Job description

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Analog Integrated Circuit Designer to join our growing semiconductor design team. In this role, you will assist in the modeling, design, transistor-level schematic capture, simulation, and physical layout of precision high-performance analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for integration into ASIC or SOC devices or for stand-alone analog/mixed-signal products.

You will work closely with product marketing, senior design, layout, applications, and test engineers to bring silicon products from concept through tape-out, validation and product release.

• Design basic analog and mixed-signal building blocks (e.g., amplifiers, comparators, bandgap references, LDOs voltage regulators, data converters, or PLLs) using industry-standard EDA tools
• Perform rigorous circuit simulations (DC, AC, transient, noise, Monte Carlo) to verify performance across process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) corners
• Collaborate with layout engineers or perform custom IC layout, ensuring proper matching, shielding, and parasitic minimization (DRC/LVS verification)
• Create and maintain behavioral models (using Verilog-A/AMS, MATLAB / Simulink) for system-level modeling and mixed-signal simulation
• Assist in defining test plans, characterizing physical silicon in the lab using oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers, and debugging performance discrepancies
• Participate in design reviews, and create detailed design reviews and validation reports
• Requires:BS/MS/PhD, Electrical Engineering and at least five (5+) years of analog/mixed-signal integrated circuit design experience
• Solid understanding of analog design fundamentals, including device physics. Proficient in custom digital circuit design principles. Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Hands-on experience with industry standard EDA tools like Cadence Virtuoso, Siemens AFS / Symphony Pro, Synopsys PrimeSim, Verilog-A, MATLAB/SCILAB
• Experience with standard lab bench equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, spectrum analyzers)
