Analog Circuit Design Engineer

Job Title

Analog Circuit Design Engineer

Role Summary

Design and implement integrated voltage regulator (IVR) and power-management analog/mixed-signal circuits for advanced processors and SoCs. Work across architecture, transistor-level design, verification, layout collaboration, and post-silicon characterization to meet performance, yield, and reliability targets. Role is based in Bangalore and eligible for a hybrid work model.

Experience Level

Mid-level - 3–7 years of professional analog IC design experience.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Define circuit architecture and develop analog topologies (op-amps, bandgaps, ADC/DAC, PLLs) for IVR/power-management blocks.
• Perform transistor-level design using industry-standard tools and flows.
• Run extensive simulations including Monte Carlo, corner, noise, and stability analyses to ensure yield and robustness.
• Oversee and collaborate with layout engineers on placement, matching, shielding, and parasitic minimization.
• Verify designs with SPICE-based simulators and behavioral models; develop Verilog-A/Verilog-AMS models as needed.
• Bench-test and characterize silicon prototypes; debug hardware anomalies and compare post-silicon results to pre-silicon models.
• Work cross-functionally with system, digital, and test teams to meet system-level performance and manufacturability goals.

Requirements

Required technical skills and experience:

• Expert knowledge of MOSFET/BJT device physics, small-signal modeling, and aging effects.
• Proficiency with Cadence (Spectre/Virtuoso) and other EDA tool suites (Mentor, Synopsys, or equivalent).
• Deep understanding of signal integrity topics: thermal noise, jitter, crosstalk, and PSRR.
• Familiarity with mixed-signal behavioral modeling (Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS).
• Experience with transistor-level simulation practices (Monte Carlo, corner, noise, yield analysis).
• Hands-on post-silicon lab experience for bench characterization and debug of analog/mixed-signal ICs.
• Experience designing for FinFET or planar CMOS process nodes.
• Strong analytical and mathematical skills for feedback-system analysis and stability.

Education Requirements

BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering (EE) with a concentration in Analog IC Design.
