Analog IC Design Engineer

Analog IC Design Engineer (Precision / BiCMOS)

Fully Remote / Berlin | €110,000 to €140,000 | Bonus and Share Scheme

We are seeking a Senior Precision Analog IC Design Engineer to join a technology leader in silicon photonics-based interconnect solutions (data speeds of 200gb/s to 400gb/s). They company offers cointegrated semiconductor chips for next generation data centres using in-house PIC and EIC design capabilities and large-volume CMOS foundries as manufacturing partners. You’ll be joining a team of highly professional design engineers and managers with many years of experience in bringing state-of-the-art products to the market.

Requirements of the role:

Design Analog Circuits in BiCMOS for OpAmps, Regulators, PVT independent biasing, high-speed circuits, control loops including nested loops (DC offset cancellation, Receive Signal Strength Indicator, Loss of Modulation, Loss of Signal, Squelch, AGC), analog based digital gates, analog muxes and be able to build a chip-level schematic hierarchy in Cadence environment.

Design of auxiliary circuits to interface analog ICs with I2C or SPI type digital control interfaces (using IP-blocks eg. ADC).

Design I/O interfaces with ESD protection.

Develop IC pad frame (pad layout) for various technologies such as die bonding, flip-chip, micro-bumps.

Run regression simulation and meet specs.

Leverage your familiarity with layout techniques for device matching, current density and low parasitics. Check LVS/DRC of your circuits.

Develop Product Specs and block level specs for your circuits by interfacing with marketing.

Support IC Design verification methodology to meet spec compliance matrix.

Interface with foundry and make sure PDK updates are all up to date.

Develop testing strategy for your circuits and sync up with test team.

Support IC to qualification and production. Support Customer request for technical support.

Interface with Cadence and other Vendors to make sure tools are functional and monitor possible upcoming license issues.Salary and Benefits

Basic Salary in the range €110,000 to €140,000 dependent of experience

Fully remote working with option for occasional fully expensed travel to Berlin high-tech HQ (Applications are also welcome from candidates who would rather work onsite or hybrid in Germany)

Company Bonus (based on individual / company related targets e.g. outcomes of wafer run or successful implementation of simulation models)

Employee Share Scheme (6 vesting periods for the next 3 years)

High degree of personal responsibility within a flat company hierarchy

Ambitious internationally expanding team

Various future career opportunities for every career level
