You are an analog design and simulation expert, bringing with you a curiosity in designing SerDes analog sub-systems and behavioral modeling. You ensure models accurately reflect circuit behavior, collaborating across teams and using automation to raise fidelity. Detail-oriented and proactive, you thrive in fast-paced environments, drive quality, and share best practices to advance team goals.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Collaborate with analog circuit teams for SPICE-vs-model correlation and model quality sign-off.
• Develop/refine behavioral models for SerDes analog blocks (TX/RX, ADC, DAC, etc.).
• Capture impairments and calibration ranges in models for realistic analog-digital handoff.
• Work with digital verification to ensure edge-cases and analog interactions are tested.
• Automate comparison flows to improve model fidelity.
• Embed non-idealities and verify behavioral netlist integrity with RNM teams.

The Impact You Will Have:

• Deliver high-trust models, minimizing bugs and increasing reliability.

• If not already an expert, a desire to develop grow your analog design skills in SerDes analog blocks (TX/RX, ADC, DAC, etc.).
• Ability to model impairments and integrate them into behavioral/RNM models.
• Fluency in SPICE tools and waveform analysis.
• Strong scripting skills (Python, TCL, Perl, C/C++).

Who You Are:

• Collaborative communicator, proactive, detail-oriented, and adaptable.
• Committed to continuous improvement and model quality.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

Join a skilled, cross-functional team dedicated to analog design, modeling, and verification for high-performance connectivity IP. Your expertise will help shape industry-leading products.

Rewards and Benefits:

We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness and financial benefits.  Your recruiter will share more details during the hiring process.
