Job Title

Senior Analog/Mixed-Signal Design Engineer

Role Summary

Lead the design and delivery of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for video, automotive, surveillance, and imaging applications. Drive projects through specification, simulation, tape-out, lab validation, debugging, and production while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Work within a technical team that values knowledge sharing, flexible working, and ongoing training to deliver high-volume, reliable semiconductor products.

Experience Level

Senior β€” typically requires 8+ years of analog or mixed-signal IC design experience delivering commercial silicon products.

Responsibilities

Accountable for the full IC development lifecycle, technical leadership, and cross-team coordination.

  • Design advanced analog and mixed-signal ICs for high-performance video applications using CMOS technologies.
  • Lead specifications, circuit simulation, tape-out, lab validation, silicon bring-up, debugging, and post-silicon optimization.
  • Use EDA tools (Cadence, Synopsys, or similar) for schematic capture, simulation, layout review, and parasitic extraction.
  • Collaborate with digital RTL, layout, verification, customers, and manufacturing partners to deliver production-ready silicon.
  • Develop test plans, analyze silicon data, and optimize designs for yield, power, noise, and reliability.
  • Mentor junior engineers, lead technical reviews, and support team knowledge sharing and documentation.

Requirements

Key technical and professional requirements. Items marked as "nice-to-have" are preferred but not mandatory.

  • 8+ years of analog or mixed-signal IC design experience for commercial silicon products using advanced CMOS processes. (must)
  • Proven record delivering reliable, high-volume silicon products for demanding environments. (must)
  • Strong proficiency with Cadence, Synopsys, or similar EDA tools for design, simulation, layout review, extraction, and verification. (must)
  • Experience with silicon characterization, lab data analysis, and design optimization for yield, power, noise, and reliability. (must)
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams, customers, and partners. (must)
  • Strong technical documentation skills, mentoring experience, adaptability, and commitment to continuous learning. (must)
  • Nice-to-have: prior automotive or imaging/video semiconductor experience and experience with high-volume production processes. (nice-to-have)

Education Requirements

Not specified.
