Category Engineering Hire Type Employee Job ID 5321 Remote Eligible No Date Posted 23/08/2024 In this role, you will work on the design, development, and refinement of Multi-Gbps NRZ & PAM4 SERDES IP. You will be part of a fast-growing analog and mixed signal R&D team developing high speed (>200Gbps) analog integrated circuits in the latest FinFET process nodes. Working from SerDes standards to block specifications, you quickly identify potential circuit architectures and successful design strategies. You will work with a cross functional design team of analog and digital designers from a wide variety of backgrounds. Our environment is best in class with a full suite of IC design tools supplemented by custom, in-house tools supported by an experienced software/CAD team.

Our Interface IP group in Mississauga, ON is looking for an enthusiastic person to join our team. You will be working with a cross functional team of analog and mixed signal circuit designers from a wide variety of backgrounds on design and methodology. This position requires sound technical experience in full custom analog/mixed-signal circuit design, custom layout, circuit simulations, reliability investigation, post-silicon characterization and a deep understanding of silicon IP design requirements with the ability to drive and train junior engineers to become experts with new methodologies.

Job Responsibilities Review SerDes standards to develop analog top and sub-block specifications.
Ability to drive projects and guide junior engineers.
Exercise independent judgement to identify and refine circuit architectures to achieve optimal power, area and performance targets.
Propose design and verification strategies that efficiently use simulator features to ensure highest quality design.
Oversee physical layout to minimize the effect of parasitics, device stress, and process variation.
Review and present simulation data for peer and customer review.
Define and document design features and test plans.
Propose solutions for post-silicon design updates.

Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or similar technical field
BSEE degree and 10+ years of experience in IC design, or MSEE (or PhD) with 6+ years of experience.
Design experience in high speed PHY
In depth familiarity with transistor level circuit design - sound CMOS design fundamentals
Design experience with one, and familiarity with several other SerDes sub-circuits: receive equalizers,
samplers,
voltage/current-mode drivers,
serializers, deserializers,
voltage-controlled oscillator,
phase mixer,
delay-locked loop, phase locked loop,
bandgap reference,
ADC, DAC.

Familiarity with custom digital design (i.e. high-speed critical paths).
Knowledge of design for reliability (i.e. EM, IR, aging, etc.)
Expertise of layout effects (i.e. matching, reliability, proximity effects, etc.).
Experience with tools for schematic entry, physical layout, and design verification.
Expertise of SPICE simulators and simulation methods.
Knowledgeable in Verilog-A for analog behavioral modeling and simulation-control/data-capture.
Experience with TCL, Perl, C, Python, MATLAB, or other scripting languages is desired
Hands-on experience with physical layout of high-speed circuits is a plus
Good communication and documentation skills
