We are looking for a Senior Analog Circuit Design Engineer with strong expertise in Power Management IC (PMIC) design to develop high-performance DC-DC switching converters. The ideal candidate should have hands-on experience designing both high-voltage (up to 40V) and low-voltage (around 5V) switching converters, with a deep understanding of peak current mode control architectures

In this role, you will own complete analog IPs or buck converter top-level designs, perform transistor-level and post-layout simulations, mentor junior engineers, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver robust power management solutions.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

Analog Circuit Design

• Design and develop analog circuits for Power Management IC (PMIC) applications.
• Own the design and development of DC-DC buck converter IPs from specification through verification.
• Design and optimize both high-voltage and low-voltage switching converter architectures.
• Develop and validate peak current mode control circuitry for efficient power conversion.

Simulation & Verification

• Perform transistor-level and top-level circuit simulations to validate design functionality and performance.
• Execute post-layout extraction (PEX) simulations for sub-blocks and complete analog IPs.
• Analyze simulation results and optimize designs for power, efficiency, stability, and performance.
• Support silicon validation by investigating and resolving analog design issues.

Design Ownership

• Take ownership of complete analog IPs or buck converter top-level designs throughout the development lifecycle.
• Implement sub-block enhancements, design modifications, and bug fixes.
• Ensure designs meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.

Technical Leadership

• Mentor and guide junior engineers through design reviews and technical discussions.
• Review schematics, simulation results, and design implementations to maintain high engineering standards.
• Collaborate with layout, verification, and system teams to ensure successful project execution.
• Contribute to design methodology improvements and best practices.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, VLSI, or a related field.
• Strong experience in Analog IC Design with emphasis on Power Management ICs (PMICs)
• Hands-on experience designing DC-DC switching converters, including high-voltage and low-voltage buck converters.
• Strong understanding of Peak Current Mode Control architectures.
• Experience owning analog IP development from design through verification.
• Proficiency in transistor-level simulation and circuit optimization.
• Experience performing PEX simulations at both sub-block and top-level.
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and leadership abilities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with high-voltage switching converters (up to 40V).
• Experience with low-voltage switching converters (around 5V).
• Familiarity with analog layout considerations and post-layout verification.
• Experience mentoring engineers and leading technical reviews.
• Knowledge of mixed-signal integration and PMIC architectures.
