Staff Mixed-Signal IC Designer
Analog DevicesJob Title
Staff Mixed-Signal IC Designer
Role Summary
Design low-power, high-performance analog and mixed-signal audio integrated circuits as part of the PES Audio team. The role covers system- and circuit-level architecture, transistor-level design, and delivery of production-ready silicon in collaboration with layout, test, and cross-functional teams.
This senior position provides technical leadership and mentorship, participates in bench evaluation and production test activities, and influences system-level architecture decisions for audio products.
Experience Level
Senior — typically requires 5+ years of progressive experience in analog and mixed-signal circuit architecture and design.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities include leading architecture and executing designs through to silicon, enabling successful verification and production test, and mentoring junior engineers.
- Lead architecture definition for analog and mixed-signal functionality.
- Execute designs from abstract/system level down to transistor level.
- Provide guidance for layout implementation, bench evaluation, and production test.
- Actively participate in bench evaluation with the evaluation team.
- Communicate design choices, performance trade-offs, and project progress to stakeholders.
- Mentor and provide technical leadership to junior engineers.
- Collaborate with multi-site, cross-functional engineering teams; travel approximately 10% as required.
Requirements
Must-have skills and experience. Preferred items listed separately.
- 5+ years of progressive experience architecting and designing analog and mixed-signal circuits.
- Hands-on experience with low-power transistor-level design.
- Proficiency with Spectre simulation tools or equivalent; experience with behavioral/system-level modeling tools.
- Good understanding of semiconductor device physics.
- Experience with bench evaluation and production test processes.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to collaborate across sites.
- Proven ability to mentor and technically lead engineering teams.
Preferred:
- Understanding of signal processing (data converters, DSP).
- Experience with power design.
- Experience in audio IC design.
- Passion for audio applications.
Education Requirements
Degree in Electronic Engineering or Computer Engineering (bachelor's level) is specified; the posting couples the degree expectation with 5+ years of progressive analog/mixed-signal design experience.
