Role Summary

AI-generated

A senior engineer on the mixed-signal design team will develop high-speed interfaces and analog circuits for next-generation NVLINK. The role spans design from circuit requirements and schematic through verification, characterization, and post-silicon debugging.

What You'll Do

  • Develop high-speed interfaces and analog circuits, including integrated circuit designs at data rates of 25 Gbps and higher.
  • Define circuit requirements and complete design work across schematic, layout, verification, and characterization.
  • Design deep-submicron CMOS schematics and own circuit architecture, transistor design, and verification.
  • Optimize circuits to meet system-performance specifications.
  • Provide layout engineers with floorplans and guidance for matching and high-speed routing.
  • Support post-silicon bring-up and debugging.
