Job Description
The Principal Analog IC Designer is responsible for the design and development of analog/mixed signal IC circuit blocks from initial concept/specification through final verification of conformance to customer specifications. The Principal Analog IC Designer contributes to the design of long-reach SerDes. The ideal candidate should have experience in CMOS SerDes or high-speed I/O IC, a thorough understanding of jitter and signal equalization techniques, and proficiency in SerDes circuit blocks like Driver, Receiver, Serializer, etc. They should have excellent problem-solving and communication skills, and the ability to work cooperatively in a team environment.
Good To Have:
- Working knowledge of common SerDes standards.
- Proficiency in using CAD tools for circuit simulation and verification.
- Experience with Cadence tools, lab testing, and design at ≥16Gbps and in ≤16nm technologies.
Must Have:
- Minimum 5 years of experience in CMOS SerDes or high-speed I/O IC.
- Thorough understanding of jitter and signal equalization techniques.
- Proficient design experience in SerDes circuit blocks such as Driver, Receiver, Serializer, etc.
At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology.
