Our team is designing the next generation data converters for our world class test equipment. This is a small team environment in a great location, that has a history of very successful devices that have been designed into our industry leading test and measurement equipment. You’ll find our System on Chip (SoC) solutions embedded in R&S instruments in labs all over the world. Our R&D office is in Hillsboro, west of Portland, Oregon. We have a light, quiet, and modern work environment in a new building. This is a hybrid work position. We believe that close, personal interactions are needed for a successful team but understand that people occasionally need to work from home.
Your tasks
Design and implement high speed (>20GHz) analog/mixed-signal circuits for data converters and RF SOCs in advanced CMOS/BiCMOS technology for integration in high performance mixed-signal SoCs.
Design, simulate, analyze, model, document and communicate integrated circuit IP.
Understand system level design requirements as applied to integrated circuit design.
Characterization and debugging of analog IC designs for testing and measurement equipment.
Meet deadlines and schedules as part of a team
Your Qualifications
MS degree in electrical engineering, with 5+ years of experience in IC Design.
Thorough understanding of detailed analog circuit design and the ability to design independently various functional blocks.
In-depth understanding of BiCMOS and CMOS process technologies
Knowledge in the design and operation of the following analog blocks: low noise high linearity amplifiers and mixers, VCOs, filters, line drivers, power amplifiers, mixed analog / custom digital circuits, basic analog building blocks (op amps, comparators, current sources, current mirrors, voltage references)
Good knowledge of RF engineering, specifically transmission lines theory, matching, RF device models
Good knowledge of high speed data converters principles
Understanding of simulation models, design rules, and verification procedures (DRC/LVS/ERC)
Experience with design details such as: minimizing device mismatch, noise, signal coupling, ESD, circuit stability.
Experience designing analog integrated circuits for a complex mixed signal SoCs from creation into production.
Work effectively in a group setting (share expertise, provide and receive feedback, communicate technical issues, work in a team environment to resolve technical issues)
Communicate effectively with both internal and external customers in English
Tools Requirement: transistor level design tools (Cadence Analog Artist, Explorer), layout tools (Cadence Virtuoso), verification/extraction, experience with documentation, and system level design tools (e.g. Matlab, Verilog-AMS, etc.).
External candidates must be US residents have valid US work authorization to be considered
