Job summary

PowerLattice Technologies Inc is seeking a Senior/Staff Analog IC Designer to join our engineering team. You’ll design high-quality analog and mixed-signal ICs, from initial spec through post-layout verification and silicon validation, collaborating with layout, verification, and silicon teams to ensure robust, production-ready designs.

The role requires 5+ years of analog design experience, a strong CMOS foundation, and proficiency with Cadence.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related field
• 5+ years of hands-on analog design experience
• Strong foundation in analog circuit theory, device physics, and CMOS technologies
• Experience designing common analog blocks such as bandgaps, LDOs, oscillators, op-amps, ADCs, and DACs
• Proven ability to carry designs from specification through schematic, simulation, layout guidance, and post-layout verification
• Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence)
• Solid experience with DC, AC, transient, noise, and corner simulations
• Working knowledge of reliability, mismatch, and layout-dependent effects
• Hands-on laboratory experience, including silicon bring-up, bench characterization, and debugging of analog/mixed-signal ICs

Responsibilities

• Design and develop core analog and mixed-signal circuit blocks, including bandgap references, oscillators, LDOs, op-amps, ADCs, and DACs
• Translate system and block-level specifications into robust circuit architectures and implementations
• Perform schematic capture, simulation, and optimization to meet performance, power, area, and reliability targets
• Provide layout guidance and collaborate closely with layout engineers to ensure design intent is met
• Perform post-layout (PEX) simulations and correlations with pre-layout analysis
• Participate in design reviews and contribute to clear, thorough design documentation
• Support silicon bring-up, block-level evaluation, characterization, and debugging
• Apply best practices for analog design, verification, and sign-off
