Mixed Signal Design Engineer - Data Converters / DAC / ADC

Mixed Signal Design Engineer - Data Converters / DAC / ADC European Tech Recruit are working closely with an exciting semicon startup, based in Aachen, who are looking for a talented Mixed Signal Design Engineer with experience in Data Converters / DAC / ADC to join their team. In this role you will be involved in the complete development cycle - from specification and architecture to silicon validation - working at the forefront of data converter technology in advanced CMOS processes such as 22FDX and other FinFET/FD-SOI processes. Responsibilities as Mixed Signal Design Engineer:Solid understanding of ADC/DAC architectures, performance metrics, design trade-offs, and criteria for deciding which ADC/DAC designs are suitable for different applications.Solid understanding of and experience with building block circuits for measurement sub-systems such as band-gaps, CMOS bias generators, TIAs, op-amps, filters, switched-cap circuits, LDOs, ADCs, etc.Extensive hands-on experience with EDA design tools such as Cadence Virtuoso, preferably with a history of successful Tapeouts.Develop behavioral models and perform architecture-level trade-off analysis.Expertise in techniques for high-precision circuit design in the presence of large device mismatch and high supply noise.Collaborate closely with layout engineers to ensure layout matching and parasitic-aware design.Experience in C / MATLAB / Verilog modeling.Support silicon bring-up, lab validation, and debugging of first silicon.Document design and verification results, and support IP integration into customer products. Requirements:M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or related field.10+ years of industry experience.Hands-on experience in mixed-signal IC design, particularly ADC/DAC circuits.Experience working with 16nm and below technology. Strong understanding of analog design fundamentals (noise, matching, linearity, stability).Knowledge of system-level integration and SoC interfacing.Proficiency with Cadence design tools, Spectre, and behavioral modeling (Verilog-A, SystemVerilog-AMS).Full-custom analog layout techniques and the ability to take a design and do all the layout extract verification and sign-off.Experience with advanced CMOS process nodes.Good communication skills and ability to work in a collaborative team environment.
