Principal Analog/Mixed Signal Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE

Lead analog and mixed-signal design for next-generation computing chips at an early-stage AI and computing company. You will collaborate across integrated circuits, systems, physics, and algorithms to turn probabilistic computing concepts into silicon.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design analog and mixed-signal blocks, including ADCs, PLLs, bandgaps, regulators, high-speed SerDes, oscillators, and dividers, for upcoming tape-outs.
• Own major areas of chip architecture and potentially lead the design of a planned chip.
• Perform hands-on layout and design verification, including DRC, ERC, and LVS.
• Work with cross-functional teams to translate computing concepts into silicon implementations.
• Help test and validate fabricated chips using signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Six or more years of analog and mixed-signal IC design experience, including work on blocks such as PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes.
• CMOS circuit design expertise and experience with multiple circuit types and non-trivial designs.
• Multiple completed tape-outs, including experience with FinFET or 28nm/65nm process nodes.
• An MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering focused on circuits or IC design.
• Proficiency with Cadence simulation, including PEX, Monte Carlo, and corner analysis.
• Hands-on layout experience and willingness to contribute beyond a narrow specialty in a startup environment.
• Experience with CMOS, Cadence, FinFET, PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes; Python and C are also relevant.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Base salary range: $200,000 to $325,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
