Principal Analog IC Designer

A rapidly-growing Dutch Semiconductor company that develops ultra-efficient processors for AI at the edge is looking for a Principal Analog IC Designer to architect and design cutting-edge custom components. The role involves defining and de-risking new concepts and architectures, as well as hands-on design and development activities pre- and post-silicon.

Candidates who need a visa will be considered depending on their suitability and the role in onsite. 30% tax ruling will be considered for candidates from outside of The Netherlands.

In this role, you will :

• Lead the specification, design, optimisation, layout and testing of custom analog components and sub-systems,  interface components such as ADC's and DAC's and bandgaps.
• Work together with neuromorphic and other circuit design experts to develop novel circuit concepts, as well as techniques and methods to optimise circuit behaviour 
• Collaborate with a team of hardware architects, digital design engineers, and application engineers
• Participate in the creation of new IP

 As the successful Principal Analog IC Designer you have the following qualifications and skills:

• PhD/MSc with 7+ years of relevant industrial experience in designing low-power analog circuits
• At least 5+ years of experience in actual ASIC tapeouts of blocks like ADC, PLL, TIA and others in deep-submicron processes (preferably 65nm and below)
• Profound knowledge of low-power techniques, circuit- and transistor-level design, layout and verification
• Exp[erience with lab equipment and proficient in measurement techniques for silicon validation/characterisation
• Knowledge of neuromorphic concepts is a plus
• Cadence Virtuoso, MMSIM/Spectre
• System-level modelling and simulation of analog and mixed-signal circuits (Verilog-AMS/-A)
• MATLAB
