Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer

Job Title

Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer

Role Summary

Join the Hearables and Wearables Consumer Business Unit to design, simulate, characterize, and release high-performance, ultra-low-power mixed-signal integrated circuits for audio and edge processing. The role focuses on system-level architecture, block integration, laboratory validation, and production release.

Requires collaborative work with digital, verification, layout, and test teams; travel approximately 10%.

Experience Level

Senior — typically 5+ years of CMOS IC design experience (or equivalent). Senior-level responsibility for architecture, technical decisions, and mentoring.

Responsibilities

The role's core responsibilities include:

• Lead architecture and design of complex mixed-signal ICs from concept through production release.
• Drive mixed-signal block integration and system-level tradeoffs to meet performance and power targets.
• Perform advanced schematic design, SPICE simulation, verification, and post-layout simulation.
• Plan and execute laboratory characterization, debug silicon, and resolve complex IC issues.
• Develop and optimize test strategies addressing performance, noise, timing, and power requirements.
• Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers and influence design approaches.
• Collaborate with digital design and design verification teams for chip-level integration and validation.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• Proven mixed-signal IC design experience, including analog circuit design and system integration.
• Familiarity with ADCs, DACs, high-gain amplifiers, switched-capacitor circuits, comparators, integrators, voltage references, and LDOs.
• Experience with schematic capture, SPICE-based simulation, and laboratory characterization.
• Strong problem-solving, written/verbal communication, and cross-team collaboration skills.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience in audio ADC/DAC design and power-management ICs.
• Proficiency with Cadence schematic capture and SPICE simulation flows.
• Experience with MATLAB or similar modeling tools and DSP concepts.
• Analog/digital behavioral modeling expertise.

Education Requirements

M.S. in Electrical Engineering with 5+ years of CMOS IC design experience, or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering.
