PLL Analog IC Design Engineer and Technical Leader (W/M) 33

Job function SCALINX’s design team is seeking a dynamic and experienced analog designer who will contribute to the chip/block level architecture definition and implementation. In this role, the candidate will technically drive analog work-packages to deliver a state-of-the-art Integrated Circuit (IC) in deep submicron CMOS technology. 

Work description 

• Focus on the architecture and design of high performance RF PLL. 
• Lead and support analog design work-packages from transistor schematic to GDSII  
• Participate, in close collaboration with the other project technical leaders, to the definition of the IC architecture and verification methodology. 
• Participate to discussion with customer on product architecture and specification definition. 
• Drive the architecture definition of the analog part(s) under his/her responsibilities. 

• Drive, in close collaboration with the analog design and layout team, the specifications of the IC analog sub-blocks to get the best area/power/performance trade-off 
• Work in close collaboration with the layout team to define the floorplan strategy to meet the stringent performance (e.g. speed, matching…) requirements 
• Contribute to the design and verification methodology at chip level and sub-blocks level 
• Define the test strategy of the analog part(s) under his/her responsibilities and drive its implementation 
• Participate to the evaluation of the fabricated IC in our measurement lab 

• Work in team to successfully design a state-of-the art IC 
• Animate design reviews 
• Write documentation in accordance with company Quality Assurance policy 

Qualification and Experience 

• You have a MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering or equivalent and 10+ years of hands-on experience in chip-level and circuit-level architecture definition, transistor level design and verification 
• You have a solid background in low jitter LC based PLL design on integrated circuit for high-speed and high-performance ADC/DAC data converters. 
• You have string experience in PLL design in advanced node CMOS/FDSOI silicon technologies (22nm and beyond) 

• You have a very good vision of the entire analog/mixed-signal IC design flow from transistor schematic to GDSII 
• You have a strong experience in mixed-signal IC project and technical leader role 
• You have an experience in the design of high-speed, low noise and interference robust analog and mixed-signal circuit 
• You have solid knowledge of analog design and simulation tools (Cadence Spectre) 
• You are creative and proactive 

• You demonstrate good analytical and problem-solving skills 
• A strong experience with Cadence design flow is necessary 
• A strong experience with EM tools is necessary 
• You are a team player with a critical attitude and sense of initiative 
• You communicate fluently in English (oral and written)
