This is a key position in a lively, exciting, and dynamic environment, suited to a candidate with a growth mindset, a strong passion for learning, and a can-do attitude.

Responsibilities

• Development of CMOS mixed-signal circuitry; from concept, architecture, design, design integration through to production with an awareness of competing solutions and commercial pressures
• Make a significant contribution to all phases of the project from business and resource planning, market definition, through to development and product delivery.
• Model analog circuits and solutions in Matlab/Simulink, Verilog-A, SystemVerilog.
• Simulate and verify circuit performance and functionality using Spectre and ADEXL.
• Transistor level implementation and design verification.
• Simulation and verification at the chip level using analog-on-top and digital-on-top methodologies.
• Lead all aspects of layout implementation and perform post-layout simulations.
• Hands-on lab evaluation, silicon learning, and debug.
• Support post-silicon activities including product validation, characterization, and production test.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• BS, MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering (or related fields) with proven and relevant professional experience in mixed signal CMOS circuit design.
• Deep understanding of analog design flows including architecture, design, and design integration.
• Strong skills in CMOS analog design and layout of high precision, extremely low power sensing circuits.
• Strong s-domain and z-domain analysis skills.
• Hands-on lab test/debug experience with a range a lab equipment.
• Organised and detailed with strong communication skills.
• Possess outstanding analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Results-oriented and thrive in a dynamic environment.

Preferred Skills and Qualifications
