Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Design Lead (PMIC)
Role Overview If you are interested in applying for this job, please make sure you meet the following requirements as listed below. As the Design Lead, you will spearhead the design and development of high-performance PMIC products. You will lead a multidisciplinary team to define chip architectures, oversee mixed-signal implementation, and ensure successful tape-outs that meet aggressive performance and schedule targets. Key Responsibilities Technical Leadership: Direct and participate in the full IC development lifecycle, including research, design, and evaluation of PMIC products. Architecture &Specification: Define system-level architectures and write detailed specifications for analog and mixed-signal blocks such as LDOs, Buck/Boost converters, and Battery Management systems. Design & Verification: Lead full-chip integration and top-level simulations; drive verification strategies to ensure design completeness across all process corners. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Digital Design, Verification, Layout, and Test Engineering teams to resolve complex trade-offs between power, area, and performance. Silicon Debug & Characterization: Lead post-silicon validation, bench correlation, and root-cause analysis during debug phases to ensure production readiness. Required Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Electrical Engineering with a focus on power electronics or microelectronics. Experience: 10+ years of relevant IC design experience, with a proven track record of releasing multiple PMIC products into high-volume manufacturing. Technical Expertise: Expertise in analog/mixed-signal blocks: Bandgaps, OP-Amps, high-efficiency switching regulators, and data converters (ADC/DAC). Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre) and modeling languages (Verilog-AMS, SystemVerilog). xywuqvp Process Knowledge: Good understanding of BCD process technologies Strong grasp of semiconductor device physics and design for EMI/EMC and ESD protection. Preferred Skills Familiarity with digital control architectures and industry-standard protocols
