Analogue/Mixed-Signal Design and Verification Engineer

You will become part of a highly experienced team of circuit designers where you will work on data converters and other analog/mixed-signal circuits as IP deliveries. You will be involved in all aspects of the data-converter chipsets and their characterization including post-silicon validation. This requires and allows you to understand the overall data converter systems that are implemented for wireless communication systems. You will gain detailed knowledge on a broad range of different IPs to define test plans, define test programs, support test development of IP characterization, and support chip bring-up activities.
