Client:
Our client a leading Multinational Semiconductor RF Company requires IC Power Management Lead for role in Dublin City Centre, Ireland.
Role:
You will work with the IC product managers to generate the MRD, PRD and product specification for future low power roadmap products.
You will a Lead a cross-functional team to deliver the next generation IC products from concept to volume production. Support concurrent engineering activities to ensure on-going production of quality products with high yield.
Responsibilities:
Design:
-
Work with the business team on IC requirements and product definition
-
Maintain the IC specification and supporting documentation
-
Drive the IC floorplan, package, IO ring. ESD strategy and top-level power management
-
Work with teams from all disciplines (analog, digital, backend, packaging)
-
Ensure the IC follows best practice for design and testability (DFM, DFT, production test access etc.)
-
Interface with the Physical Designer to hand off the synthesized netlist and constraints, and to iterate through layout, floorplan and design changes needed to close post-layout timing.
-
Ensure that designs follow industry standard design flows, verification techniques,
-
Create the necessary design and product documentation.
-
Drive Design reviews and tapeout signoff meetings for spec compliance
Test:
-
Assist in the development of the IC production test suite (Package test, wafer probe, HTOL, Latch-up, ESD)
-
Execute plans and develops test procedures
-
Actively participate in silicon bring-up and Characterisation testing
Interpersonal:
-
Work with the product managers and the IC design team to ensure the IC design is executed to plan
-
Interact with other engineers in systems, RF/analog subsystems to ensure products are delivered to meet or exceed specifications, on time and where applicable within budget.
-
Support the applications team in solving customer issues and solving and anticipating potential issues.
-
Provide direct customer support on IC related issues.
Main Goals:
-
Technical leadership for the production of high quality mixed signal, low power, ICs using industry best practice methods for design, verification and test
-
Actively support concurrent engineering activities such as continuous yield improvement
-
Actively support applications engineering & sales teams to increase revenue
-
Mentor junior engineers and to share IC skills/experience with other members of the team
Experience:
-
Experience in the complete digital ASIC Design flow, from specification, frontend RTL Design, Verification, STA (static timing analyse) through DFT and physical implementation
-
Experience in the complete analog ASIC Design flow, from specification, schematic entry, layout, post-layout simulation.
-
An excellent understanding of IC design flow and key productivity / performance metrics
-
Have experience in multiple high volume tape-outs?
-
Experience in low power IC modelling and design techniques
-
Experience in IP Evaluation and selection, Analog/Digital partitioning in mixed-signal systems
-
Experienced in die-size estimation and modelling the trade-offs between functionality and die-size and package selection would be an advantage
-
Familiarity with designing on nodes of CMOS 40nm or less
-
Excellent problem solving and analytical skills
-
Excellent communications skills and ability to work on own initiative to come up with innovative solutions
Education:
- Minimum Bachelor of Science in Electronic Engineering or related field and 15+ years of experience in relevant product development.
