In short

Synopsys is looking for an Analog Design Architect to lead the design and implementation of analog macro-level circuits for SerDes IP. The ideal candidate has extensive experience in SerDes/high-speed analog design, CMOS fundamentals, and silicon-proven implementations, with the potential to lead a team.

Responsibilities

  • Own the architecture, design, and implementation of analog macro-level circuits for SerDes IP.
  • Track and review the technical progress of sub-block owners, ensuring alignment with project goals.
  • Interpret SerDes standards and architecture documents to develop detailed analog specifications.
  • Identify and refine circuit implementations, optimizing for power, area, and performance targets.
  • Propose and execute design and verification strategies using advanced simulator features for robust outcomes.
  • Oversee physical layout to minimize parasitics, device stress, and process variation impacts.
  • Collaborate closely with digital RTL engineers on calibration, adaptation, and control algorithms for analog circuits.
  • Present simulation data and technical insights for peer and customer reviews.
  • Mentor and review the progress of junior engineers, fostering growth and technical excellence.
  • Document design features, methodologies, and test plans for internal and customer use.
  • Consult on electrical characterization and testing of circuits within the SerDes IP product portfolio.

Requirements

  • PhD with 10+ years, or MSc with 12+ years of SerDes/high-speed analog design experience.
  • Potential to lead a team in the near future as the team continues to grow.
  • Expertise in transistor-level circuit design and strong CMOS design fundamentals.
  • Silicon-proven experience implementing circuits for TX, RX, and Clock paths within SerDes architectures.
  • Leadership experience in guiding small teams through macro-level design projects.
  • In-depth knowledge of SerDes sub-circuits such as equalizers, samplers, drivers, serializers, deserializers, VCOs, phase interpolators, DLLs, PLLs, bandgap references, ADCs, and DACs.
  • Advanced skills in optimizing FinFET CMOS layouts to minimize parasitics and local device mismatches.
  • Awareness of ESD and reliability issues, including circuit techniques and layout strategies.
  • Proficiency with EDA tools for schematic entry, physical layout, and design verification.
  • Experience with SPICE simulators for detailed circuit analysis.
  • Familiarity with analog behavioral modeling and simulation control using Verilog-A.
  • Programming experience in TCL, Perl, C, Python, and MATLAB for design automation and data analysis.

Desired Qualifications

  • Analytical thinker with exceptional problem-solving skills.
  • Collaborative leader and effective communicator.
  • Detail-oriented and methodical in approach.
  • Adaptable and open to learning new technologies.
  • Mentor and role model for junior engineers.
  • Self-motivated and proactive in driving project outcomes.
  • Committed to excellence, reliability, and innovation.

Benefits

  • Competitive salaries.
  • Comprehensive medical and healthcare plans.
  • ETO and FTO Programs.
  • Maternity and paternity leave, parenting resources, adoption and surrogacy assistance.
  • Retirement Plans.
  • Purchase Synopsys common stock at a 15% discount, with a 24 month look-back.
