ANALOG IC DESIGN ENGINEER @ SKALEN SEMI
Skalen Semi is actively seeking an experienced Analog IC Design Engineer to join our growing team. This role supports both large IT and design services clients, as well as fast-growing mid-sized and start-up design services firms. Successful candidates will be instrumental in the design, simulation, and verification of complex analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits. The ideal candidate possesses between 5 and 15 years of relevant industry experience and a deep technical background in critical circuit blocks. Possible work locations include Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Noida, offering flexibility within India.
The responsibilities encompass the entire design lifecycle, from conceptualization and transistor-level implementation through tapeout preparation. Key focus areas include high-speed SerDes, Phase-Locked Loops (PLLs), Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs), Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs), and sophisticated power management circuits. Expertise in low-power design, robust circuit verification using industry-standard EDA tools, and working with deep submicron process technologies (e.g., 7nm, 5nm, 3nm) is essential for this position. The role requires a candidate who can ensure signal and power integrity, minimize jitter and noise, and contribute to system-level validation.
