Job Description

Semiconductors sit at the center of nearly every major investment theme in the market today; AI infrastructure, the data center buildout, electrification of the automobile, industrial automation, and the reshoring of chip manufacturing. This is a rare seat at the table: joining a top-ranked, high-visibility Equity Research franchise that covers the companies building the physical foundation of the AI economy. We are looking for a Senior Analyst to join our Semiconductor Equity Research team, with a primary focus on Analog & Power. You will take ownership of the models, shape the industry views, and deliver the research that institutional investors rely on to make multi-billion dollar allocation decisions. This is a role for someone who wants their analysis to move markets, not just describe them. Wedbush Securities is one of the largest securities firms and investment banks in the nation. We provide innovative financial solutions through our Wealth Management, Capital Markets, Futures and Advanced Clearing & Prime Services divisions. Headquartered in Los Angeles, California with over 100 offices and more than 80 correspondent offices, our commitment to providing relentless, customized service is the foundation of our consistent growth. Whether you are a research or banking professional with an established track record covering analog and power semiconductors, or an industry veteran ready to trade the fab floor or product roadmap for the trading floor, this role offers a genuine path to becoming a name institutional investors trust with real ownership from day one.

Why Wedbush

• Analyze the semiconductor and hardware companies driving AI, electrification, industrial automation, automotive, and next-generation technologies
• Work with seasoned professionals who are recognized thought leaders in technology research
• Gain visibility with institutional investors and corporate management teams

What You Will Do

As a senior contributor to our semiconductors/hardware research team, you will own critical analysis that shapes institutional investment strategies:

• Own and maintain detailed earnings and valuation models across the analog and power semiconductor universe, including power management, discrete/power devices, mixed-signal, and general-purpose analog
• Analyze industry trends: content growth, pricing, end-demand cycles, and secular drivers such as EV/xEV power electronics, grid infrastructure, industrial electrification, and translate them into differentiated, actionable investment conclusions
• Produce weekly and monthly written research publications read by institutional investors and internal trading desks, with direct authorship and accountability for the views published
• Develop marketing materials and represent the team's views directly to clients and institutional salespeople
• Build and maintain direct relationships with company management teams and industry contacts, giving you an insider's view of the sector
• Directly communicate stock views and industry themes to institutional investors, trading desks, and other internal constituencies, with full visibility and ownership commensurate with seniority
• Mentor junior team members and contribute to the overall research process and coverage strategy
• Perform other tasks and duties as required and assigned

Experience And Skills

• Bachelor's degree from an accredited university; advanced degree (MBA, MS) or CFA a plus
• 5-10+ years of relevant industry experience, preferably in networking or optical hardware, with a demonstrated track record covering the sector from either the sell-side, buy-side, or industry
• Deep understanding of the analog and power semiconductor landscape, along with an established network of customers, peers, and suppliers you can draw on to identify industry trends ahead of consensus
• Active FINRA Series 86 and 87 licenses required
• Strong written and verbal communication abilities, with experience publishing research and presenting directly to institutional audiences
• High fluency in accounting and financial statement analysis
• Superior financial modeling skills with demonstrated self‑auditing discipline
• Proven capacity to maintain accuracy in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment
• Self-starter who excels both independently and collaboratively, with the ability to own a coverage area and prioritize effectively with minimal direction
• Solid work ethic, positive attitude, and genuine passion for technology and markets
