What you will do

• Define architectures and block-level specifications for high-speed Datacom Ethernet and USB SERDES.
• Design and verify analog and mixed-signal macros, including ADCs, DACs, PLLs, transmitters, receivers, LDOs, regulators, high-speed I/Os, bandgaps, POR circuits, oscillators, charge pumps, protection circuits, switching converters, and analog switches.
• Perform system- and transistor-level mixed-mode simulations across operating scenarios, process corners, and mismatch conditions.
• Develop schematics, behavioral models, design specifications, and validation plans using Cadence Virtuoso and related tools.
• Collaborate with layout and cross-functional engineering teams to optimize parasitic effects, interfaces, and implementation details.
• Lead design reviews, document designs, and support post-silicon ATE and laboratory validation.

Requirements

• BSEE and at least 15 years of industry experience in Electronics or Electrical Engineering.
• Demonstrated experience designing multiple analog SERDES sub-blocks, including ADCs, DACs, PLLs, transmitters, receivers, LDOs, regulators, high-speed I/Os, bandgaps, POR circuits, oscillators, charge pumps, protection circuits, DC-DC switching converters, and analog switches.
• Strong expertise in low-power and high-speed design techniques, device physics, complex system analysis, and mixed-signal simulation.
• Experience architecting high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, Ethernet, and USB.
• Extensive experience with Cadence and other analog/mixed-signal IC design tools, including proficiency in Cadence Virtuoso.
• Hands-on laboratory validation experience with power supplies, source meters, oscilloscopes, signal generators, and related equipment.
• Experience with DRC, LVS, ERC, PEX, EM analysis, SOA verification, aging analysis, and SHE effects.
• Experience with Unix/Linux and scripts such as Scheme, SKILL, Perl, or Tcl.
• Strong verbal, written, technical, communication, analytical, interpersonal, collaboration, organization, and continuous-learning skills; ability to manage multiple complex tasks, meet aggressive timelines, and work with minimal supervision.
