Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Analog Mixed Signal DesignGeneral Summary:
Oversees definition, design, verification, and documentation for development of a variety of CMOS mixed analog/digital blocks such as data converters, PLLs, analog/digital filters, low drop out linear voltage regulators, precision references, comparators. Determines architecture design and circuit specifications based on system level requirements. Is actively involved in all aspects of the design from system definition/simulation to circuit design and simulation. Heavy involvement in overseeing layout and silicon evaluation is also expected. Uses design tools such as Cadence ADE, MathWorks MATLAB and others. Provides technical expertise for new initiatives (e.g., 6G, analog design automation).
The responsibilities of this role include:
• Working under some supervision.
• Taking responsibility for own work and making decisions with limited impact; impact of decisions is readily apparent; errors made typically only impact timeline (i.e., require additional time to correct).
• Using verbal and written communication skills to convey basic, routine factual information about day-to-day activities to others who are fully knowledgeable in the subject area.
• Working within prescribed budget and resources.
• Completing most tasks with multiple steps which can be performed in various orders; some planning and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively; mistakes may result in some rework.
• Exercising creativity to draft original documents, imagery, or work products within established guidelines.
• Using deductive problem solving to solve moderately complex problems; most problems have defined processes of diagnosis/detection; some limited data analysis may be required.
• May be solicited during strategic planning period.
The responsibilities of this role do not include:
• Providing supervision/guidance to others.
• Influence over key organizational decisions.
Minimum Qualifications:
• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering with 2+ years of experience with analog or mixed-signal integrated circuit design in nanometer planar CMOS or FinFET and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, or related work experience.OR
Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, or related work experience.
OR
PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 2+ years of experience using one or more design tools (e.g., CADENCE, SPICE, MATLAB, and/or Verilog/VHDL).
Preferred Qualifications:
• PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 2+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal integrated CMOS circuit design for a specific area (e.g., VCO, PLL, and DLL design, Audio CODEC and Class D Audio amplifier design, Delta-Sigma, SAR ADCs, Current-Steering DACs, high speed DDR PHYs, high-speed SERDES).
• Prior experience of designing RFICs
Principal Duties and Responsibilities:
• Uses appropriate tools or databases to contribute to architecture and circuit designs for one or more blocks; participates in design reviews.
• Works with layout teams to oversee block-level layout of one or more blocks.
• Defines and runs own simulations and analyses (e.g., power, performance) on designs; documents and utilizes results to improve and verify designs.
• Programs and runs tests to identify bugs in own work and helps more junior team members with the same; debugs most issues and escalates highly complex issues.
• Consults with internal or external users as directed to assist with implementation and achieve goal alignment.
• Maintains understanding of one's technical domain and builds understanding of other domains to ensure integration with different components.
• Writes detailed technical documentation and design descriptions to guide users and/or customers.
• Collaborates with team members to generate ideas.
