About Us

PowerLattice is a well-funded semiconductor startup backed by leading Silicon Valley venture capital firms. We are developing a groundbreaking chiplet solution for a fundamental shift in how high-performance chips are powered, paving the way for the next generation of AI and advanced computing.

About the Role

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Senior or Staff level Analog IC Designer to join our engineering team. In this role, you will design and develop high-quality analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, contributing to fundamental analog building blocks from initial specification through post-layout verification and silicon validation.

You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including layout, verification, and silicon validation, and play a key role in delivering robust, production-ready designs.

Key Responsibilities

Design and develop core analog and mixed-signal circuit blocks, including bandgap references, oscillators, LDOs, op-amps, ADCs, and DACs

Translate system and block-level specifications into robust circuit architectures and implementations

Perform schematic capture, simulation, and optimization to meet performance, power, area, and reliability targets

Provide layout guidance and collaborate closely with layout engineers to ensure design intent is met

Perform post-layout (PEX) simulations and correlations with pre-layout analysis

Participate in design reviews and contribute to clear, thorough design documentation

Support silicon bring-up, block-level evaluation, characterization, and debugging

Apply best practices for analog design, verification, and sign-off

Minimum Qualifications

This role is Hybrid requiring 3 days a week onsite in the office

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or a related field

5+ years of hands-on analog design experience

Strong foundation in analog circuit theory, device physics, and CMOS technologies

Experience designing common analog blocks such as bandgaps, LDOs, oscillators, op-amps, ADCs, and DACs

Proven ability to carry designs from specification through schematic, simulation, layout guidance, and post-layout verification

Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence)

Solid experience with DC, AC, transient, noise, and corner simulations

Working knowledge of reliability, mismatch, and layout-dependent effects

Hands-on laboratory experience, including silicon bring-up, bench characterization, and debugging of analog/mixed-signal ICs

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with deep submicron CMOS process technologies

Familiarity with high-power or high-accuracy analog design techniques

Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment

Compensation & Benefits

Anticipated annual base salary for Member of Technical Staff: $150,000 - $200,000

Stock option grant

Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, and 401(k)
