Job Description

Design and verify CMOS major analog blocks for custom ASICs to meet performance, area, power, and timescale constraints.

• Take technical leadership of full-chip or major system level blocks and drive projects from specification to production ramp.
• Collaborate with analogue and digital leads to achieve system and design strategy for custom ASICs and drive layout team to high quality physical implementation.
• Produce high quality documentation for designed circuits.
• Work closely with DFT engineers to ensure alignment to DFT strategy and implementation.
• Drive silicon debugging and design characterisation.
• Work with test and product engineers to support test development and ramp to production.
• Take a proactive approach to driving own development plan, utilising team members and internal development opportunities.
• Maintain technical project involvement at principal level and drive consistent methodology engagement across the team.
• Design and verify analog block-level, sub-system, and chip-level circuits to meet the functional and performance specifications of custom mixed-signal ASICs.
• Lead a group of engineers technically to deliver a given block on time.
• Translate customer requirements into design specifications and design solutions.

Qualifications

• Degree level qualification in Electronics/Microelectronics Engineering or a related discipline is required
• 8+ years of relevant analog circuit design experience.
• Hands-on experience in the design and verification of a wide number of analogue circuit blocks such as amplifiers, oscillators, LDOs, comparators, reference/biasing circuits, PMIC, and audio sub-blocks
• Experience in leading the development of switching converter or audio systems.
• Ability to lead a team and deliver chip level solutions through collaboration with analogue, digital, verification, layout, applications, and test teams.
• Experience of chip-level verification including AMS and DMS.
• Strong competence with EDA design tools and the Cadence design environment.
• Enforce common methodology across the whole team.
• Ability to make good judgement in selecting method and techniques for obtaining solutions.
• Able to confidently share own expertise and work with others.
• Ability to propose innovative solutions.
• Ability to make significant contributions to projects, programs, and business initiatives with creativity and ingenuity.
• Ability to support and mentor less experienced team members.
• Cross cultural awareness and sensitivity.
• Results-oriented and able to deliver on-time under tight schedule.
• Ability to work both independently and part of a team.
• Flexibility to undertake occasional international travel at short notice.
• Excellent command of verbal and written English.
• Concise and precise communication and presentation skills within a multi-site and multi-cultural environment.
