Interested candidates please apply :

Key Responsibilities :

Mixed-Signal Design :

Design, simulate, and verify analog / mixed-signal IP blocks (ADC, DAC, PLL, LDO, Bandgap, etc.)

Work on schematic design, layout review, and post-layout simulations.

Support integration of analog IPs into SoC environments.

Collaborate with digital and layout teams to ensure performance, power, and area goals are met.

Perform validation and debugging of mixed-signal circuits during silicon bring-up.

Physical Design :

Own and execute digital block and top-level physical design from synthesis to GDSII.

Perform floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, and timing closure.

Run sign-off checks : DRC, LVS, IR Drop, EM, and STA (Static Timing Analysis).

Collaborate closely with the analog / mixed-signal and verification teams for seamless integration.

Optimize designs for PPA (Power, Performance, Area) and ensure on-time project delivery.
