IC Analog Designer (W/M)
Are you passionate about pushing the boundaries of low power analog design?
At Dolphin Design, located in the heart of Montreal, we're not just about analog design; we're redefining it. Our team, specializing in sub-threshold design, is a hub for innovation in the field. We're currently seeking an Analog Design Engineer (W/M) who is not just adept in voltage regulators and intricate circuitry, but also someone who seeks to transcend the ordinary in low power analog solutions.
As a dynamic company in the microelectronics field, based in Montreal, we're expanding our team of over 20 designers, with a vision to double in size in the next five years. In anticipation of this growth.
Working with a variety of technologies (bulk-planar, FDSOI) and focusing on markets like IoT and automotive, our goal is to minimize energy consumption while optimizing the silicon area and Bill of Materials.
The Role:
- You perform the design of product blocks as well as product assembly/top level: from specification to product delivery, you create schematics with all simulation environment, to ensure a successful and on-performance product.
- You propose architecture ideas and concepts
- You follow the quality process, and propose improvements to enable quality and productivity.
- You share good practices and design experience.
You're about to become a dolphin..
You have a master’s or PhD degree in a relevant field with at least 3 years of experience in analog design, especially in low power and low leakage design issues it's a plus.
Direct experience with IP, chip, and SoC in analog design is essential. We are specifically looking for candidates who have more than just PCB design experience; your background must include substantial work on microelectronic analog design, at CMOS transistor level.
Experience in power management design is highly desirable.
Your track record should reflect a continuous
adaptation and learning in the ever-evolving field of analog design.
You should be naturally curious, eager to learn, and ready to contribute
positively to a team environment.
Benefits of becoming a Dolphin:
- As part of the Dolphin Semiconductor group (130 employees), you will join a human-sized team of about 20 people based in downtown Montreal. Our new, modern office is conveniently located near the "Du Collège" metro station.
