  • Proven experience working on system and architecture teams to drive block-level and IP requirements.
  • Proven track record working with large teams and guiding junior engineers.
  • Experience with high-speed digital circuits (e.g., serializer, deserializer, counters, dividers, etc.) with solid understanding of digital design concepts.
  • Experience and proven understanding of Tx/Rx equalization techniques and circuits (e.g., CTLE, DFE, de-emphasis) for 20+ Gbps NRZ and PAM applications.
  • Experience with EQ adaptation methods and circuit interactions to improve PPA.
  • Solid understanding of CDR architectures and implementations.
  • Experience in Analog Mixed Signal circuit modeling and performance evaluation (e.g., SystemVerilog, Matlab, Python, VerilogAMS).
  • Hands-on experience to drive lab testing, debug, and data analysis.
  • Hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies, design with FinFet technology.
  • Hands-on experience with AMS IC development from definition to high-volume production including layout supervision, bench evaluation, correlation, and characterization.
