As the industry’s leading expert in embedded processing with unmatched quality and system-level know-how, we have evolved to provide scalable and comprehensive semiconductor solutions for automotive, industrial, infrastructure, and IoT industries based on the broadest product portfolio, including High Performance Computing, Embedded Processing, Analog & Connectivity, and Power.

Design and verify analog block-level and subsystem circuits for custom mixed-signal ASICs, ensuring they meet functional, performance, power, area, and schedule requirements. Translate customer and product requirements into clear design specifications and practical circuit solutions.

Responsibilities

• Design and verify CMOS analog circuits for custom mixed-signal ASICs, including amplifiers, oscillators, LDOs, comparators, references, and biasing circuits.
• Take technical ownership of assigned subsystems and guide them from specification and design through silicon validation and production ramp.
• Collaborate with project leads and cross-functional teams to define system architecture and design strategies.
• Work closely with Layout Engineering to guide physical implementation and ensure layout quality for assigned circuits.
• Develop and maintain accurate design specifications, simulation results, review materials, and technical documentation.
• Partner with Design-for-Test engineers to support DFT strategy and implementation.
• Lead silicon debugging, characterization, and laboratory evaluation activities for assigned designs.
• Collaborate with Test and Product Engineering to support test development, qualification, and production ramp.
• Identify technical risks and resolve design issues through analysis, simulation, and laboratory investigation.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to less experienced engineers.
• Take ownership of continued technical and professional development through internal learning, collaboration, and knowledge sharing.

• 5–8 years of relevant experience in analog or mixed-signal integrated circuit design.
• Hands-on experience designing and verifying CMOS analog circuits, including amplifiers, oscillators, LDOs, comparators, voltage references, and biasing circuits.
• Experience with subsystem- and chip-level verification, including analog mixed-signal verification.
• Strong proficiency with EDA design tools and the Cadence design environment.
• Experience designing filters, PLLs, or RF circuits such as LNAs and mixers is preferred.
• Ability to select appropriate design methods, tools, and techniques to resolve complex technical problems.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to develop practical and innovative design solutions.
• Ability to work independently with limited supervision while collaborating effectively across project teams.
• Demonstrated ability to make significant technical contributions to complex engineering projects.
• Ability to clearly share technical knowledge and provide guidance or mentorship to less experienced engineers.
• Results-oriented, with the ability to deliver high-quality work within demanding project schedules.
• Strong written, verbal, presentation, and technical communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively within multisite and multicultural teams.
• Cross-cultural awareness and sensitivity.
• Willingness to undertake occasional international travel, including at short notice.

Education
