Analog Design Engineering Intern

Job Title

Analog Design Engineering Intern

Role Summary

Work as an intern on analog and mixed-signal IC design projects, supporting design, simulation, layout, silicon validation, and lab characterization under the guidance of senior engineers.

The role is hands-on and intended to develop practical skills across the full IC development lifecycle using industry-standard EDA tools.

Experience Level

Entry-level internship. Suitable for students or early-career candidates seeking practical experience in analog/mixed-signal IC design.

Responsibilities

Typical responsibilities during the internship include:

• Assist in design, simulation, and verification of analog and mixed-signal circuits (amplifiers, filters, data converters).
• Use SPICE and Cadence (or equivalent) tools to analyse circuit performance and validate designs.
• Support IC layout activities with attention to matching, parasitics, reliability, and manufacturability.
• Perform laboratory measurements and device characterization using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and power supplies.
• Collaborate with senior engineers to debug, optimize performance, and support silicon bring-up.
• Document design results, test data, and technical analyses clearly and concisely.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and attributes:

• Fundamental understanding of analog circuit design (amplifiers, filters, biasing, feedback).
• Basic knowledge of mixed-signal IC principles and analog-digital interactions.
• Familiarity with circuit simulation and modelling using SPICE or equivalent EDA tools.
• Understanding of CMOS technologies and semiconductor device fundamentals.
• Exposure to IC layout concepts including matching and parasitic effects.
• Hands-on laboratory measurement and characterization skills; strong analytical and debugging ability.
• Effective verbal and written communication and ability to work in a team.

Education Requirements

Not specified.
