Principal Digital RTL Engineer

- Architect, design, and optimize high-speed analog/mixed-signal circuits such as SerDes, PLLs/clocking, ADCs/DACs, LDOs, and bias/reference blocks

- Define block-level specifications and trade-offs for performance, power, area, and yield in advanced process nodes

- Drive design methodology, reuse, and best practices across the AMS team

- Develop and execute simulation plans across PVT, Monte Carlo, and reliability corners to ensure first-pass silicon success

- Partner with layout designers to guide floorplanning, matching, parasitics, and physical implementation

- Lead silicon bring-up, characterization, and debug, correlating measured results to models and specifications

- Provide technical direction and mentorship to design engineers, elevating the capabilities of the broader team

- Collaborate cross-functionally with digital, system, product, and packaging teams to deliver integrated solutions

- Contribute to IP roadmaps, design reviews, and continuous improvement of the AMS design flow

- 8+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal integrated circuit design

- Proven track record designing high-speed AMS blocks (e.g., SerDes, PLLs, data converters, references/regulators) through production silicon

- Strong command of transistor-level design, device physics, and analog design fundamentals in advanced CMOS nodes

- Proficiency with industry-standard design and simulation tools (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre) and scripting for design automation

- Demonstrated ability to take designs from specification through tape-out and silicon validation

- Experience with high-speed I/O and SerDes for connectivity standards such as PCIe, Ethernet, or UALink

- Deep understanding of physical-layer signal integrity, channel modeling, and equalization

- Hands-on lab experience with high-speed measurement and characterization equipment

- Familiarity with mixed-signal verification methodologies and analog/digital co-design

- Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, mentorship-driven approach in a fast-paced environment

Salary range is $185,000 to $240,000 depending on experience, level, and business need. This role may be eligible for discretionary bonus, incentives and benefits.
