You will own the switching power path from architecture through silicon validation, including gate drivers, H-bridge and BTL output stages, dead-time control, and protection circuits in high-volume production ICs. Products include both monolithic power stages and multi-chip module GaN based solutions.\nResponsibilities\nArchitect and design Class D power output stages: H-bridge and BTL configurations, gate drivers, charge pumps, level shifters, dead-time control, and shoot-through protection\nDesign high-voltage switching circuits with focus on efficiency, thermal performance, and EMI compliance\nDevelop transistor-level schematics in Cadence Virtuoso and verify performance across PVT corners using SPICE simulation\nCollaborate with systems, layout, and applications engineers to meet audio performance specifications (THD+N, IMD, SNR, PSRR, idle channel noise) and power delivery targets\nAnalyze and resolve design issues from prototype through production qualification, including EMI/EMC characterization and LC filter optimization\nContribute to IP reuse strategy and design methodology improvements\nMentor junior engineers on analog design fundamentals, simulation best practices, and design-for-manufacturing techniques\nProvide technical leadership within the design team: guide design reviews, drive architecture decisions, and establish standards for schematic quality and documentation\nChange the world. Love your job.\nDesigners bring semiconductors to life by defining, developing and/or modifying analog and mixed signal electronic parts, components, or integrated circuitry. They work with other designers and the broader R&D and demand creation teams to align on approaches and parameters for a given device, creating block level specifications for the designs. They take the designs through the concept, implementation in schematic and supervising layout, followed by tape out to the fab. They also support silicon validation, test, qualification for reliability, and finally ramp to mass production. Designers also conduct tests and analyze data to ensure the chosen methods are optimal for the defined specifications and reliability requirements.\n Minimum requirements:\nMS in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent)\n5-10+ years of analog/mixed-signal IC design experience\nDemonstrated experience designing power output stages: gate drivers, H-bridge or BTL output configurations, dead-time control, and overcurrent/thermal protection\nStrong understanding of high-voltage switching behavior, GaN/MOSFET/LDMOS device physics, and parasitic-aware design techniques\nExperience with EMI mitigation in switching amplifiers (spread-spectrum modulation, slew-rate control, edge-rate optimization)\nProficiency with Cadence Virtuoso schematic/simulation environment\nExperience taking designs from concept through tapeout and silicon bring-up\nPreferred qualifications:\nSignal-chain design experience: delta-sigma ADCs, DACs, or PWM/PDM switching modulators for audio-band applications\nFamiliarity with sampled-data circuits, loop filter design, and quantizer architectures\nExperience with automotive-qualified products (AEC-Q100)\nPublications or patents in audio IC design or Class D amplifier techniques\nLeadership qualifications\nAbility to establish strong relationships with key stakeholders critical to success, both internally and externally\nAbility to take ownership of everything in your world and drive solutions \nMentorship of Jr engineers\nStrong verbal and written communication skills\nAbility to quickly ramp on new systems and processes\nDemonstrated strong interpersonal, analytical and problem-solving skills\nAbility to work in teams and collaborate effectively with people in different functions\nAbility to take the initiative and drive for results\nStrong time management skills that enable on-time project delivery","description_format":"text","description_chars":3956,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Processors,
