## Description

Our Hardware Engineers at Synopsys are responsible for designing and developing cutting-edge semiconductor solutions. They work on intricate tasks such as chip architecture, circuit design, and verification to ensure the efficiency and reliability of semiconductor products. These engineers play a crucial role in advancing technology and enabling innovations in various industries.

We're looking for an Analog Circuit Design Engineer to join our team! As an Analog Circuit Design Engineer, you will be responsible for ensuring analog sub-block performance adheres to SerDes standards and architecture document specifications. You will identify and refine circuit implementations to achieve optimal power, area, and performance targets. You will also propose design and verification strategies that efficiently use simulator features to ensure the highest quality design.

Responsibilities:

- Ensuring analog sub-block performance adheres to SerDes standards and architecture document specifications.

- Identifying and refining circuit implementations to achieve optimal power, area, and performance targets.

- Proposing design and verification strategies that efficiently use simulator features to ensure the highest quality design.

- Overseeing physical layout to minimize the effect of parasitics, device stress, and process variation.

- Partnering with digital RTL engineers on the verification of calibration, adaptation, and control algorithms for analog circuits.

- Presenting simulation data for peer and customer review.

- Taking ownership of analog and mixed-signal building blocks that are integrated as part of a larger SerDes design.

- Documenting design features and test plans.

- Consulting on the electrical characterization of your circuit within the SerDes IP product.

Requirements:

- MSc with 4+ years of SerDes/High-Speed analog design experience.

- Familiarity with the transistor-level circuit design of fundamental analog and mixed-signal building blocks.

- Silicon-proven experience implementing circuits for analog and mixed-signal building blocks.

- Design experience with some of the following SerDes sub-circuits: receive equalizers, data samplers, voltage/current-mode drivers, serializers, deserializers, voltage-controlled oscillator, phase interpolator, delay-locked loop, phase-locked loop, bandgap reference, ADC, DAC.

- Experience optimizing CMOS layout to minimize the effect of parasitic resistance and capacitance, and to reduce the effects of local device mismatch and proximity effects.

- Awareness of ESD issues (i.e. circuit techniques, layout) and design for reliability (i.e. electro-migration, IR, aging, etc.).

- Experience with EDA tools for schematic entry, physical layout, and design verification.

- Knowledge of SPICE simulators and simulation methods.

- Knowledgeable in Verilog-A for analog behavioral modeling and simulation-control/data-capture.

- Experience with TCL, Perl, C, Python, MATLAB.

Benefits:

- Comprehensive medical and healthcare plans that work for you and your family.

- In addition to company holidays, we have ETO and FTO Programs.

- Maternity and paternity leave, parenting resources, adoption and surrogacy assistance, and more.

- Purchase Synopsys common stock at a 15% discount, with a 24-month look-back.

- Save for your future with our retirement plans that vary by region and country.

- Competitive salaries.
