Electronic IC; EIC Designer. Berkeley LilyLifestyle

Electronic IC (EIC) Designer

You will design the electronic integrated circuits that interface our photonic computing cores. This is an end-to-end IC design role spanning architecture, schematic, layout, and tape‑out. You will work closely with our PIC designer, FPGA engineer, and packaging team to ensure tight photonic-electronic co‑design across the stack.

• Design analog and mixed‑signal circuits for photonic integrated circuit (PIC) (drivers, TIAs, PLLs, ADCs/DACs as applicable)
• Own full custom IC design flow: schematic, simulation, layout, DRC/LVS/PEX, tape‑out
• Co‑design with the PIC team to meet joint optical and electrical specifications
• Interface with the FPGA engineer on digital control interfaces and signal integrity
• Collaborate with packaging team on die‑level integration and interposer design

• 5+ years of industry experience in analog/mixed‑signal or custom digital IC design
• Proficiency in Cadence Virtuoso, Synopsys tools, and KLayout
• Demonstrated end‑to‑end tape‑out ownership
• Experience with high‑speed or RF circuit design
• Industry background strongly preferred

• Experience designing driver or receiver circuits for photonic or optical systems
• Exposure to 2.5D/3D integration or co‑packaged optics

We're reviewing applications on a rolling basis and will reach out to shortlisted candidates.
