- A graduate degree in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, or a related field is required; a PhD is strongly preferred.
- At least 12 years of experience in wireless communications system architecture for advanced software-defined radio systems.
- Experience owning end-to-end communication signal chains, including cascaded error budgeting, quantization trade-offs, and performance modeling across radio-frequency, analog-to-digital converter, digital-to-analog converter, and digital signal processing blocks.
- Deep expertise in multiple-input multiple-output and multi-user spatial processing architectures.
- Deep expertise in channel estimation.
- Deep expertise in signal-to-noise ratio and phase-noise budgets and mapping them into mixed-signal design requirements.
- System-level modeling experience using MATLAB or Python.
- Ability to articulate complex system decisions to internal engineering teams and senior-level customers.
- Proven leadership defining specifications consumed by register-transfer-level design, mixed-signal design, verification, and system validation teams.
- Strong customer communication skills and comfort presenting architectural trade-offs to vice president- and chief technology officer-level stakeholders.
- Define system architecture for next-generation multi-antenna and software-defined radio communication platforms, influencing product strategy and long-term roadmap planning.
- Lead technical engagement with strategic customers, represent system trade-offs, negotiate performance specifications, and align joint integration plans.
- Architect and maintain MATLAB and analytical models covering the full signal chain, including channel modeling, quantization-noise allocation, signal-to-noise-ratio budgeting, radio-frequency non-linearities, and digital signal processing algorithm constraints.
- Generate precise block-level specifications for digital baseband, calibration engines, channel processing, mixed-signal converters, and radio-frequency interfacing elements.
- Drive alignment among digital architecture, signal-processing algorithms, mixed-signal circuit selections, analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converter dynamic-range decisions, local-oscillator and subsystem-noise considerations, and thermal and power constraints.
- Collaborate with validation and silicon bring-up teams to ensure post-silicon results trace back to modeled assumptions.
- Define measurement-level key performance indicators and debugging methodologies when deviations arise.
- Provide architectural guidance to system engineers, signal-processing developers, and hardware design teams.
- Develop reusable models, internal best practices, and system-level methodologies.
- Participate in internal architecture reviews, contribute to core intellectual-property innovation strategy, and represent the company in technical engagements, standards-relevant discussions, and key customer milestones.
Omni Design Technologies delivers high-performance, ultra-low power IP cores for mixed-signal SoCs that power devices across 5G, LiDAR, automotive networks, AI, image sensing, and IoT. It develops and validates IP blocks and licenses them to chip makers, offering customization and support to ensure seamless integration into customer designs. The cores are designed to work on FinFET processes down to 28nm, with proven silicon such as gigasample low-power ADCs and DACs on TSMC 28nm. The company differentiates itself through validated, silicon-proven IP, deep collaboration with customers and partners (e.g., LeddarTech, MegaChips), and a global design footprint (new Fort Collins design center). Its goal is to enable customers to build sophisticated, power-efficient, mixed-signal SoCs quickly by providing ready-to-license IP plus engineering services that fit their specific needs.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- September 17, 2025 Series A raised over $35 million from CDIB-TEN and others.
- February 6, 2026 CPO development positions Omni for AI data-center interconnect demand.
- 2026 hiring added Hinesh Shah, Poh Sim Gan, and expanded European recruiting.
What critics are saying
- Omni sells IP, so delayed customer tape-outs directly defer revenue recognition.
- Broadcom, Marvell, and Astera Labs compress pricing in optical I/O and data-converter IP.
- If 3nm CPO adoption stalls, Omni remains a niche licensing shop with limited scale.
What makes Omni Design Technologies unique
- Omni Design builds ultra-low-power analog IP for 3nm and 28nm nodes.
- Its 200G-class CPO AFE targets 224Gb/s PAM4 with integrated TX driver and TIA.
- The company spans data converters, optical I/O, radar, and 5G/6G connectivity.
