No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Power Design Responsibilities (Core Focus)
- Architect, design, and validate high-performance power-management circuits, including:
- Switching regulators (buck/boost, multi-mode/multi-phase, high-efficiency converters)
- Low-dropout regulators (LDOs) for low-noise and high-PSRR applications
- Charge pumps and related switched-capacitor converter architectures
- Develop closed-loop control architectures, including compensation strategies, loop-stability optimization, and transient-response enhancement.
- Drive innovation in ultra-low-power, fast-transient, and high-efficiency power designs tailored to demanding portable consumer applications.
- Collaborate closely with system architects to define end-to-end power architectures and ensure seamless integration into complex mixed-signal SoCs.
- Lead power block bring-up, silicon debug, and optimization to achieve best-in-class performance across process, voltage, and temperature variations.
Requirements
- Electronic Engineering degree with 10+ years’ experience as an analog/mixed signal IC designer.
- Deep and demonstrable expertise in power-management circuit design, including switching regulators, LDOs, charge pumps, and associated control-loop architectures (required core competency, not optional).
- Design experience with circuits such as amplifiers, DACs, ADCs, bandgaps, bias circuits, etc., is an advantage.
- Strong people leadership, inter-personal, teamwork and communication skills are required to work well within a multi-site cross functional team.
- The successful candidate will be expected to take a full cell or system ownership role and contribute to the development of new products from architecture selection to implementation and debug.
- Experience integrating power-management and analog blocks into complex SoCs or microcontroller systems is a strong advantage.
- Some limited travel should be expected.
