Principal ASIC Engineer developing mixed-signal ASICs for FMCW LiDAR systems at Voyant Photonics. Driving ASIC development from concept to production with an emphasis on low-noise analog designs.
Responsibilities
Drive mixed-signal ASIC development from concept and architecture through tape-out, silicon bring-up, and production across multiple technology nodes (130 nm and below, including BCD processes).
Design ultra-low-noise analog front ends, including transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) achieving low pA/√Hz noise performance.
Develop mixed-signal circuits including amplifiers, ADCs, DACs, clocking, and power management blocks that interface directly with silicon photonic ICs.
Establish the ASIC development environment: select and deploy EDA tools, define design flows, and set standards for verification and validation.
Collaborate closely with photonics designers, systems engineers, and FPGA/digital teams to drive tight electronic–photonic co-design and system-level optimization.
Define overall ASIC architecture and partitioning between custom silicon and external components; make critical decisions on process, IP, and design-for-manufacturing.
Provide architectural guidance and HDL input to external digital design partners (you will not own advanced-node P&R, but you will define requirements and review implementations).
Hire and mentor a small, high-caliber team of analog and digital IC designers as the program scales.
Requirements
7+ years of experience in analog and mixed-signal IC design with an 80/20 analog-to-digital focus
Proven track record leading multiple tapeouts from concept to production silicon
Deep expertise in low-noise analog circuit design, particularly transimpedance amplifiers or similar precision front-end circuits
Knowledge of test plan development for analog ASICs at OSAT partners
Strong understanding of mixed-signal design: ADCs, DACs, bias circuits, and power management
Experience working in both mature nodes and interfacing with advanced node digital design
Ability to hit the ground running: we need working silicon in 9-12 months
Excellent communication and collaboration skills. you'll work across disciplines daily
