Principal Analog/Mixed Signal Engineer
True Talent Solutions Partners · Boston · onsite
ABOUT THE ROLE
Lead analog and mixed-signal design for next-generation CMOS computing chips at an early-stage AI hardware company. You will help shape chip architecture and translate probabilistic computing concepts into practical silicon implementations.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design analog and mixed-signal blocks, including ADCs, PLLs, bandgaps, regulators, high-speed SerDes, oscillators, and dividers.
- Own substantial portions of chip architecture and potentially lead the design of an upcoming chip.
- Perform hands-on layout and design verification, including DRC, ERC, and LVS.
- Collaborate with IC, systems, physics, and algorithms teams to develop silicon implementations.
- Contribute to fabricated-chip testing and validation using lab equipment such as signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 6 to 20 years of analog and mixed-signal IC design experience, including work on blocks such as PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes.
- An MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering focused on circuits or IC design.
- CMOS circuit design expertise and experience completing multiple tape-outs, including at FinFET or 28nm/65nm nodes.
- Proficiency with Cadence simulation, including PEX, Monte Carlo, and corner analysis.
- Hands-on layout experience and familiarity with design verification flows.
- Experience across multiple circuit types and ability to take on practical tasks beyond a narrow specialty in a startup environment.
