Job description

The Role 

We are seeking a Mixed-Signal Behavioral Modeling Engineer to own the creation of behavioral modeling and drive mixed-signal verification methodology from the ground up. You will be part of a collaborative design team developing state-of-the-art mixed-signal SoCs to be hosted on some of the largest, most powerful, rapidly designed and rapidly manufactured satellites ever deployed in space. Your work will directly influence top-level integration and silicon tapeout success. This is a high-impact, technical role with significant ownership across modeling, methodology, verification, and cross-functional alignment with RF, analog, and digital teams.  

Responsibilities 

  • Develop high-level behavioral models for analog and mixed-signal IP (ADCs, DACs, PLLs, LDOs, RF front-end blocks, biasing, amplifiers, etc.). 
  • Create abstracted models using Verilog, Verilog-AMS, or SystemVerilog. 
  • Develop regression infrastructure and mixed-signal testbenches enabling co-simulation (digital + analog). 
  • Integrate AMS models into digital verification environments (UVM-based). 
  • Define and build the mixed-signal verification methodology for top-level SoC and subsystem verification. 
  • Support architectural exploration through early-phase modeling and system-level simulations.  
  • Collaborate with analog/RF designers to capture real-world analog behaviors and map them into accurate behavioral abstractions. 
  • Work with digital and verification teams to ensure seamless integration of AMS models. 
  • Provide modeling and verification insights during architectural reviews, PDR/CDR, and silicon bring-up. 
  • Act as technical leader and subject-matter expert. 

Required Qualifications 

  • M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field. 
  • 2+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal modeling and/or AMS verification. 
  • Hands-on experience with SystemVerilog, Verilog-AMS, wreal/RNM, or equivalent modeling languages. 
  • Strong understanding of analog/mixed-signal circuits (PLLs, LDOs, ADC/DACs, RF/IF paths, clocking, amplifiers). 
  • Experience with mixed-signal co-simulation environments (Cadence AMS Designer, Synopsys VCS AMS, or similar). 

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Experience building AMS verification methodologies from scratch. 
  • Familiarity with UVM-based verification and digital design flows. 
  • Knowledge of signal processing theory, RF system modeling, or communication systems. 
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink, Python modeling, or SystemC AMS for high-level architectural modeling. 
  • Experience working in cross-functional, geographically distributed teams.  

Compensation and Benefits:

  • Base salary range for this role is $130,000 - $180,000 + equity in the company
  • Salary will be based on several factors including, but not limited to: knowledge and skills, education, and experience level
  • Comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical/dental/vision/ coverage, life insurance, paid parental leave, and many other perks
