• Enhance the performance and reliability of Synopsys' analog and mixed-signal IP portfolio.
• Mentor and inspire the next generation of engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver cutting-edge solutions that meet and exceed customer expectations.

What You’ll Need:

• 8+ years of experience in CMOS analog and mixed-signal circuit design with an MSEE or PhD. Candidates with a Bachelor’s degree and additional experience will also be considered.
• In-depth knowledge of PLL loop operation and design.
• Proven experience in designing SerDes blocks and/or PLL circuit components such as VCOs, charge pumps, regulators, and high-speed dividers.
• Expertise in FINFET and gate-all-around CMOS technologies.
• Proficiency with SPICE-type simulators such as Hspice, Finesim, or PrimeSim.
• Experience with schematic entry tools like Synopsys Custom Designer or similar platforms.
• Familiarity with digital timing tools like PrimeTime and/or Nanotime is a plus.

Who You Are:

• A collaborative team player with excellent communication skills.
• A detail-oriented engineer with a strong analytical mindset.
• A proactive problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced environment.
• A mentor and leader who enjoys sharing knowledge and fostering growth in others.
• A lifelong learner who stays updated on the latest industry trends and technologies.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You will join a dynamic and innovative PLL design team that is at the forefront of analog and mixed-signal design. The team is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology, enabling high-speed SerDes solutions for a wide range of applications. You will work alongside some of the brightest minds in the industry, collaborating to deliver world-class designs that power the future of connectivity.

Rewards and Benefits:
