About the company
Our client is a semiconductor technology company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Develop and deliver core analog and mixed-signal circuit blocks for custom silicon, carrying each block from early concept through layout and final verification. The role blends hands-on circuit development, simulation and lab characterization, with close collaboration across several engineering disciplines.
What you'll do
- Develop analog and mixed-signal circuit blocks such as data converters, clock generation, voltage references, regulators, oscillators, dividers and high-speed serial links.
- Take ownership of individual circuit blocks across several chip programs, from initial concept to the final sign-off checks before fabrication.
- Run thorough simulations covering parasitic extraction, statistical variation and process corners.
- Draw layout by hand as part of the development work.
- Help bring up and characterize fabricated mixed-signal circuits in the lab with common bench instruments.
- Work with colleagues in other engineering functions to turn concepts into working silicon.
What we're looking for
- 3 to 5 years of experience building analog or mixed-signal circuits.
- Hands-on experience creating data converters, phase-locked loops, oscillators, regulators or high-speed serial interfaces.
- Experience across multiple tape-outs, ideally in FinFET or 28nm/65nm nodes.
- MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering with an analog/mixed-signal focus.
- A genuine mixed-signal background, not purely analog.
- Proficiency with industry-standard simulation tools, including parasitic extraction, Monte Carlo and corner analysis.
- Willingness to take on necessary circuit work outside your core specialty.
- Based in or willing to relocate to the Boston area for hybrid work.
Bonus points
- Hands-on layout experience beyond layout review.
- Industry experience at an established semiconductor or electronics company.
Location and work model
- Boston, MA, United States
- Hybrid, 3 days per week in office
- Full-time
