This is an exciting opportunity to join our team as an Analog IC Design Engineer where you will be contributing in the design and development of the next generation of highly integrated RF ICs using Cadence tools in deep sub-micron CMOS processes. You will use your skills as an Integrated Circuit designer to support exciting and new projects. You will handle complex engineering assignments in collaboration with local and remote RF, HW, System and Test Engineering teams.

If you are an Analog IC Design Engineer with excellent design skills, looking to participate in challenging cutting-edge technology IC design projects at a very pleasant professional working environment, then that is the right place for you!

Location: u-blox Athens Site (Greece)

Your Responsibilities

• Specify and design Analog and RF circuit blocks such as LNAs and Mixers, Frequency Synthesizers (PLLs), Filters, Bandgap, LDO, Power management, DAC and ADC circuits etc.
• Integration of these analog circuits with both RF and digital circuits
• Low voltage and low power CMOS design techniques in nanometer technologies are emphasized
• Full custom layout and physical verification
• Design report writing
• Design of test plans for these circuits both in lab and at final test
• Radio and Analog/RF block characterization in the lab

Your skills and experience

• Degree qualified in Electrical, Electronics or Communications Engineering, Applied Physics or equivalent experience
• Experience in the latest analog CAD flows for CMOS technologies
• Good understanding of analog circuit design techniques, simulator options and capabilities, and IC layout design techniques and verification methodologies
• Experience in any of the following areas: Filters (continuous and discrete-time), Bandgap Reference, voltage/current references, LNAs and Mixers, Frequency Synthesizers (PLLs), LDO, DAC and ADC circuits etc.
• Knowledge of modelling and design of a broad range of analog circuits using VerilogA and/or AMS
• Experience of carrying out analog block characterization in the lab. Automated test experience an advantage
• Understanding of product life cycle of an analog/RFIC from specification to production
• You should be a team player with excellent oral and written communication skills. Ability to work independently and with other engineers distributed across several locations
• Fluent in English writing and speaking

Bonus Point 

• Familiarity with 65nm/28nm/22nm CMOS processes
• Automated lab test experience (using Python)
