Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Designer – High-Speed Optics

NcodiN; Oregon; Hybrid; USD 150,000 - 230,000; Full time

Job summary

NcodiN is redefining AI computing with a breakthrough optical interposer. We seek an Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer to architect, design, and productize high-speed electro-optical interconnects in CMOS/SIGe processes.

You will collaborate across photonics, systems, and manufacturing to enable scalable optical I/O platforms. Join a fast-moving startup environment, own architecture-to-silicon execution, and contribute to next-generation optical transceivers with a focus on ultra-low-power

Qualifications

• S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering with focus on high-speed analog/mixed-signal ICs or electro-optical ICs
• 3+ years post-Ph.D. or 5+ years MS in relevant field for industry experience

Responsibilities

• Design, simulate, and model high-speed analog/mixed-signal circuits for optical transceiver front-ends (TIA, CTLE, drivers, PLLs, PVT sensors, DAC/ADC, bias circuits)
• Collaborate with photonics engineers to derive system-level specifications for electrical ICs
• Partition functions between analog, digital, and photonic domains with system architects
• Perform IC floor-planning, layout guidance, and parasitic modeling for high-speed paths
• Model package parasitics and co-optimize electrical/optical performance for co-packaged optics
• Evaluate, characterize, and debug electrical and optical building blocks in lab environments
• Support automated test setups and production test/reliability validation of EIC/PIC components
