Senior Digital/Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer

Senior Digital/Mixed-Signal Design Engineer focusing on high-performance analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. Job responsibilities include development and verification of the digital controller for high performance data converters, behavioral modeling, customer support, and to assist with synthesis and place-and-route flow for the digital controller for high performance data converters.

Qualifications

• BS + 4 years or equivalent experience in high-performance digital or mixed-signal IC development in advanced CMOS processes
• Deep knowledge of Verilog RTL coding including state machines, adders, multipliers, combinatorial logic, etc
• Strong understanding of digital design for mixed signal control loops and designing Verilog code to control analog circuits (e.g. digital backend for ADC, digital PLL, etc)
• Familiarity with behavioral Verilog code, including wreals
• Ability to write thorough testbenches
• Preferred knowledge of synthesis tool
• Basic understanding of SystemVerilog and assertions preferred
• Familiarity with place and route tool flow preferred but not mandatory
• Basic understanding of signal processing – MATLAB understanding would be preferred but not mandatory
• Extensive experience with synthesis flow in nano-meter scale CMOS
• Extensive experience with place and route flow
• Deep understanding of constraints, especially for mixed-signal designs, including multiple clock domains and clock gating
• Familiarity with timing closure and static timing analysis tools
• Experience with scan chain vector generation and verification
• Familiarity with Cadence Encounter tool flow preferred but not mandatory
