MDA Space Farnborough, England, United Kingdom
Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled High-Speed Serdes Analog Design Engineer to join our advanced mixed-signal quality assurance team. You will review the end-to-end design, development, and productization of high-speed SerDes IPs and collaborate with analog, system, digital, HW, and validation engineers from architecture through production release to ensure signal integrity, jitter, and power requirements are met.
Responsibilities
* Review end-to-end design, development, and productization of high-speed SerDes IPs
* Work with analog team, Analog IP vendors, system team, digital engineers, HW engineers, and validation engineers from architecture and feasibility studies through circuit design, simulation, silicon validation, and production release
* Ensure IP meets stringent signal integrity, jitter, and power requirements
Qualifications
* Proven track record in designing and delivering high-speed SerDes IP (multi-gigabit per second links)
* Hands-on experience from concept definition through design, simulation, silicon validation, and production release
* Strong knowledge of analog and mixed-signal circuit design techniques for high-speed I/O, including PLLs, CDRs, equalizers, and drivers
* Proficiency in transistor-level design and simulation using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, HSPICE)
* Ability to model and analyze channel loss, jitter, and signal integrity
* Lab validation experience with high-speed IP, including high-bandwidth oscilloscopes, BERTs, spectrum analyzers, and VNAs
* Knowledge of measurement methodologies for eye diagrams, jitter, BER, and S-parameters
* Familiarity with advanced CMOS or FinFET process technologies (advantage)
* Knowledge of protocol standards such as PCIe or JESD204
* Experience with statistical analysis, yield optimization, and DFM for high-speed analog IP
* Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment
