Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced IC Design Engineer to join our hardware engineering team. The ideal candidate has a strong background in integrated circuit design—from architecture and modeling through implementation, verification, and tape-out. This role will work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-performance, reliable, and manufacturable ICs for next-generation products.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of analog, digital, or mixed-signal integrated circuits from concept through production.
- Define architectural specifications and contribute to system-level design decisions.
- Develop behavioral and structural models using Verilog, VHDL, SystemVerilog, or other relevant HDLs.
- Perform schematic capture, circuit simulation, design optimization, and layout reviews.
- Collaborate with layout engineers to ensure accurate physical implementation and meet performance, area, and power targets.
- Conduct design verification, including simulation, characterization, corner analysis, and validation of silicon results.
- Work with test engineering teams to define test plans, troubleshoot issues, and support ATE testing.
- Document design specifications, methodologies, and results for internal and external stakeholders.
- Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers.
- Support cross-functional collaboration with packaging, reliability, and fabrication partners.
Qualifications
Required:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
- 5+ years of experience in IC design (analog, digital, mixed-signal, or RF).
- Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor, etc.).
- Strong understanding of semiconductor device physics and design methodologies.
- Demonstrated experience taking at least one IC design from concept to tape-out and silicon validation.
- Ability to analyze and debug complex circuit and system-level issues.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
Preferred:
- Experience with high-temperature or Radhard designs.
- Experience in silicon bring-up, post-silicon validation, and production ramp.
- Familiarity with scripting/automation (Python, Perl, TCL, etc.).
- Knowledge of DFT, timing analysis, or signal integrity.
- Prior experience in ASIC, SoC, or sensor IC development.
Benefits:
- Competitive salary based on the candidate’s specific skills, experience, and qualifications.
- In-Office Position with Flex Options
- Benefits package including 401K with company match, employee health plan, paid time off, and holiday.
- Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
