Analog Design Engineer - Technical Lead

Job Title

Analog Design Engineer — Technical Lead

Role Summary

Lead the design, development, and validation of complex analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits from concept through silicon qualification. Serve as a technical reference and mentor, coordinate cross-functional teams, and drive delivery of high-performance semiconductor products.

Experience Level

Senior-level. The posting specifies typically >15 years of experience in analog or mixed-signal IC design.

Responsibilities

Accountable for architecture, detailed design, verification, and support across the silicon lifecycle. Key responsibilities include:

• Lead architecture, transistor-level design, and verification of analog/mixed-signal blocks (amplifiers, references, regulators, ADC/DAC, PLLs, clocking, sensor interfaces, power management).
• Perform detailed simulations and ensure performance across process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) corners.
• Drive design reviews, technical risk assessments, problem resolution, and post-layout verification.
• Support layout implementation, silicon bring-up, characterization, and production ramp activities.
• Collaborate with system architects, digital design, verification, layout, product engineering, and manufacturing teams.
• Define and promote design methodologies and best practices; contribute to technology roadmaps.
• Provide technical leadership and mentor junior and senior engineers.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• More than 15 years of experience in analog or mixed-signal IC design.
• Strong expertise in CMOS analog circuit design and analysis.
• Hands-on experience with EDA tools such as Cadence Virtuoso and Spectre for simulation and verification.
• Proven track record of successful silicon development and product delivery.
• Deep understanding of semiconductor device physics, noise analysis, reliability, and design-for-manufacturing considerations.
• Technical leadership, complex project execution, and strong communication skills.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience defining design methodologies and driving continuous improvement initiatives.

Education Requirements

Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, or a related field (explicitly listed as required in the posting).
