The mixed signal can include power management, RF, high voltage as well as high speed convertors allowing us to provide complete solutions to our international customer base. You will join a small team of highly competent engineers that are creating brand new designs to implement the advanced sensing, connectivity and control required to enable modern automotive applications.

You will manage and execute all activities associated with the concept, development and validation of digital IPs integrated in IC used in embedded microcontroller-based system solutions. You will build digital components based on customer application specific requirements or IP standards and support the team to complete the design including top level integration, physical design support (constraints and gate level verification). 

Your main responsibilities will be:

  • Work with Marketing and System teams to define IP specification.
  • Write RTL to implement digital IP based on a design specification.
  • Write implementation and SOC integration plan of the digital IP.
