The only dedicated jobs site for semiconductor manufacturing professionals

Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. is a global leader in the design and manufacture of embedded semiconductors for the automotive, consumer, industrial, networking and wireless markets. Freescale became a publicly traded company in July 2004 after more than 50 years as part of Motorola, Inc before ownership was transferred to Private Equity partners in 2006. The company is based in Austin, Texas and has research and development, manufacturing or sales operations in more than 30 countries.

The Analogue Mixed signal and Power Division within Freescale centers on high performance analogue solutions for the automotive, industrial and consumer electronic industries. AMPD Europe's design center is based in Toulouse, France and is chartered with developing "Smartpower IC" solutions at large level of integration for various analog mixed signal and power applications. It regroups a team of more than 40 people with confirmed experiences in analogue and mixed-signal conception.

Within a project team of 3 to 8 designers, you are responsible for transistor level analogue IC design for the most famous car manufacturers and equipment suppliers having their own culture. You are in charge of translating a specification into an electrical schematic by using existing components of the technology (MOS, bipolar, resistors, capacitors...). You work closely with our customers to found the best compromise of conception all along the project from the definition of the specification to the presentation of the technical solutions to the customer. You build his schematic, then simulates it against all sources of variations. You validate the layout of your circuit. Once the first prototype is available, you measure the performance, support it during the qualification phases  and redesign until the product fits the application. To bring your missions to a successful conclusion, you could draw on the strong collaboration, not only from the team but also from all the technical corporation of Freescale.

According to your profile, scope of your responsibilities may also include leading from a technical stand point a small team of analog designers and layout person during product development.

Engineer in micro electronic applied to analog design, Cadence tools knowledge is a plus as well as tools like Matlab.

You have 5+ years of analog/Mixed mode design experience.

Analog design for basic building blocks - switched-capacitor circuits, data converters, OpAmps, bandgap, oscillator, LDO and switch-mode regulators, output stages.

Proven experience with IC voltages from 1.8 up to 100 Volts, Bipolar and/or BiCMOS technology. History of successful projects with demonstrated technical contribution.

This job requires frequent interaction with our customers and good communication in English is imperative.

In this strong technical environment within these close teams, you can develop your competencies and have the opportunity for career advancement with technical or projects responsibility
