Job Vacancy Principal Analog IC Design Engineer - Optical

This is an opportunity for a Principal Analog IC Design Engineer to join a successful and established company involved in the design of high speed Analog and Mixed Signal ICs for the data communications market.

They currently seek an Analog IC design Lead engineer for their site located North of London and in this role you will take a Principal role within a world class IC development team. This team develop transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) and laser driver ICs, that are fundamental to the growth of datacentres, 5G wireless and fibre to the home.

In the role of the Principal Analog IC Design Engineer you will take a leadership role on IC design projects and will be responsible for ensuring the technical aspects of design and layout of commercially successful complete IC designs suitable for production through the whole design lifecycle, including interfacing to other stakeholders in marketing, technical support to applications, validation and test.

Responsibilities include:
• Delivering designs on time to a high quality
• Work closely with other functional groups within the project core team
• Take on lead role for chip development with full ownership of critical subsystems
• Delivering new and innovative solutions
• Communicate and present complex work in a clear and professional manner
• Writing reports and presenting to senior management
• Supervision and mentoring of junior engineers.
A solid understanding is required in Analog/Mixed Signal IC Design in BiCMOS and/or CMOS. Experience is preferable in high speed multi gigabit design in opto electronic products i.e laser drivers or transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). RF (10GHz +) Analog circuit design experience is of interest.

The successful applicant will have 15+ years of experience Analog IC Design preferably for optical applications with experience of low power amplifier design up to 25GHz and beyond. You will have a proven track record of taking high performance, high speed IC designs from concept through to volume production, with a successful commercial outcome. Strong Cadence IC design flow and tools experience is required.

Good communication skills are required along with team spirit and self motivation. A very attractive package will be offered to the successful candidate.
