Analog Design, Staff Engineer

We are looking for an experienced analog circuit designer to join our team at Synopsys. As a Staff Engineer, you will drive innovation in high-speed analog and mixed-signal design, enabling the development of next-generation connectivity solutions for advanced computing, networking, and AI applications.

Requirements

• M.A.Sc. with 8+ years or PhD with 4+ years of relevant analog/mixed-signal IC design experience
• Deep knowledge and hands-on experience in semiconductor design disciplines such as circuit/system modelling, analog circuit design, digital signal processing, and communications theory
• Proven experience in Multi-Gbps high-speed SerDes architectures (NRZ, PAM4) and design of transmitters (TX), receivers (RX), adaptive equalizers, samplers, drivers, serializers/deserializers, PLLs, DLLs, bandgap references, regulators, oscillators, and ADC/DAC
• Expertise in analog/digital co-design, calibration, adaptation, and timing handoff for optimized circuit performance
• Familiarity with ESD protection and design techniques, custom digital design for high-speed logic paths, and reliability-focused design (EM, IR, aging, self-heating)
• Proficiency in schematic entry, physical layout, and design verification tools, with extensive experience using SPICE simulators and Verilog-A modeling
• Strong understanding of system-level budgeting (jitter, amplitude, noise), signal integrity (packaging, parasitics, crosstalk), and design for reliability
• Excellent communication and documentation skills, with the ability to clearly present technical data and design justifications to both internal and external stakeholders
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to design excellence and continuous learning

Benefits

• Comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits
• Monetary and non-monetary offerings
