Job description

For over four decades, Cirrus Logic has been propelled by the top engineers in mixed-signal processing. Our rockstar team thrives on solving complex challenges with innovative end-user solutions for the world's top consumer brands. Cirrus Logic is also known for its award-winning culture, which was built on a foundation of inclusion and fairness, meaningful community engagement, and delivering enjoyable employee experiences at every turn. But we couldn't do it without our extraordinary workforce - and that's where you come in. Join our team and help us continue to make Cirrus Logic an exceptional place to grow your career!
We are seeking a highly motivated Analog Design Engineer to join a collaborative hardware design team developing high performance analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for advanced consumer and embedded applications. In this role, you will contribute to the design of next generation ICs spanning data converters, power management, amplifiers, and common analog infrastructure implemented in advanced CMOS processes.
You will participate in the full IC development lifecycle, from concept and architecture through silicon validation and production, while working closely with cross functional teams to deliver robust, manufacturable solutions that integrate easily into customer systems.
Responsibilities:
  • Design and develop analog and mixed-signal IC blocks from concept through production, including data converters, power management, amplifiers, and supporting circuitry in advanced CMOS processes.
  • Define architectures, perform transistor-level design, and create behavioral and system models using tools such as Matlab, Verilog-A, SystemVerilog, and Simulink.
  • Simulate and verify circuit and chip-level performance using Spectre and mixed-signal methodologies (analog-on-top, digital-on-top).
  • Lead or support layout implementation, post-layout simulation, and performance optimization, ensuring DRC/LVS closure.
  • Perform silicon bring-up, lab validation, debug, and post-silicon characterization using standard lab instrumentation.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including digital, layout, test, and systems engineering to ensure robust, manufacturable designs.
  • Support product validation, characterization, and production test development through debug, analysis, and silicon learning.
  • Contribute to design reviews, technical documentation, and reusable analog infrastructure or platforms.

Required Knowledge, Skills, and Experience:
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field:
    • Bachelor's with 2+ years of relevant IC design experience.
    • Master's with 0+ years of relevant IC design experience.
  • Strong foundation in CMOS analog and mixed-signal IC design.
  • Deep understanding of the analog design flow: architecture, design, integration, verification, and silicon validation.
  • Proficiency with analog modeling and simulation tools (e.g., Matlab, Spectre, Verilog-A, SystemVerilog).
  • Solid understanding of device physics, noise analysis, stability, and control theory.
  • Hands-on lab experience with silicon debug and validation.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Experience:
  • Experience with:
    • Power conversion architectures (inductive and/or capacitive)
    • Delta-sigma ADCs/DACs and discrete-time or continuous-time signal processing
    • Switched-capacitor circuits, PLLs, LNAs, and audio-oriented analog blocks
    • System and behavioral modeling
  • Familiarity with reliability topics (ESD, latch-up, long-term device stress).
  • Experience across multiple CMOS process nodes and geometry scales.
  • Ability to plan, lead, and review analog subsystem designs.
