Sr Staff Analog Engineer

Job Title

Sr Staff Analog Engineer

Role Summary

Design and verify complex analog block-level and subsystem circuits for custom mixed-signal ASICs. Work within the Configurable Mixed-Signal Division to deliver competitive high-voltage analog and precision IP, drive silicon debug and characterization, and support test and production ramp.

Experience Level

Senior — requires extensive experience; the posting specifies 10+ years of analog and mixed-signal design experience.

Responsibilities

Accountable for architecture, design, verification, and post-silicon validation of analog circuits and subsystems.

• Specify and design CMOS analog circuits to meet performance, area, power, and schedule constraints.
• Run analog/mixed-signal verification simulations at block and chip level and review AMS simulation results.
• Collaborate with project leads on system and design strategy for custom ASICs.
• Guide layout teams to ensure layout quality for designed circuits.
• Produce clear design documentation and participate in design reviews with a consulting role.
• Drive silicon debugging, characterization, and lab evaluation of own designs.
• Work with DFT, test, and product engineers to align strategies and support test development and production ramp.
• Schedule tasks, report progress to project leaders, and identify potential project risks.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and behaviors for the role; education details are listed separately below.

• Proven competence across analog design disciplines and experience proposing innovative solutions.
• Design experience in motor drivers (DC, stepper, BLDC) and power-management circuits, including exposure to high-voltage BCD processes.
• Experience with data-acquisition systems (ADC, DAC, current sensing) is a plus.
• Knowledge of analog modeling and AMS simulation techniques.
• Strong proficiency with EDA tools, particularly the Cadence design environment.
• Experience supporting lab characterization, silicon debug, and production test development.
• Effective written and verbal communication across multi-site, multi-cultural teams; ability to influence technical decisions.
• Ability to apply advanced methods to complex problems and work across discipline interfaces.

Education Requirements

M.S. in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) plus approximately 10 years of experience in analog and mixed-signal design as stated in the posting.
