Staff Analog IC Design Engineer (ADC)

Qualcomm's PMIC team is seeking an experienced Analog IC Design Engineer to develop high-performance, low-power ADCs and precision analog circuits for next-generation mobile, XR, wearable, and computing platforms. As a senior technical contributor, you will drive architecture, design, verification, silicon bring-up, and production support of mixed-signal IP integrated into industry-leading power management solutions. Responsibilities • Define ADC and analog subsystem specifications and architectures. • Design and verify ADCs and key analog building blocks, including comparators, amplifiers, references, DACs, oscillators, and clocking circuits. • Perform transistor-level design and verification across PVT and Monte Carlo conditions. • Develop behavioral models and support mixed-signal verification. • Work closely with layout, digital, test, product, and applications teams. • Lead silicon bring-up, characterization, debug, and correlation to simulation. • Drive design reviews, technical innovation, and mentoring of junior engineers. Minimum Qualifications • MSEE with 8+ years or PhD with 5+ years of analog/mixed-signal IC design experience. • Proven track record of delivering ADCs or precision analog IP to silicon. • Strong knowledge of ADC architectures (SAR, Delta-Sigma, Pipeline, or Hybrid). • Experience with transistor-level design, noise/mismatch analysis, and analog layout considerations. • Proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, and AMS simulation tools. • Strong communication and collaboration skills. Preferred Qualifications • PMIC, power management, battery management, or sensor-interface experience. • Ultra-low-power design expertise. • Experience with digital calibration techniques. • Silicon validation and lab characterization experience. • Technical leadership and mentoring experience.
