We are seeking an RF and Analog Design Engineer to contribute to the development of multitens of GHz Transimpedance amplifiers TIAs. These optical interface chips are tightly coupled with our highperformance equalizers. The results of these innovative designs have made our client TIAs best in class for coherent longhaul and metro systems as well as PAM4 data center systems.
Hybrid 2 days a week minimum in office
In this role you will be responsible for:
- Active circuit design as well as technical leadership.
- Design leading edge transimpedance amplifier design primarily in Silicon Germanium (SiGe) BiCMOS (Bipolar Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) technology where circuit performance will need to transcend beyond industry leading products.
- Develop transmission line structures and other millimeter wave structures to enable higher performance than would normally be achievable.
- Design of hiperformance broadband analog circuits for optical frontend receivers.
- Design of various other analog circuits including linear regulators AGC loop current/voltage sensors bandgaps etc.
- Develop microarchitecture of major circuit blocks and guide team of designers to implement them. Work with various technologies including SiGe BiCMOS and CMOS.
- Work with other functional groups to facilitate postsilicon validation qualification transition to mass production and customer support.
