Analog IC Design Engineer

Responsibilities Kforce's client, a growing semiconductor company in the Austin, TX area is seeking an Analog IC Design Engineer to join its engineering team. This is a hands-on individual contributor opportunity focused on the design, development, verification, and silicon validation of innovative analog and mixed-signal IC products. We are working directly with the Hiring Manager on this search. This position is Hybrid Remote. Duties:

• Own analog and mixed-signal circuit designs from initial concept through tape-out and silicon validation
• Design transistor-level analog building blocks, including ADCs/DACs, op-amps, bandgaps, voltage regulators, charge pumps, sense amplifiers, oscillators, I/O circuits, power-supply detectors, and bias/current distribution circuits
• Apply low-power, low-noise, and high-precision analog design techniques, accounting for device mismatch and process variation
• Perform AC, DC, transient, Monte Carlo/statistical, and post-layout simulations
• Support analog verification using SPICE/fast-SPICE, electromigration, IR drop, aging, and related tape-out checks
• Partner with layout engineers through final layout, post-layout verification, and top-level integration
• Collaborate with product and test engineering on test plans, lab results, troubleshooting, silicon characterization, and yield improvement
• Document design, simulation, and verification results for formal design reviews

Requirements

• BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field preferred
• 2 to 5+ years of transistor-level analog IC design experience
• Experience designing analog or mixed-signal circuits for power management, SoCs, SerDes, ADC/DAC, PLL, or related IC products
• Experience with analog building blocks such as op-amps, bandgaps, regulators, charge pumps, ADC/DACs, sense amplifiers, oscillators, I/O, or bias circuits
• Knowledge of low-noise, low-power, and precision analog design techniques
• Strong understanding of transistor operation, analog circuit design, and circuit analysis
• Strong understanding of AC/DC/transient analysis, feedback, compensation, small-signal analysis, and statistical variation
• Strong communication, collaboration, and design ownership skills
• Silicon experience with bias circuit design is preferred
• Understanding of semiconductor device physics is a plus
• High-speed analog experience is a plus, but not required

The Opportunity: This is a strong opportunity for an Analog IC Designer who enjoys hands-on transistor-level design and wants ownership across the full IC development lifecycle, from circuit design and simulation through tape-out, post-layout verification, and silicon validation.

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.

Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.

This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
