In short
Qualcomm is looking for an enthusiastic Analog Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer to join their team in Cambridge, UK, focusing on data converters (ADC/DAC) for next-generation IoT products. The role involves designing innovative circuits from architecture to production, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and potentially mentoring junior engineers.
Responsibilities
- Design of data converters (ADCs and DACs) for IoT products.
- Development of test-level interfaces and general analogue circuits.
- Circuit design for radio transceivers, including RF, baseband, and PLLs, with an emphasis on low power design.
- Responsibility for the entire design lifecycle from architecture to final delivery.
- Innovation of new techniques to meet challenging circuit requirements.
- Collaboration with layout engineers on floor planning and layout optimization.
- Working closely with the Radio system team to define system requirements.
- Involvement with cell characterization and ensuring the design meets system requirements through to production.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design experience.
- Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of ASIC design experience.
- PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design experience.
- Ideally 5+ years of industrial experience in analogue/RF IC design with ADC and DAC experience for a Staff level position.
- Solid understanding of analogue/RF circuit design fundamentals.
- Proficiency in analogue design and verification using Cadence tools.
- Proven track record of delivering circuit designs with minimal supervision (required for Staff level).
- Familiarity with system requirements for wireless standards like WLAN, BT, LTE.
- Familiarity with laboratory equipment (spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal generators).
Desired Qualifications
- Additional experience in PLL, VCO, PA, LNA, Mixer, Filter, crystal oscillator is desirable but not essential.
- Experience of taking a design from specification through to production is desirable.
- A solid background in data converter architectures, circuit design and verification, is highly desirable.
- Working knowledge of Verilog-AMS modelling, MATLAB and Python is a bonus.
- The role is also open for recent graduates with a relevant PhD depending upon specialization.
- Enthusiastic about analogue circuit design.
- Enjoy being part of a team developing advanced low power transceiver solutions through to production.
- Ability to work with teams in multi-disciplines to deliver solutions, often with aggressive deadlines.
Benefits
- Opportunity to work on next-generation IoT products.
- Be part of an innovative design team.
- Work with advanced low power transceiver solutions.
- Potential for growth and development within Qualcomm.
