Analog DevicesJob Title
Principal Mixed Signal Design Engineer
Role Summary
Join the Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) Industrial team in Wilmington, MA to lead mixed-signal IC development for high-performance production test systems. The role focuses on high-speed, fine-line analog CMOS and chiplet-level system designs, collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate designs into ATE products.
Experience Level
Senior level. The posting specifies 7+ years of relevant system design, architecture, and integration experience.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities include end-to-end mixed-signal design and technical leadership for wireline and high-speed analog systems used in ATE products.
- Lead architecture and detailed design of complex mixed-signal systems to meet performance and reliability targets.
- Design wireline transmitters and receivers.
- Develop mixed-mode decision feedback equalizers (DFE) and analog/digital equalization techniques.
- Design and implement clock & data recovery (CDR) circuits; collaborate on VCO/PLL designs.
- Design custom high-speed digital circuits and digitally-assisted high-speed analog blocks.
- Integrate IC designs into larger system and chiplet-level architectures with cross-functional teams.
- Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and present design concepts and results to stakeholders.
- Support activities that may require up to 10% travel.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills and experience; preferred skills noted separately.
- 7+ years of experience in system design, architecture engineering, and design integration.
- Proven experience in RF or high-speed CMOS and/or data converter design.
- Expertise in FinFET processes (e.g., 16 nm, 5 nm) or fine-line planar analog CMOS (e.g., 28 nm).
- Experience with software-defined CMOS communications or radar system design.
- Proficiency in digitally-assisted high-speed analog design and wireline equalization (analog & digital).
- Strong presentation, writing, and verbal communication skills.
- Preferred: strong analytical/problem-solving, teamwork, project management skills, and ability to adapt to changing technologies.
Education Requirements
B.S. in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) required; M.S. in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) preferred.
