Staff Analog IC Design Engineer

Qorvo is seeking a highly skilled Analog Power Design Engineer to join its fast-growing Power Management division, which focuses on innovative solutions in Power Loss Protection, PMICs, Motor Control, and Battery Management. This role involves developing high-performance power management ICs and collaborating with global teams to deliver products that excel in efficiency, reliability, and performance. The position is hybrid, requiring onsite presence in either Richardson, TX, or San Jose, CA.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the design and development of high-performance analog power management ICs, ensuring best-in-class efficiency, power density, and reliability.
• Collaborate with system engineers to define product architecture and specifications, balancing performance, power, and cost requirements.
• Select and implement optimal circuit topologies, ensuring robustness, yield, and manufacturability.
• Conduct transistor-level design, simulation, and validation to meet functional and performance specifications.
• Work closely with layout engineers to optimize floor planning, parasitic, and overall silicon performance.
• Engage with global design teams to align on development strategies and execution plans.
• Partner with test and characterization engineers to define validation methodologies, troubleshoot design issues, and optimize production test strategies.
• Drive technical reviews and documentation, presenting design decisions, analysis, and trade-offs to internal stakeholders.

Qualifications:

• A minimum of a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.
• 8+ years of engineering experience in the semiconductor industry.
• 6+ years of experience in analog and mixed-signal Integrated circuit (IC) design, particularly with DC-DC power converter architectures.
• Ability to communicate highly technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience with Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools such as EMIR tools and parasitic extraction tools.
• Experience with production release of power management ICs.

Skills:

• Proficiency in analog and mixed-signal IC design.
• Strong understanding of DC-DC power converter architectures and control methodologies.
• Familiarity with Cadence Virtuoso, Simplis, and ADS is preferred.
• Hands-on lab experience with high frequency switching power supplies.
