Staff Mixed-Signal Design Engineer
Analog DevicesJob Title
Staff Mixed-Signal Design Engineer
Role Summary
Work on advanced high-speed data converter cores in the Advanced Cores Group, designing transistor-level mixed-signal blocks and collaborating with layout, evaluation, and test teams. The team develops ADCs, DACs and SerDes PHYs for SoC integration across automotive, aerospace, communications and instrumentation markets.
This is a hybrid role based in Durham, NC; the position requires solving complex circuit-level challenges within a geographically distributed engineering organization.
Experience Level
Senior — 7+ years of CMOS design experience expected.
Responsibilities
Key responsibilities include:
- Design transistor-level mixed-signal circuit blocks and implement them within defined architectures.
- Analyze system-level impacts of block parameters and perform trade-offs.
- Prepare design documentation and lead or participate in design reviews.
- Coordinate with layout, evaluation, and test engineering teams to bring designs to silicon.
- Collaborate with cross-functional and geographically distributed teams.
Requirements
Must-have and preferred skills:
- Minimum: 7+ years' CMOS design experience.
- Deep understanding of circuits such as wide-bandwidth amplifiers, comparators, switched-capacitor circuits, precision voltage and current references, and LDOs.
- Proven ability in transistor-level circuit design and trade-off analysis.
- Experience with Cadence schematic capture and SPICE simulation tools.
- Proficiency with MATLAB for behavioral modeling.
- Good written and verbal communication skills and ability to work in large teams.
- Nice-to-have: experience with high-speed data converter or SerDes PHY design.
- Nice-to-have: signal-processing knowledge related to calibration algorithms.
Education Requirements
M.S. or higher in Electrical Engineering.
