Responsibilities
The core responsibilities focus on analog design, cross-discipline architecture work, IP validation, and production support.
- Design analog circuitry for high-speed SerDes and mixed-signal IP targeting advanced nodes (3nm, 2nm and beyond).
- Participate in SerDes architecture development with DSP, analog, and digital teams.
- Define and coordinate IP characterization and validation plans with Applications Engineering (AE).
- Support product integration and customer troubleshooting.
- Provide guidance and instructions to layout engineers for analog and mixed-signal blocks.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills, tools, and domain knowledge.
- Strong analog design fundamentals and hands-on experience designing PLLs, data converters, oscillators, and high-speed SerDes components (CTLE, FFE, DFE, CDR, line drivers, etc.).
- Proficiency with analog design and verification tools such as Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, ADE, and post-layout extraction tools.
- Knowledge of signal integrity techniques, noise reduction, and multi-GHz low-jitter clock generation and distribution.
- Good understanding of analog layout optimization for high-speed designs.
- Experience with system-level pre-tapeout analog validation and silicon bring-up and debugging.
- Strong communication and documentation skills.
Education Requirements
PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field (as stated in the posting).
