Proven experience in AMS verification for advanced SoCs, including exposure to 12nm nodes or beyond
Solid understanding of cross-domain interactions and multi-voltage/power domains
Hands-on experience with industry-standard tools: Cadence (Virtuoso, Spectre, AMS Designer) Questa ADMS / Symphony HSPICE or equivalent
Experience in silicon debug and correlation of simulation results with silicon behavior
Ability to analyze and interpret chip-level electrical specifications and IO requirements
Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively in a global, cross-functional environment

Nice To Haves

Experience with chiplet architectures or multi-die system integration
Exposure to die-to-die interfaces and advanced node (12nm and beyond) integration challenges
Experience in circuit-level debug and modeling

Responsibilities

Lead/contribute to sub-system and chip-level AMS and SPICE simulations for complex SoCs and multi-die (chiplet) architectures
Drive AMS verification across chiplet boundaries, including cross-node integration (mature analog + 12nm digital)
Collaborate closely with SoC design, architecture, analog, and advanced-node digital implementation teams
Review and understand SoC specifications, IO subsystems, and die-to-die interface requirements
Plan and execute AMS/SPICE simulation strategies, including full-chip and chiplet-level verification
Perform PI/SI simulations covering: Die pad ring, Package and interposer (chiplet-based designs), PCB interfaces (as applicable)
Analyze power integrity and signal integrity across chiplet interfaces and multiple power domains
Develop and enhance AMS and PI/SI methodologies and flows for multi-die/chiplet systems
Partner with validation teams on silicon bring-up, debug, and simulation-to-silicon correlation
