My client is a semiconductor / interconnect company focusing on high-speed, energy-efficient chip-to-chip link solutions. If you love to be part of a high-tech scale-up and are motivated by pushing your limits and challenging the status quo, this is the opportunity for you.

As part of their growth plans they are seeking Analog Design Engineers, based in UK

Key Responsibilities

* Position in design, modeling, and verification of custom analog designs for high-speed serdes transceivers in advanced technology nodes
* Design and verification of analog circuits, following prescribed design and documentation flows, to meet architecture specifications
* If necessary, support and interact with customers on requirements, design specifications, performance results and product delivery
* Support analog IP and chip level integration
* Collaborate with architects, technical leads, analog and digital design, layout, integration, verification, silicon validation and quality teams as needed

Competencies:

* Skilled in the design of high-speed analog serdes circuits including DFT, DFM and ESD protection, with a deep knowledge of transistor and wireline communications fundamentals
* Understanding of layout approaches and design techniques used for high-speed and high precision circuits
* Advanced user of EDA tools for design and verification of analog circuits, preferably using the Cadence Virtuoso environment, including their use for simulation, parasitic extraction, electromagnetic modelling, EM/IR and reliability analysis as well as LVS and DRC
* Self-motivated, a strong sense of ownership and responsibility with good verbal and written communication skills and a team player
* Ability to manage and complete designs to schedule using defined design process flows as well as reporting design status to internal management team

Requirements:

* The candidate should have a Master’s or Ph.D. degree in Electronics or other relevant fields
* 5+ years of experience in analog design and layout of key circuits in multi-gigabit serial data-link transceivers or RF multi tone communications such as equalizers, clock generators, clock and data recovery circuits, TISAR ADC’s, serialisers and output drivers etc.
* Expertise in design and layout of high-speed circuits such as oscillators, phase-locked loops, delay-locked loops, and other fundamental building blocks like biasing, amplifiers, buffers, regulators, filters, ADC, DAC etc.
* Experience with modern semiconductor process technologies, preferably in finFet technology nodes
* Experience using Ocean, MDL or equivalent to automate analog design verification is highly desirable
