    • Design analog/mixed-signal blocks focusing on transceivers (TIA, TX Driver) and broadband circuits that interact with silicon photonics elements
    • Record design simulations and verifications for formal design reviews
    • Manage block-level floorplan, mask design views, and reviews
    • Conduct post-layout and mixed-signal top-level simulations to confirm integration
    • Define test plans for production and bench-level testing
    • Evaluate circuit performance in the laboratory

    Requirements

    • MS degree with 8+ years of industry experience, OR Ph.D. with 5+ years of industry experience specializing in optical or wireline transceiver design
    • Experience in designing Analog-Front-End blocks such as trans-impedance amplifiers (TIA) and Tx Driver
    • Knowledge of Tx/Rx equalization techniques and circuits
    • Experience with interfacing silicon photonic Mach-Zehnder modulators is a bonus
    • Understanding of SERDES architectures and implementations
    • Familiarity with CMOS device characteristics, noise, mismatch, linearity, and design trade-offs
    • Proficiency with Cadence Design Environment
    • Familiarity with 3D Electro-Magnetic (EM) simulation tools is beneficial
    • Experience in testing and validating high-speed analog/mixed-signal circuits
    • Demonstrated success in delivering analog/mixed-signal IPs with first-time success while adhering to tight schedules
    • Ability to collaborate effectively with individuals across various functional areas

    Benefits

    • Comprehensive Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
    • 401k matching
    • Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
    • Generous Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
