Senior Analog IC Design Engineer - PLLs, LDOs

This is a unique opportunity to join a start up company based in London working on Memory technology.

In this role, the Analog IC Design engineer will be working with a small but dynamic team to develop novel memory technology. You will be responsible for the design and development of architecture for bespoke memory chips that will meet the rising technological demand. You will be involved in all aspects of the design process from specification, sign-off to test chip design and foundry process evaluation. The successful engineer will ideally have memory chip and compiler design background (or strong interest in) with the ability to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the challenges related to IP delivery. Experience in PLLs, LDOs and/or DLLs are required for this role.

Responsibilities include:.

• IP development for several CMOS technology nodes 
• Writing detailed architecture specifications 
• Working with sililcon verification and validation teams
• Analog/Mixed Signal Transistor level design, simulation and layout using EDA tools
• Select and integrate IP blocks 
• You will be in charge of the design solution at block to system level

Industry degree qualified, you will have a minimum of 5 years experience in Analog IC Design with experience in; Charge-pump PLL designs, Fractional-N PLLs, Digital PLL techniques, LDO design techniques or DLL design techniques. Experience is ideal in non-volatile memory chip design (FeRAM, MRAM, PCM, ReRAM, or Flash), embedded and/or standalone memory chips. Experience of low power memory chip design in advanced process nodes (FinFETs) is also of interest.

Experience is required in Analog IC Design at transistor level in CMOS, with a strong understanding of Cadence tools for Analog design (ADE Virtuoso, Spectre). Experience in IC Layout at transistor level is required along with an understanding of Analog design flows (schematic, Electrical Spice Simulations, DRC, LVS, EXTRACT, Post Layout simulation).

Excellent interpersonal and communication skills with enthusiasm and the ability to show initiative are important qualities for this role. You will be self-motivated and creative with a passion for achieving success and excellence.

Hybrid working is possible for this role.
