Responsibilities

  • Define ADC and analog subsystem specifications and architectures.
  • Design and verify ADCs and key analog building blocks.
  • Perform transistor-level design and verification across PVT and Monte Carlo conditions.
  • Develop behavioral models and support mixed-signal verification.
  • Work closely with layout, digital, test, product, and applications teams.
  • Lead silicon bring-up, characterization, debug, and correlation to simulation.
  • Drive design reviews, technical innovation, and mentoring of junior engineers.

Requirements

  • MSEE with 8+ years or PhD with 5+ years of analog/mixed-signal IC design experience.
  • Proven track record of delivering ADCs or precision analog IP to silicon.
  • Strong knowledge of ADC architectures (SAR, Delta-Sigma, Pipeline, or Hybrid).
  • Experience with transistor-level design, noise/mismatch analysis, and analog layout considerations.
  • Proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, and AMS simulation tools.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.

Desired Qualifications

  • PMIC, power management, battery management, or sensor-interface experience.
  • Ultra-low-power design expertise.
  • Experience with digital calibration techniques.
  • Silicon validation and lab characterization experience.
  • Technical leadership and mentoring experience.

Benefits

  • Qualcomm is an equal opportunity employer.
  • Qualcomm is committed to providing an accessible process for individuals with disabilities.
  • Qualcomm is committed to making our workplace accessible for individuals with disabilities.
