Zusammenfassung

MoleSense is seeking an exceptional Biomedical Mixed-signal IC Designer to own the custom silicon at the heart of our wearable biosensors. Work from architecture to validated ASIC for epidermal applications, targeting the maternity continuum and beyond.

You will collaborate closely with the founding team, moving designs from schematics to silicon and into real-world impact in women's health, in a fast-paced startup environment on Lausanne's Biopôle campus.

Qualifikationen

• Strong background in analog/mixed-signal IC design and low-power circuit design.
• Hands-on experience bringing ASICs from schematic to silicon.
• Experience taping out and characterizing own designs is valued.

Aufgaben

• Design ultra-low-power integrated circuits for wearable biomedical applications
• Develop biomedical signal-acquisition chains (amplifiers, ADCs, DACs)
• Implement switched-capacitor circuits and energy-efficient power management
• Participate in ASIC characterization, validation, and system-level integration
• Collaborate with hardware, firmware, and biochemistry teams to meet system requirements

Jobbeschreibung

Biomedical Mixed-signal IC Designer

About us

We are developing Wear & Forget® wearables for continuous sweat biochemistry monitoring, combining on-demand sweat extraction with aptamer-based biosensing. Based at the Lausanne Biopôle, we are a small, multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers (fewer than 20 FTEs) driven by a shared passion for impact. We thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where creativity, scientific excellence, and rapid iteration are at the core of everything we do.

The role

We're looking for an exceptional analog/mixed-signal IC designer to own the custom silicon at the heart of our wearable biosensors. You'll design ultra-low-power integrated circuits for epidermal biomedical applications - taking designs from architecture and schematic to a validated ASIC and, ultimately, to technology worn by thousands of people in the maternity continuum and beyond.

This is not a support role. You'll work closely with the founding team and see your designs move from schematics to silicon to real-world impact in women's health in record time, embedded in a deep-tech startup where decisions happen fast.

You have a strong background in analog and mixed-signal IC design, with hands-on experience in low-power circuit design and ASIC bring-up. We're especially excited to meet candidates who have taped out and characterized their own designs.

Responsibilities

• Design ultra-low-power integrated circuits for wearable biomedical applications
• Develop biomedical signal-acquisition chains (amplifiers, ADCs, DACs)
• Implement switched-capacitor circuits and energy-efficient power management
• Participate in ASIC characterization, validation, and system-level integration
• Iterate closely with the hardware, firmware, and biochemistry teams to align circuit performance with system requirements

About you

• M.Sc. graduates from leading institutions are preferred - including Imperial, TU Delft, EPFL, ETH Zürich, TUM, and Sharif - though we care far more about what you've built than where you studied
• PhD graduates are considered when backed by a strong track record at top venues (ISSCC, JSSC)
• You bring fast, ruthless execution and the independence to own a technology end-to-end
• You thrive in a demanding, high-ownership environment where you figure things out and move quickly

What we offer

• Ownership from day one, working shoulder-to-shoulder with the founding team
• The chance to take your designs from schematic to silicon to real-world impact - fast
• A competitive salary and a top-notch work location, at EPFL or the Biopôle campus in Lausanne
• Swiss visa and work permit sponsorship for outstanding international candidates
• A fast-moving, highly collaborative team where decisions happen quickly
• Clear opportunities to grow into technical leadership as the company scales
