chip design for a team developing a computing approach that uses thermal noise in CMOS for probabilistic sampling. The role helps shape upcoming chip architectures and works across circuit design, systems, physics, and algorithms. It includes designing analog and mixed-signal blocks, owning substantial parts of chip architecture and potentially leading an upcoming chip design, performing hands-on layout and verification, collaborating across teams, and helping test and validate fabricated chips. The position is hybrid in Boston, Massachusetts, with three days per week on-site. Base salary is $200,000 to $325,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
Requirements
- 6 to 20 years of analog and mixed-signal IC design experience, including work on blocks such as PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes.
- CMOS circuit design expertise and multiple completed tape-outs, including experience with FinFET or 28nm/65nm processes.
- An MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering focused on circuits or IC design.
- Proficiency with Cadence simulation, including parasitic extraction, Monte Carlo analysis, and process corners.
- Hands-on layout experience.
- Familiarity with Python and C.
- Experience across multiple circuit types and comfort taking on practical tasks beyond a narrow specialty in a startup environment.
Responsibilities
- Design analog and mixed-signal blocks, including ADCs, PLLs, bandgaps, regulators, SerDes, oscillators, and dividers.
- Own substantial parts of chip architecture and potentially lead the design of an upcoming chip.
- Perform hands-on layout and design verification, including DRC, ERC, and LVS.
- Collaborate with IC, systems, physics, and algorithms teams to translate computing concepts into silicon.
- Help test and validate fabricated chips using lab equipment such as signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
