A leading provider of high-performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductor solutions is looking for a Senior or Principal IC Design Engineer to join their advanced connectivity team. This group develops cutting-edge signal conditioning ICs that enable next-generation high-speed copper interconnects for data center, telecom, and networking applications. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in BiCMOS and a proven track record designing adaptive equalizers and re-drivers for high-speed copper cable and board-level applications. This is a hands-on technical role requiring strong circuit-level design experience and full IC tapeout ownership. Key Responsibilities
Design and tapeout BiCMOS ICs for adaptive equalizers and re-drivers in high-speed copper interconnects Develop broadband high-frequency circuits meeting stringent signal integrity and jitter performance targets Own block-level schematic design and verification in Cadence or Synopsys tools, driving designs to production silicon Collaborate with layout and system engineering teams to optimize performance while owning circuit-level implementation Ensure compliance with Ethernet and custom high-speed link standards REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
12–25 years of experience in analog/mixed-signal IC design Strong background in BiCMOS circuit design (Bipolar-only is not sufficient) Proven full IC tapeout experience for high-speed copper applications Expertise in adaptive equalizers and re-drivers Experience with broadband high-frequency designs: Circuits operating at 75–100 GHz Familiarity with E-band (60–70 GHz), W-band (up to 110 GHz), and designs above 25 GHz Knowledge of adaptive equalization techniques (algorithm familiarity is helpful but secondary to circuit design) Proficiency with Cadence or Synopsys design tools Experience with Ethernet SerDes and retimer architectures NICE TO HAVE SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
Prior work on Ethernet PHYs, high-speed re-timers, equalization, or signal conditioning ICs. Experience from companies specializing in copper connectivity (e.g., Broadcom, Marvell, Analog Devices, NXP, etc.). Exposure to both custom and standards-based high-speed link designs Seniority level
Mid-Senior level Employment type
