Role Responsibilities

• Design circuit models with abstraction levels ranging from mathematical descriptions to back-extracted circuit performance, enabling trade-offs between simulation time and accuracy.
• Deliver circuit models that generate sub-block circuit specifications from architecture specifications and system models.
• Verify post-layout sub-blocks to ensure they deliver the specified, modeled performance.
• Communicate effectively with technical leads, designers, and the system modeling team throughout the design process to optimize block specifications and performance, ensuring system modeling accuracy.
• Document and present the performance of modeled sub-circuits at various phase gates in the design cycle.
• Document modeling methodology and establish correlations among abstraction levels and with analog circuit simulations.
• Innovate and deliver creative modeling solutions for analog circuits.
• Adopt a rigorous approach focused on delivering high-quality results using Kandou’s design process flow.

Competencies

• Minimum of 7+ years of relevant industry experience in analog IC design and modeling.
• Hands-on experience in analog circuit design and modeling of high-frequency circuits.
• Experience modeling analog circuits using languages such as VerilogA, SystemVerilog, Python, or MATLAB.
• Familiarity with Cadence analog design EDA tools.
• Experience using Ocean and MDL to automate analog simulations and extract circuit performance.
• Strong communication and presentation skills suitable for interfacing with internal and external customers.
• An autonomous self-starter who is also a team player.
• B.Eng. or equivalent (or higher) degree in Electrical Engineering / Microelectronics.
