Analog IC Design Engineer

Quick Facts

Analog IC Design Engineer

Description

Design and validate analog integrated circuit blocks by driving specifications, behavioral modeling, feasibility studies, and transistor-level design for ADC/DAC-related functions. Own block documentation through formal design reviews, mask/layout enablement, top-level simulations, production and bench test planning, and lab measurement-driven bug fixes. Ensure ESD compliance and work closely with test engineers to improve testability and yield outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Specify analog portions of ICs
• Create behavioral models to validate architectures
• Conduct transistor-level feasibility studies for ADC/DAC blocks
• Craft design blocks and document toward formal design reviews
• Drive mask design to implement layout views
• Perform top-level simulations to validate integration
• Define production/bench-level test plans
• Take lab measurements to validate analog designs
• Review yield and lab test results to drive bug fixes
• Implement design for ESD compliance

Requirements

• BS degree
• Minimum 10 years of relevant industry experience

Preferred Qualifications

• Deep knowledge of ADC/DAC architectures and application fit
• Deep knowledge of band-gaps, bias, op-amps, switched-cap circuits, LDOs, and feedback/compensation techniques
• Expertise in low-noise design techniques
• Expertise in high-precision design under device mismatch
• Experience with C, Matlab, and Verilog modeling
• Strong device physics knowledge for analog IC design
• Experience using spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, and signal generators for validation
• Extensive experience working with production test engineers to firm up test plans and design-for-testability details
