Mixed Signal Design Engineer

Multiple Locations-
Austin, TX or Wilmington MA , Durham NC , San Diego CA
Skills- SAR ADC, CMOS, Serdes, Spice and Cadence, Matlab etc

Client has an excellent track record of producing breakthrough, innovative technologies including RF DACs and ADCs, and Ser Des PHYs, in cutting-edge FinFET processes for integration into highly sophisticated system-on-chip (SoC) products. The converter cores have won industry and academic recognition in publications and  cores are integrated into products for a variety of end applications, including Automotive, Aerospace and Defense, Communications, and Instrumentation.

Be part of the excitement, bringing your ideas into reality in an environment where you're encouraged and challenged to reach your full potential.

• In this role, you will work with a highly capable team developing our most advanced converters. You should exhibit a strong, intuitive capability in solving complex challenges. Self-motivation and the ability to work effectively within a geographically diverse team will also be important. Your work will include:
• Collaborating with a team of other designers to implement key circuit blocks within a defined architecture
• Comprehending system level impacts of block level parameters and making trade-offs as needed
• Designing challenging transistor-level circuits
• Preparing effective design documents and conducting engaging design reviews
• Guiding layout, evaluation, and test engineering teams

• M.S. or beyond in Electrical Engineering
• 5+ years' experience in CMOS design
• Strong understanding of a wide range of circuits such as wide bandwidth amplifiers and comparators, switched capacitor circuits, precision voltage and current references, LDOs.
• While not a must, experience in high-speed data converter or Ser Des PHY design is a strong plus.
• Experience in Cadence schematic capture and SPICE simulation tools.
• Signal processing knowledge is a strong plus, particularly as it relates to calibration algorithms.
• Experience with MATLAB, for example used as a behavioral modeling tool.
• Good written and verbal communication skills, and ability to work in a large team.
