Job description
About the Role
Join an AI and computing hardware team developing CMOS chips for probabilistic computing. As a Principal Analog/Mixed Signal Engineer, you will lead key circuit and architecture work across upcoming chip designs, helping translate new computing approaches into silicon.
What You'll Do
Lead the design of analog and mixed-signal blocks, including ADCs, PLLs, bandgaps, regulators, SerDes, oscillators, and dividers.
Own major portions of chip architecture and potentially serve as design lead for a planned chip.
Perform hands-on layout and design verification, including DRC, ERC, and LVS.
Collaborate with IC, systems, physics, and algorithms teams to develop silicon implementations.
Support lab testing and validation of fabricated chips using signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
What We're Looking For
Six or more years of analog and mixed-signal IC design experience, with experience in circuit types such as PLLs, ADCs, or SerDes.
Strong CMOS circuit design skills and experience completing multiple tape-outs, including in FinFET or 28nm/65nm processes.
An MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering focused on circuits or IC design.
Proficiency with Cadence simulation, including PEX, Monte Carlo, and corner analysis.
Hands-on layout experience and the ability to work across circuit types and practical design tasks in a collaborative environment.
Experience with circuits beyond compound semiconductors alone; Python or C experience is relevant.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary range: $200,000 to $325,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
Location
Hybrid, with three days per week on-site in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.
