Analog/Mixed-Signal Design Engineer

Job Description:

Working within the Edinburgh analog/mixed signal design team, this role will involve the architecture, design, and verification of analog and mixed signal IP for precision, low-power, custom analog ICs. The successful candidate will have a wide range of experience in the specification, design, and verification of complex analog blocks in nanometer CMOS technologies. They must be capable of defining, leading, and implementing transistor-level circuit solutions to achieve a variety of challenging noise, distortion, power consumption, and cost requirements.

The key responsibilities for the role include:

1. Design and verification of analog circuits
2. Leadership and ownership of complex analog IP development
3. Technical mentoring and peer review of mixed-signal design and layout
4. Customer presentation of IP designs
5. Documentation and design review presentation to internal and external audiences.

The successful candidate should have:

1. A good Bachelors, Masters, or Doctoral degree in Electronics or a related discipline.
2. A wide range of experience in analog and mixed-signal IC design, preferably in nanometer CMOS technologies.
3. Good verbal and written communication skills and documentation ability.
4. Self-motivated, with strong leadership qualities, and a keen desire to learn and improve designs and methodologies; value good teamwork and have a positive outlook.
5. Experience in one or more of the following technical areas:

1. Embedded power management including in BCD technologies
2. Data converter design.
3. Amplifier (LNAs, OTAs, and PGAs) and line driver design.
4. Low power precision analog design techniques.

• Experience and a good working knowledge in analog and mixed-signal design and debug tools in many of the areas below:

1. Schematic, layout, and simulation flow (e.g. Cadence Virtuoso).
2. Spectre and/or other SPICE circuit simulators.
3. Behavioral modelling of digital and analog circuits.
