Our Sat Connect IC business unit, a division of our Satellite Systems business is a leading provider of ASICs, software, multibeam electronically steered antennas, and complete systems for communication satellites, as well as ground and airborne terminals. Located in Israel, the UK, Bulgaria, and the US, we are a technology leader in satellite communication.

We are seeking a highly skilled High-Speed Serdes Analog Design Engineer to join our advanced mixed-signal quality assurance team.

In this role, you will be responsible for reviewing the end-to-end design, development, and productization of high-speed analog SerDes IPs

You will work closely with the analog team, Analog IP vendors, system team, digital engineers, HW engineers and validation engineers from architecture and feasibility studies, through circuit design and simulation, silicon validation, and production release ensuring the IP meets stringent signal integrity, jitter, and power requirements.

• Proven track record in designing and delivering high-speed SerDes IP (multi-gigabit per second links)
• Hands-on experience from concept definition through design, simulation, silicon validation, and production release
• Strong knowledge of analog and mixed-signal circuit design techniques for high-speed I/O, including PLLs, CDRs, equalizers, and drivers
• Proficiency in transistor-level design and simulation using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, HSPICE)
