About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's or master's degree in electrical engineering is required.
  • At least 10 years of experience in analog circuit design, simulation, and verification is required.
  • Solid understanding and full-ownership design experience with complex analog designs is required.
  • Experience with chip design, verification, silicon validation, debugging, quality support, and taking ICs to production is required.
  • Proficiency in designing and owning complex analog blocks, including charge pumps, source-sink LDOs, ultra-low-power oscillators, temperature sensors, current sense, SAR ADCs, housekeeping blocks, protection circuits, bandgap references, V2I, analog buffers, op-amps, comparators, and high-speed level shifters is required.
  • In-depth understanding and ability to implement and compensate control loops and analog feedback loops, including trade-offs between compensation strategies, is required.
  • Ability to derive block-level specifications from top-level chip requirements, independently own and design switching converters such as buck, boost, and buck-boost converters and LDOs, and perform block-level error budgeting is required.
  • Knowledge of control-loop architectures, including constant-frequency, constant on/off-time, and current-mode approaches, and ability to select and implement an approach that meets converter performance and system requirements is required.
  • In-depth knowledge of analog layouts and ability to work with the layout lead from floor planning through chip-top completion and verification, making performance trade-offs, is required.
  • Familiarity with standard design, extraction, and simulation flows and tools, including speed, convergence, and accuracy trade-offs, pre- and post-parasitic simulation options, setup optimization, and tool debugging, is required.
  • Experience establishing design flows and methodologies, including checklists and reviews, and carrying designs through silicon success is required.
  • Experience with end-to-end IC development, silicon debugging, and taking ICs to production is required.
  • In-depth understanding of ESD, latch-up, and other IC-level issues, and ability to define I/O-ring protection, is required.
  • Ability to mentor freshers and junior engineers and lead a small group of engineers through IC development while managing challenges, quality, and schedules is required.

Responsibilities

  • Design and own complex analog IPs and sub-blocks, integrate IPs and subsystems, and own smaller ICs and major IPs in large PMICs.
  • Develop and compensate control loops and analog feedback loops and select compensation strategies.
  • Break down top-level chip requirements into block-level specifications, design complete switching converters and LDOs, and perform block-level error budgeting.
  • Select and implement control-loop architectures to meet converter performance specifications and system requirements.
  • Develop innovative design approaches to meet challenging specifications.
  • Work with the layout lead from floor planning through chip-top completion and verification, making trade-offs to achieve desired performance.
  • Optimize design, extraction, and simulation setups; debug tool-related challenges across pre- and post-parasitic flows.
  • Establish design flows and methodologies, including checklists and reviews, and carry designs through to silicon success.
  • Mentor freshers and junior engineers to improve their technical and other professional skills.
  • Lead a small group of engineers through the stages of IC development, mitigate challenges, ensure high-quality silicon, and meet business schedules.
  • Define protection for the IC I/O ring based on ESD, latch-up, and other IC-level considerations.

Desired Qualifications

  • Thorough understanding of switched-capacitor circuits is advantageous.
