In this senior role, you will be responsible for leading the design and development of high-performance analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for next-generation automotive applications, with a strong focus on electrification systems (EV / HEV battery management, power conversion).
You will play a key role in architecture definition, strategic technical contributions, and mentoring junior designers.
Your Responsibilities
* Lead the design and simulation of analog and mixed-signal blocks such as LDOs, bandgap references, amplifiers, ADCs, DACs, oscillators, charge pumps, and DC / DC converters.
* Drive top-level integration and supervise layout implementation.
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams including digital design, layout, verification, test, and product engineering.
* Define system architecture and develop specifications for complex analog and mixed-signal circuits.
* Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior designers, fostering a culture of innovation and excellence.
* Support silicon validation, characterization, and debugging to ensure designs meet performance, power, area, and reliability targets.
* Contribute to the strategic technical direction and product roadmap for electrification solutions.
Your Profile
* Masters or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
* Minimum 10 years of experience in analog / mixed-signal IC design.
* Strong expertise in CMOS analog design and a deep understanding of semiconductor device physics.
* Proficiency with EDA tools (Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, etc.), scripting (Python, SKILL), and modeling (Matlab).
* Experience with the full design flow: from specification to silicon validation.
* Proven track record of technical leadership and strategic contributions.
* Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
* Fluent in English, both written and spoken.
Preferred Qualifications
* Experience in automotive or power management applications.
* Familiarity with functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262).
* Knowledge of advanced process technologies (e.g., BCD, SOI, HV CMOS).
* Experience with circuits for battery management systems (BMS), DC-DC converters, gate drivers.
What We Offer
* Work on cutting-edge technologies in a global innovative environment.
