Analog/Mixed Signal Design Engineer

Job description

The successful candidate shall possess the capability to design and analyze high speed, high performance analog / mixed signal circuits, including data converters, PLLs, and SERDES, in advanced CMOS FinFET technologies. She or he shall bring the design all the way to production.

Responsibilities

Design, implement, and simulate the functionality and performance of various high-speed analog circuits, including the ADCs and DACs; Create the layout floor plans to optimize the overall performance; Supervise the layout activities and give concise guidelines to layout engineers, need to be hands on in drawing layout if necessary; Exploring the trade-offs of the different topologies and propose the best solution to achieve or exceed the requirements in terms of power/area/linearity/bandwidth, etc.

Develop the analog testing plans and work with the PE/TE teams to characterize the functionality and performance of the products to ensure the quality; Need to support and comply with the team’s design methodologies and release flows.

Qualifications

Mandatory Knowledge/Skills/Abilities

Must be extremely familiar with essential CAD tools, such as Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, Incisive, Calibre, EMX, and Totem EM/IR, etc. Must have a proven tracking record of designing complex analog / mixed signal IPs or chips in deep submicron CMOS technologies. Must have experiences in bringing high performance analog IPs including but not limited to high-speed ADC, high-speed DAC, and high-frequency low-jitter PLL to production.

Must have a decent understanding in CMOS analog / mixed signal design methodologies and circuit analysis; Must have a good understanding of device physics and the impacts of layout effects; Able to perform the behavioral modeling the blocks and circuits with Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS; Collaborative with other local or remote team members in a fast-paced professional environment.

Preferred Knowledge/Skill/Abilities

Fluent in verbal and written communications; Independently resolves issues and conquer design challenges; Self-motivated and detail-oriented; Has the knowledge of (optical) communication theories and Matlab coding.
