Analog Mixed Signal Circuit Design

Job Title: Principal/Sr Principal Circuit Designer – Analog / SERDES (Automotive Transceivers) Location: This position is located in San Jose, CA. This is a hybrid role with 3 days in office and 2 days work from home. This role is NOT open to 100% remote. Role Summary: Seeking a Principal or Senior Principal Circuit Designer to design and deliver high‑speed, high‑linearity analog and SERDES circuit blocks that form the Analog Front End (AFE) of automotive transceivers. This is a hands‑on individual contributor role requiring deep expertise in TX, RX, and clocking circuit design for high‑speed PHYs . The role focuses on block‑level ownership, from specification and transistor‑level design through silicon validation and production support. At the Senior Principal level, the role also provides technical leadership across projects, influencing architecture and mentoring other designers. Job Responsibility: Analog / SERDES Circuit Design · Architect, design, and simulate analog circuit blocks that comprise the AFE, including: o Transmit (TX) circuits: line drivers, pre‑drivers, output stages o Receive (RX) circuits: front‑end amplifiers, CTLE, PGA, slicers o Clocking circuits: PLLs, DLLs, clock distribution, jitter filtering · Translate system‑ and PHY‑level requirements into robust block‑level specifications. · Optimize designs for linearity, noise, jitter, power, area, and robustness. · Perform detailed transistor‑level simulations across PVT corners and full automotive temperature ranges.
