About the role

Principal Analog & Mixed Signal IC Design Engineer Fresh off a successful funding round, this well-capitalized (Series B) start-up is pioneering a new category of high-resolution perception sensing technology for ADAS and autonomous driving.

Location: Boston MA or San Jose CA (hybrid)

Responsibilities:

Lead activities for the design and implementation of high-performance, low-power analog and mixed-signal blocks e.g. bandgap references, temperature sensors, diagnostic ADCs, programmable gain amplifiers, power detectors, bias circuits
Derive block-level specifications from system requirements and contribute to architecture discussions
Own schematic design, pre-/post-layout simulation, and verification using industry-standard EDA tools
Collaborate with layout engineers to ensure robust and efficient physical design
Support silicon bring-up, validation, and debug in the lab

Partner with RF, digital, and systems engineers to enable seamless integration of mixed-signal IP into the overall sensor SoCKey Qualifications 10+ years hands-on experience in analog and mixed-signal IC design, ideally in CMOS technologies at 28nm TSMCExpertise in bandgap design, temperature sensors, biasing circuits, IFM, PGA, power detection, or diagnostic ADCsSolid background in low-power design methodologies and tradeoffs Proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, and AMS simulation tools Experience with lab validation, silicon debug, and characterizationMS or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent

Bonus: prior exposure to sensor products or radar-based systems

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
