Overview
In this role you will drive advanced mixed-signal IC design for Cirrus Logic’s audio and power management products. You’ll work within a collaborative team to deliver low-power, high-performance circuits across CMOS processes, from specification through production. You will model, simulate, validate, and optimize both analog and mixed-signal blocks, coordinating with layout and post-silicon teams to ensure robust bring-up and production success. This position offers the opportunity to influence product performance and drive innovation in a leading hardware company.
Responsibilities
- Develop advanced mixed-signal solutions from spec to production
- System-level modeling and analysis using MATLAB, Simulink, and Spectre
- Design and implement high-performance analog and mixed-signal circuits at transistor level
- Lead design integration across system- and block-level implementations
- Oversee layout collaboration with layout engineers
- Post-layout simulations and optimization for performance, area, and power
- Hands-on silicon validation, lab evaluation, and debug for successful bring-up
- Support post-silicon activities including validation and production testing
- Drive continuous improvement by benchmarking against competing solutions and considering commercial constraints
- Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure product delivery from concept to mass production
Key requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering (or equivalent)
