Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:) is a global semiconductor leader that bridges the physical and digital worlds to enable breakthroughs at the Intelligent Edge. ADI combines analog, digital, and software technologies into solutions that help drive advancements in digitized factories, mobility, and digital healthcare, combat climate change, and reliably connect humans and the world. With revenue of more than $9 billion in FY24 and approximately 24,000 people globally, ADI ensures today's innovators stay Ahead of What's Possible. Learn more atand onand.

Overview

There is currently an open position for an Electronic Systems Design Engineer in the Joint Development Team (JDT) of Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI). The successful candidate will contribute to new technological developments which will help Analog Devices remain a global leader in the design and manufacture of analog, mixed signal, and DSP integrated circuits which are part of solving the toughest engineering challenges. The position will be a hybrid of home/office-based work in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The Group

The Joint Development Team is a small, independent, cross-disciplinary group working within the Data Center & Energy division of Analog Devices, Inc. Its charter is to accelerate the development of key components, systems, algorithms and techniques necessary to advance the state of the art in targeted areas within these market segments and to collaborate with focused product development teams to get these advances to the marketplace. Past, current and future research areas include energy metering & fault detection, advanced medical devices, imaging, security electronics, ultra-precision references and data converters.

The group is led by ADI Fellow Jed Hurwitz, a pioneer in CMOS imaging, recognized expert in ultra-high precision and energy systems, and of broad industrial experience. The group culture aims to foster a challenging, exciting, and supportive environment.

The team members must be comfortable working on a wide variety of products and technologies in a fast-paced and agile environment and will be exposed to various groups across the corporation’s many sites through all stages of the development cycle.

Responsibilities and Opportunities

The successful applicant will be based in Edinburgh, Scotland, and be responsible for:

• Evaluation of newly developed ICs within the context of their applications
• The design of demonstration systems that are tailored to customer needs
• Data gathering and processing to make conclusions on the performance of ICs
• Design of wider systems for demonstrating the use of ADI’s sensors and ICs
• Reporting on discoveries which may be of interest to others in the company
• Interaction with customers and associated travel
• Mentoring interns and newly graduated engineers

Requirements

• Electrical or electronic engineering degree and 3-5 years of experience. This could be further education or industrial experience.
• Experience in:System level circuit design including simulation using a tool such as LTspicePCB design including applications requiring advanced layout principles for maintaining integrity when signals are sensitive or high speedPC-based programming (e.g. Python or C) with good software engineering principles including version controlFPGA programming including state machine design in a language such as Verilog
• Experience in the following areas is seen as an advantageGraphical programming systems such as LabVIEW for data acquisition, instrument control and automationUsing statistics to analyze large datasets with an appreciation of how the certainty of the statistics could be limitedAnalog IC design and simulation experience using a tool such as CadenceApplications knowledge in relevant product areas
• Work well on a multi-site team in a flexible and dynamic work environment
• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Autonomous & self-motivated
• Ability to develop new skills quickly with an appropriate level of curiosity
