Analog Design, Staff Engineer (SerDes)

About the Position

Analog Design, Staff Engineer (SerDes)

Synopsys is the leader in engineering solutions from silicon to systems, enabling customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products. We deliver industry-leading silicon design, IP, simulation and analysis solutions, and design services. We partner closely with our customers across a wide range of industries to maximize their R&D capability and productivity, powering innovation today that ignites the ingenuity of tomorrow.

Responsibilities

• Leading the design and development of advanced analog and mixed-signal circuits, blocks, and subsystems from concept to production
• Developing architecture proposals and evaluating tradeoffs for performance, power, area, and cost using real project constraints
• Running circuit simulation, verification, and optimization with industry-standard tools like SPICE and Spectre
• Owning tape-out activities, silicon bring-up, debug, and hands-on characterization in the lab
• Partnering with layout engineers to ensure your design intent carries through to silicon, with an eye on manufacturability and robustness
• Defining and executing validation plans that actually catch what matters-meeting product requirements, not just checklists
• Reviewing specs, schematics, and lab results, and driving design reviews that raise the technical bar
• Mentoring junior engineers and providing technical leadership across projects and teams
• Working cross-functionally with system, digital, validation, and product teams to resolve issues and keep projects moving
• Driving improvements in design methodologies and best practices so the next project runs smoother than the last

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, microelectronics, Computer Engineering, or related field (master’s or PhD preferred)
• Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in analog and/or mixed-signal IC design
• Deep understanding of transistor-level circuit design and analysis-you know your way around a schematic and simulation results
• Proficiency with simulation tools such as SPICE, Spectre, or equivalent for real-world design and debug
• Practical experience with silicon debug, characterization, and using lab equipment to close the loop between simulation and silicon
• Knowledge of design methodologies for robustness, reliability, and testability-you build designs that survive manufacturing and field stress
• Experience with high-speed interfaces, data converters, regulators, bandgap reference, power management, sensors, or similar analog/mixed-signal blocks is a plus
• Familiarity with deep submicron CMOS processes is helpful
• Experience mentoring engineers or leading technical discussions is valued
• Using AI tools during circuit design and verification processes
• Experience with MIPI cphy/dphy (Mobile Industry Processor Interface), USB (Universal Serial Bus) and other high speed serial links are plus
