Overview
We are looking for a Principal Analog Designer to further strengthen our R&D team. As a first assignment you will be focused on enabling external customers to design in our technologies through a reusable analog IP library to expand our foundry business.
Responsibilities
Expand and maintain the full catalog of analog and mixed signal IPs (ADCs, DACs, amplifiers, oscillators, PLLs, LDOs, PORs, sensors, IO/ESD, memories, etc.)
Provide complete models, verification data, simulation test benches, documentation, and IP revision/history tracking
Execute and supervises block-level and top-level layout activities to ensure optimum circuit performance
Power User level knowledge of SPICE/Spectre testbench creation and simulations, including: PVT, Monte Carlo, mixed signal, modelling, optimization
Highly creative problem solver, able to generate innovative, new next-generation IP and file patents
Generation of detailed relevant documentation, including: architectural/concept reviews, design gate reviews, internal design documents, test requirements, etc.
Maintain structured bug tracking, root cause analysis and customer notification flows
Facilitate also internal reuse by ensuring IPs are robust, documented, and straightforward to integrate into product designs by our broad R&D organization
Qualifications
Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering with 8 years of experience or PhD with 5 years of experience, with an emphasis in analog/mixed signal Integrated Circuit Design
Experience with technical leadership in mixed signal IC Design, block level specifications, simulation, modelling, optimizing layout for performance, etc
“Expert level” transistor-level design knowledge and experience of standard analog building blocks, including Bandgap references, current references, OPAMP, LDO, ADCs, charge pumps
Excellent co
