About Analog Devices (ADI)

Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) designs and manufactures semiconductor products and solutions. We enable our customers to interpret the world around us by intelligently bridging the physical and digital worlds with unmatched technologies that sense, measure, and connect.

Analog Devices is seeking a senior physical design engineer for its Data Center & Energy (DCE) group. Within DCE, we deliver high‑reliability power, connectivity, and analytics solutions for modern data centers and energy infrastructure.

The successful candidate will own and execute the physical implementation of complex mixed‑signal SoCs, from floor planning through signoff. The role spans multiple process nodes—from mature analog processes through advanced deep‑submicron FinFET technologies—and involves close collaboration with RTL designers, analog layout teams, and verification engineers to deliver silicon that meets aggressive performance, power, and area targets.

This is a demanding multi‑disciplinary position with unique growth potential. The group culture aims to foster a challenging, exciting, and supportive environment. The team members must be comfortable working on a wide variety of products and technologies in a fast‑paced and agile environment. Analog Devices rewards performance, innovation, and collaboration.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Drive physical implementation from RTL handoff through GDSII signoff, including floor planning, power planning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, and timing closure
Perform and close static timing analysis across PVT corners; resolve timing violations with design and layout teams
Develop and maintain robust power delivery networks; perform IR-drop and electromigration analysis and drive fixes to closure
Execute physical verification (DRC, LVS, antenna, ERC) and resolve issues to achieve clean signoff
Collaborate with analog layout engineers on mixed‑signal integration, including floorplan co‑optimization and constraint development for sensitive analog/digital boundaries
Support design‑for‑test (DFT) insertion, scan chain stitching, and ATPG pattern generation
Contribute to flow development, methodology improvements, and automation of physical design tasks
Support silicon bring‑up and debug; correlate physical design decisions with lab measurements

Minimum Qualifications:

BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent)
4+ years of experience in ASIC/SoC physical design and implementation
Strong proficiency with Cadence digital implementation tools (Genus, Innovus, Tempus, Conformal, Voltus, Pegasus)
Solid understanding of static timing analysis, clock domain crossing, and multi‑corner multi‑mode signoff
Experience with mature analog process nodes (e.g., 180nm BCD) in addition to advanced digital nodes
Experience with power analysis (IR-drop, EM) and power intent specification (UPF/CPF)
Working knowledge of DFT methodologies (scan…
