About the Role We are seeking a Principal Analog Design Engineer to design, integrate, and characterize high‑performance, high speed analog circuits for next‑generation products.

This role requires deep hands‑on expertise, strong system‑level understanding, and the ability to technically lead complex mixed‑signal designs from concept through silicon qualification and production.

You will work closely with digital, layout, validation, firmware, and product teams to deliver robust, manufacturable solutions for demanding high speed analog applications

Responsibilities Analog Design

- Architect, design, and simulate Analog circuit blocks, including:
- VCOs/PLLs, XOSC
- High Speed Data converters (ADCs/DACs)
- Bias generation, bandgap references, LDOs

- Amplifiers and filters
- LNAs, mixers
- Translate system‑level requirements (noise, gain, linearity, power, phase noise) into robust circuit implementations
- Perform detailed schematic design, simulation, and optimization across PVT corners

System & Architecture Contribution

- Collaborate with system architects to define RF signal chains and analog subsystems
- Drive tradeoff analysis between performance, power, area, and cost
- Support RF budgeting (NF, IP3, phase noise, jitter, spur analysis)

Silicon Implementation & Signoff

- Work closely with layout engineers on:

- Floor planning

- Sensitive routing and matching
- EM, IR, and substrate coupling considerations




- Own or support block‑level and top‑level signoff:

- AC/DC performance

- Noise and linearity

- Stability and yield margin

Validation & Debug

- Lead silicon bring‑up, lab characterization, and debug
- Correlate measurement results with simulation
- Identify root causes and drive fixes for silicon issues
- Support yield improvement and production ramp

Technical Leadership

- Define best practices for RF/analog design and verification
- Mentor Junior engineers and help refine circuits and architectures
- Influence roadmap and architectural decisions
- Serve as a technical point of contact across cross‑functional teams

Required Experience And Skills

- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field
- Typically 10+ years of hands‑on Analog IC design experience
- Proven track record of tape‑out ownership and silicon success

- Strong understanding of
- Analog circuit design techniques with CMOS
- RF fundamentals (noise, linearity, matching, phase noise)

- Experience with industry tools
- Cadence Virtuoso, SpectreRF, EMX or equivalent
- Comfortable working across process nodes and foundries

Desired Experience And Skills

- Mixed‑signal integration experience (Analog + digital SoC)
- High‑speed or precision analog experience
- Familiarity with packaging, test, and manufacturing constraints
- Experience supporting volume production

Soft Skills & Mindset

- Solid problem‑solving and debugging skills
- Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly
- Ownership mindset with attention to detail
- Comfortable influencing without formal authority
- Collaborative and pragmatic approach to engineering tradeoffs
