Principal Analog/Mixed-Signal Engineer

About the Role

Lead analog and mixed-signal design for next-generation computing chips at an early-stage company developing probabilistic computing technology. You will help shape chip architecture and work across circuit design, systems, physics, and algorithms.

What You'll Do

• Design analog and mixed-signal blocks, including ADCs, PLLs, bandgaps, regulators, high-speed SerDes, oscillators, and dividers.

• Own substantial parts of chip architecture and potentially lead design for an upcoming chip.

• Perform hands-on layout and design verification, including DRC, ERC, and LVS.

• Collaborate across teams to translate probabilistic computing concepts into silicon implementations.

• Help test and validate fabricated chips in the lab using signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.

What We're Looking For

• Six or more years of analog and mixed-signal IC design experience, including work on blocks such as PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes.

• CMOS circuit design expertise and experience completing multiple tape-outs, including in FinFET or 28nm/65nm processes.

• Proficiency with Cadence simulation, including parasitic extraction, Monte Carlo analysis, and process corners.

• Hands-on layout experience and familiarity with physical verification.

• An MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering with a focus on circuits or IC design.

• Experience across multiple circuit types and willingness to take on practical tasks beyond a narrow specialty.

• Experience in a startup or similarly hands-on environment is valuable.
