Principal Analog & Mixed Signal IC Design Engineer

Principal Analog & Mixed Signal IC Design Engineer

Fresh off a successful funding round, this well-capitalized (Series B) start-up is pioneering a new category of high-resolution perception sensing technology for ADAS and autonomous driving.

Location: Boston MA or San Jose CA (hybrid)

Responsibilities

• Lead activities for the design and implementation of high-performance, low-power analog and mixed-signal blocks e.g. bandgap references, temperature sensors, diagnostic ADCs, programmable gain amplifiers, power detectors, bias circuits
• Derive block-level specifications from system requirements and contribute to architecture discussions
• Own schematic design, pre-/post-layout simulation, and verification using industry-standard EDA tools
• Collaborate with layout engineers to ensure robust and efficient physical design
• Support silicon bring-up, validation, and debug in the lab
• Partner with RF, digital, and systems engineers to enable seamless integration of mixed-signal IP into the overall sensor SoC

Key Qualifications

• 10+ years hands-on experience in analog and mixed-signal IC design, ideally in CMOS technologies at 28nm TSMC
• Expertise in bandgap design, temperature sensors, biasing circuits, IFM, PGA, power detection, or diagnostic ADCs
• Solid background in low-power design methodologies and tradeoffs
• Proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, and AMS simulation tools
• Experience with lab validation, silicon debug, and characterization
• MS or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent

Bonus: prior exposure to sensor products or radar-based systems

• Mid-Senior level

• Full-time

• Engineering, Design, and Science

• Semiconductor Manufacturing
• Motor Vehicle Manufacturing
• Electrical, and Electronics Manufacturing
