Analog Design Engineer (Precision Analog) — New Grad

Job Title

Analog Design Engineer — Precision Analog (New Grad)

Role Summary

Join the core R&D team to design and develop precision integrated circuits. As a campus hire you will work across the full product lifecycle: circuit design, verification, silicon validation, and test under senior-engineer mentorship.

Experience Level

Entry-level (New graduate). This posting targets fresh Ph.D. graduates.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include:

• Contribute to product specification and select appropriate process nodes.
• Perform transistor- to system-level circuit design for precision analog ICs.
• Run circuit simulation and verification; develop test methodologies.
• Supervise and verify physical layout implementation for electrical compliance.
• Lead post-silicon debugging, characterization, and evaluation after tape-out.
• Support test-program development and product release activities with test and product engineers.
• Propose and evaluate novel circuit ideas; assist in documentation (application notes, data sheets) and demo boards.
• Collaborate with packaging, CAD, and process teams to optimize power density, efficiency, and reliability.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and competencies:

• Strong fundamentals in analog/digital circuits, semiconductor physics, and IC design flows.
• Familiarity with precision analog building blocks (op-amps, ADCs/DACs, references) and error-budget analysis (offset, noise, drift).
• Experience with circuit-level simulation and logic verification; ability to develop test methodologies.
• Ability to perform silicon debugging and characterization under senior guidance.
• Effective teamwork and clear technical communication skills.
• Time-management skills to organize assignments and meet deadlines under supervision.
• Familiarity with mainstream EDA tools for circuit design and simulation.

Nice-to-have: layout review experience, exposure to packaging/process interactions, or prior IC design internship.

Education Requirements

Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering or Microelectronics. Fresh graduates only.
