Staff Level Digital Design / DV Engineer for Mixed Signal Development

The Platform IP Development group is seeking an experienced andhighly technical,staff-level digital/mixed-signalIC designer and design verification engineer to join our team.  As part of this role, you will develop key strategic IP that will be leveraged across multiple businesses/product opportunities throughout the company.  A key focus area for this position includes interacting with internal customers to communicate, improve, and maintain developed IP.  Primary IP design area targets digital/mixed-signal; however, design efforts will span a wide application range including precision references, IOs, power, and mixed-signal/analog circuitry.

Responsibilities include:

• Design, simulation, and verification of digital IP for and within mixed-signal IP environments for internal customers, taking developments from multi-customer definitions to completion

• Working closely with analogengineersto create digital control, calibration, and interface circuits for mixed-signal IP designs and for chip-level IP integrations

• Creating, when needed for a mixed-signal IP or chip-level IP project: RTL and analog models, hard and soft digital macros, custom and standard I/O interfaces, register and test maps, and verification with IP collateral for customers

• Working with digital back-end engineers to derive synthesis, scan test insertion, place-and-route, timing closure, verification, and timing model creation

• Documenting and presenting each digital designand corresponding results

• Working closely with IP team and IP customers to define mixed-signal design best-practices, define system interfaces to IP and optimize IP digital partitioning for customers

• Supporting characterization/debugging in the lab/ATE environments

• Working with designers and teams across the company to support IP development and integration

Qualifications/Requirements:

• MSEE or PhD, concentration of digitalor mixed-signal IC design 

• 10+ years relevant design experiencein mixed-signalIC design

• Good written and verbal communication skills (clarity of message with good attention to detail)

• Efficient and organized work methodology for optimal multi-tasking

• Understanding of the differences and challenges of mixed-signal design and their digital design requirements

• Comfortable using standard digital design/simulation tools and Cadence environment

• Ability to problem solve at all levels of design from gates to systems

• Ability to work independently and alsocollaborate as part of team

• Passionate about learning different areas in design, applications, and products 

• Familiarity with DV methodology and implementation
