Overview As Principal Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Design Engineer in the Data Center & Energy group, you lead architecture-to-silicon activities for high-reliability mixed-signal SoCs in FinFET nodes. You own analog design decisions across front-ends, regulators, and I/O interfaces, while guiding verification, layout collaboration, and production readiness. You mentor teams and influence roadmaps, IP reuse, and design methodology. This role combines hands-on design with technical leadership in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment to impact data-center solutions at scale.
Compensation / Benefits- medical, vision and dental coverage

Responsibilities- Own analog architecture and circuit design for complex mixed-signal SoC subsystems (precision voltage sensing, ADC front-ends, voltage references, regulators, bias generation, I/O interfaces)
- Transistor-level design and optimization in deep submicron FinFET processes with device-level tradeoffs (leakage, mismatch, reliability)
- Drive system-level partitioning decisions; define and validate specs at block, subsystem, and SoC levels
- Lead mixed-signal verification including behavioral modeling, co-simulation with digital, and corner/Monte Carlo analysis
- Collaborate with layout, DFT, and test engineering to ensure robust DFM and production testability; support silicon bring-up, characterization, and debug
- Provide technical mentorship and design review leadership; establish reusable IP and best practices
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (architecture, digital, firmware, applications, customers) to translate system requirements into robust analog specifications
- Contribute to product roadmaps, patent portfolio, and ADI's analog design methodology improvements
Key requirements- MSEE or PhD preferred; BSEE with 12+ years of analog/mixed-signal IC design experience considered
- Silicon-proven designs in deep submicron FinFET processes; deep understanding of device physics, mismatch, leakage, reliability
