Design and implement analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits that power cutting-edge electronic systems. In this role, you will develop key building blocks such as amplifiers, filters, oscillators, and data converters, ensuring they meet stringent performance, power, and noise requirements. You'll use industry-standard simulation platforms including SPICE and Cadence Virtuoso to model, analyze, and refine circuit behavior under real-world conditions.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and simulate analog and mixed-signal circuits for semiconductor applications
- Perform signal integrity, noise, and power optimization to meet system specifications
- Generate schematics, layout guidelines, and technical documentation for manufacturing
- Collaborate with digital design, layout, and systems teams to integrate analog components
- Validate designs through bench testing using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and other lab equipment
- Diagnose and resolve circuit-level issues using structured debugging methods
- Participate in design reviews to improve performance, yield, and manufacturability
- Stay informed on emerging trends in analog design and semiconductor processes
Qualifications
Applicants should have at least three years of professional experience in analog or mixed-signal design. Proficiency with simulation tools such as SPICE or Cadence Virtuoso is required, along with a solid grasp of amplifier theory, filtering, and signal conditioning principles. Experience with PCB layout for analog circuits, test equipment operation, and modeling languages like Verilog or MATLAB is essential. Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and clear technical communication are critical.
Ideally, candidates will have five or more years in semiconductor design environments, with exposure to data converters, PLLs, or power management circuits. Familiarity with RF design, low-power techniques, DFM practices, version control, and tape-out processes is highly valued. Experience in silicon validation and DSP concepts is a plus.
Work Environment
This is a hybrid position with options to work remotely in California, Colorado, or New York, or onsite in San Jose or Irvine. The role involves collaboration across engineering disciplines and participation in all phases of product development.
