About the role

RF/Analog Mixed Signal Design Engineer will work on transistor level IC design implementation for Apple Silicon in different technology nodes, conducting feasibility studies, designing blocks, driving layout and verification, and coordinating test and production validation.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct transistor-level feasibility study for various Analog/Mixed-Signal circuit blocks.
  • Design blocks and document design simulation and verification towards formal design reviews.
  • Drive mask design to implement layout views of designs and drive layout reviews.
  • Run post-layout and top-level simulations to verify top-level integration.
  • Define production and bench-level test plans.
  • Take lab measurements to validate performance compliance with the spec.
  • Drive and review yield/lab test results for bug fixes.

Qualifications

  • BS and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Strong device physics knowledge as it applies to analog IC design.
  • Strong track record of delivering silicon IPs with complete architecture, design, verification and validation experience.
  • Solid understanding/experience in bandgaps, bias, opamps, switched-cap circuits, LDOs, low power oscillators, PLLs, VGAs, feedback and compensation techniques.
  • In-depth knowledge and analytical understanding of mixed-signal design techniques.
  • Experience in understanding top level verification methods incorporating block level schematics and behavioral models.
  • Experience in C/Matlab/VerilogA/Python modeling.
  • Hands-on experience in using spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal and generators to validate analog designs.
  • Good knowledge of high precision techniques in presence of device mismatch
  • Understanding of data converter architectures and design trade-offs.
  • Experience in design for ESD compliance and safety.
  • Experience in chip integration working with Digital Design and Physical Design teams.
  • Experience in ASIC design experience in different application fields.
  • Experience in working with production test engineers to produce test plans and design for testability details.
