Principal staff serdes design engineer

Job Description :

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Principal / Staff Ser Des Design Engineer to join our team developing next-generation high-performance wireline transceivers. You will design high-speed and high-performance AMS circuits for Ser Des PHY IPs implemented in advanced technology nodes.

This role requires strong technical depth in Ser Des architectures, analog / mixed-signal circuit design, and hands-on experience in validating high-speed PHY designs.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop high-speed Ser Des circuits, including TX, RX, PLL, CDR, DLL, VCO, phase interpolators, bias generators, and clocking circuits.
• Evaluate and implement different analog and AMS topologies to achieve best-in-class Power, Performance, and Area (PPA).
• Perform detailed transistor-level circuit simulations, modeling, and analysis using industry-standard tools.
• Work closely with layout engineers to ensure optimum layout practices and physical implementation.
• Drive silicon validation, bring-up, and lab characterization of Ser Des blocks.
• Debug complex AMS issues and provide timely technical resolutions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define specifications and ensure system-level alignment.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to team capability building and knowledge sharing.
