Employment type: Full-time
Plano, Texas, United States
Responsibilities:
Responsible for design leadership and development of ultra-high performance, low noise analog solutions associated with mixed signal IC s from initial concept, until production ramp, including design for: manufacturability, yield, test, and reliability.
Performs and supervises detailed design, simulation, verification and validation of integrated circuits.
Directs and supervises block level and top-level layout actives to insure optimum circuit performance.
Expert level knowledge and experience designing for system / application level concerns, including: packaging, parasitics, power, die size, cost, etc.
Power User level knowledge of SPICE/Spectre testbench creation and simulations, including: PVT, Monte Carlo, mixed signal, modelling, optimization, etc.
Provides positive internal team leadership and communication, coordination of design requirements and tradeoffs, preparation for weekly meetings (internal and customer).
Analog design subject matter expert level communication with customer (and/or marketing), including: presentation in design reviews, representing the analog design team on weekly conference calls, defining / tracking / working to insure schedule adherence, interactive problem solving and customer communication under pressure, etc.
Highly creative problem solver, able to generate innovative, new next generation IP and file patents.
Generation of detailed relevant documentation including: architectural/concept reviews, design gate reviews, internal design documents, test requirements, etc. Who we are looking for
