Principal Analog Design Engineer

Pavia, Italy €85,000 to €110,000 + Premio + SIGNING BONUS + Paid Relocation

This role is a key position within our Optical PHY (CE-OPHY) team , which is part of our Central Engineering division. Our team is at the forefront of designing high-speed and optical transceivers for modern communication infrastructure. This technology is critical for addressing the explosive demand for bandwidth in mega data centers that power social media, video-on-demand, gaming, and other real-time data streams. We are dedicated to developing innovative, first-to-market chips and subsystem solutions that push the boundaries of data rates and power efficiency.
Key Responsibilities
As a Senior Principal Analog Design Engineer, you will be a technical leader responsible for the complete design cycle of complex analog circuits. Your primary responsibilities will include:
- Design & Architecture: You will analyze and interpret block specifications, taking ownership of transistor-level design and selecting the most appropriate topologies.



This role involves designing entire analog macros or IPs from initial concept to final mass production.
- Verification & Validation: You will be responsible for modeling and validating circuit blocks. A crucial part of your role will be to supervise and guide layout activities, providing clear guidelines and conducting rigorous post-layout verifications to ensure design integrity.
- Collaboration & Leadership: This is a highly collaborative role. You will work closely with other engineering teams to enhance existing solutions and participate in cross-functional meetings. A key expectation is to train and mentor junior designers, helping to build the team's collective expertise and technical strength.
- Project Management: You will manage both pre-silicon tasks, such as simulation and modeling, and post-silicon tasks, including lab characterization, debugging, and correlating measurements to simulations, all the way to high-v
