A new opportunity for an innovative Analog/RF IC Designer has arisen with a company based in Cambridge that is developing unique technology for the consumer market.  In this role you will be working on Analog/Mixed Signal and RF blocks and will be involved in developing a variety of new circuits, performing evaluations and working closely with other members of the team to reach design objectives. Responsibilities include Analog/Mixed Signal and RF IC Design; concept and feasibility study, schematic capture, IC layout and simulation as well as design verification. You will also be responsible for product design documentation and product characterisation. You will have a strong understanding of designing Analog IC blocks, schematic capture, as well as design verification. Experience with SPICE and Cadence tools is required and an understanding of Digital IC Design experience, including timing closure is desired. Someone who is not afraid to invent new ideas and to look for new ways to do things.  We are not a run of the mill design house, we are inventors of new technology, doing things that no-one has done before.  We need someone who can design without manuals and specifications.
