Join our fast-growing semiconductor startup and help develop disruptive mixed-signal solutions that enable tomorrow's AI infrastructure. We are seeking experienced Analog Design Engineers to architect, design, and deliver high-performance analog and mixed-signal circuits for next-generation transceivers and other critical high-speed functions. This is an opportunity to work alongside a world-class engineering team, tackle challenging design problems in advanced process technologies, and make a direct impact on innovative products from architecture through silicon.

Locations: Irvine, CA (HQ) | San Jose, CA | Vancouver, BC | Ottawa, ON

What You Will Do:
• High speed analog circuit design, such as high-speed broadband amplifiers (VGA, CTLE, DRV, etc.)
• Clock generation and distribution (VCOs, PLL, clock distribution, etc.)
• Fundamental analog blocks (bandgap references, LDOs, temp sensors, etc.)
• New techniques for the development of next generation optical transceiver
• Design of custom passive components, from concept to silicon implementation
• Supervise analog layouts within advanced process nodes
• System verification and circuit design spec creation
• Silicon bring-up, debug and support

• Experience with analog design and verification tools (Virtuoso, Spectre, ADE, and post layout extraction tools) is a must
• Experience in advance CMOS design and verification flows (tools to evaluate self-heating, electromigration, safe operating area)
• Experience with electromagnetic simulation tools (EMX, Momentum, HFSS or other) is a plus
• Knowledge of the fundamentals on electromagnetism, lump models, and high frequency design
• Good understanding of analog layouts in FinFET and its effect on high-speed designs is a plus
• Strong communication and documentation skills

Annual Base Salary Range for US: $150,000 - $250,000 (The final offer will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, and location.)
