Sr. Design Engineer / Design Engineer

Job Title

Sr. Design Engineer / Design Engineer

Role Summary

Design analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for power management products using advanced BiCMOS/DMOS processes. Work on circuit synthesis, simulation, layout supervision, test support and customer evaluation for products such as switching regulators, eFuses, half-bridge drivers and point-of-load regulators.

Experience Level

Senior-level. Experience guidance: posting specifies a minimum of two years of relevant semiconductor/analog IC design experience for candidates with an MSEE.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include design, verification, and production support of analog/mixed-signal power ICs.

• Architect and synthesize circuits from transistor/resistor level to system-level; run simulations and support verification.
• Supervise and review layout to ensure correct analog layout techniques and reliability considerations.
• Support ATE development and implement Design-for-Test methods.
• Assist applications/field engineers with evaluation, characterization and customer support.
• Work on products for networking, telecom, servers, GPUs and point-of-load applications.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and attributes.

• Strong understanding of analog and mixed-signal circuits (amplifiers, comparators, oscillators, references, LDOs, POR, level shifters, drivers, current sensing).
• Practical knowledge of analog layout techniques and layout verification practices.
• Familiarity with ESD, latch-up mechanisms and device/reliability considerations for ICs.
• Knowledge of IC qualification requirements and product characterization.
• Solid circuit fundamentals and strong simulation skills.
• Effective verbal and written communication skills for cross-functional collaboration and customer interaction.
• Experience with power-management topologies (switching regulators, half-bridge drivers, eFuses) is strongly desirable.

Education Requirements

PhD in a relevant field is accepted; alternatively an MSEE with a minimum of two years of semiconductor or analog/power IC design experience (as stated in the posting).
