- High Speed Serial Links utilizing serializers, deserializers, and data convertors.
- Voltage Regulators
- High Performance Output Drivers
- High Performance Phase Locked Loops
- Efficient clock Transmission/propagation
- Opamps and Programmable Gain Amplifiers
- Equalization techniques

**Preferred qualifications**:

- Experience with FinFET technology
- High-frequency layout experience a plus: Passive component design: inductors, -transformers, transmission-lines, etc.
- Floorplanning (power/ground, digital/analog signal routing, etc.)
- Custom transistor layout

Design for manufacturability:

- Characterization over PVT (monte-carlo analysis)
- Electromigration analysis (using Totem, or equivalent)
- Power and IR drop analysis

Laboratory Validation:

- Solid ESD laboratory practices and methodology
- Construction of test setup to test specific circuitry

Software Experience:

- Experience in the use of high frequency test equipment (BERT, jitter analyzers, VNA/PNA, etc.)
- Cadence (virtuoso)
- Spectre/APS/SpectreX
- Layout validation tools (Virtuoso or Calibre)
- Post-layout Extraction (Virtuoso or Calibre)
- EMX
- Mixed signal simulations in AMS
- Matlab

Possess a track record of innovation. Publications are a plus.
