Job Details
Duration: Permanent, Full-time
Location: Hillsboro, OR (Hybrid: onsite 3 days per week)
Salary Range: $160,000 to $225,000 per year
**Candidates must have valid U.S. work authorization at the time of hire. They are building development teams to create the next generation of RFICs and ASICs for advanced communication systems. The team is currently seeking a skilled and motivated Lead RFIC ASIC Design Engineer to drive the development of cutting-edge RF and analog circuits for applications in wireless communications and beyond. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to high-impact projects that will shape the future of communication technologies.
Position Description:
The role involves leading a design team to create both full chips and large analog macros. Responsibility includes thinking at the higher chip level, performing block aggregation, and making decisions on trade-offs between various block partitioning schemes. Close collaboration with layout engineers on top-level floor-planning is required to ensure optimized designs.
With a thorough understanding of analog circuit design, independent design of various functional blocks will be expected, along with in-depth knowledge of BiCMOS and CMOS process technologies. Expertise in simulation models, design rules, and verification procedures (DRC/LVS/ERC) will be applied, while also focusing on minimizing device mismatch, noise, signal coupling, and ESD.
The role entails designing analog integrated circuits for complex mixed-signal SoCs, taking them from creation through to production. Collaboration with cross-functional teams will be essential to meet design objectives and schedules. Position Responsibilities:
- Manage large analog block / full-chip schematics to ensure correct connectivity and functionality.
- Assist layout floor-planning efforts at a high-level.
- Design and implement high speed analog/mixed-signal circuits in advanced CMOS/BiCMOS technology for integration in high performance mixed-signal SoCs.
- Clearly communicate with team members the various requirements or design conflicts.
- Design, simulate, analyze, model, document and communicate integrated circuit IP.
- Understand system level design requirements as applied to integrated circuit design.
- Characterization and debugging of analog IC designs for testing and measurement equipment.
- M.S. in Electrical Engineering.
- 5 - 10 years of work experience in IC Design.
- Proven ability to technically lead a design team to create both full chips and large analog macros.
- Thinks at the higher chip level to do block aggregation.
- Understands trade-offs between various block partitioning schemes.
- Experience doing top-level floor-planning with a layout engineer.
- Thorough understanding of detailed analog circuit design and the ability to design independently various functional blocks.
- In-depth understanding of BiCMOS and CMOS process technologies
- Understanding of simulation models, design rules and verification procedures (DRC/LVS/ERC)
- Experience with design practices such as minimizing device mismatch, noise, signal coupling, ESD
- Experience designing analog integrated circuits for a complex mixed signal SoCs from creation into production.
