Principal / Master Analog IC Design Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Development of Analog/Mixed-Signal circuits from specifications to prototypes.
• System-level analysis and evaluation, full-chip architecture design, analysis, modeling, simulation, and integration.
• Schematic entry, corner simulation, layout consideration, and post-layout simulation.
• Work closely with the layout engineer to conduct the physical implementation (layout) and chip floor planning.
• Responsible for post-layout extraction and parasitic analysis.
• Able to work with other designers, Chip Architects, and layout engineers to achieve full-chip integration, place and route, top-level verification, and tape out.

Requirements:

• Ph.D./Master/Degree in Electrical Engineering or Microelectronics with excellent technical background in Analog /Mixed-Signal IC design
• Min. 8 years of experience in CMOS Analog IC design and simulation
• Good design experience in Analog IC design involving two or more of the following blocks: low noise pre-amplifier (low offset, high CMRR, high PSRR and bandwidth up to 600MHz), CMOS Gigahertz Oscillator, switched capacitor circuit, LDO, Differential Amplifier, comparator, Opamp, TIA, and Bandgap Reference and high-frequency full-wave rectifier, etc.
• Good design knowledge in ESD and Latch-Up.
• Experience in isolator devices (capacitive-coupler or optical-coupler) and photodetector-associated circuits will be an added advantage.
• Experience with sigma-delta modulators and IO drivers will be an added advantage.
• Good working knowledge of relevant analog IC design and simulation tools (Spice or its equivalent)
• Basic understanding and can develop simple design-related scripts with some common script languages, such as perl, Tcl, matlab or cadence skill etc.
• A team player with good communication skills.
• Able to work independently, flexibly, and creatively.
