Job Description
This is an Individual Contributor technical leadership role for a professional
with 15+ years of experience in analog and
power IC development within Renesas's $2.6B Power Business Unit. The role
leads the end-to-end design and
development of power management ICs, including voltage regulators, linear and
switching DC-DC converters and
related components, from specifications through PRA and production readiness.
The successful candidate will collaborate across functions to integrate ICs
into larger systems, deliver successful
silicon and mentor junior engineers. This role is fully focused on product and
technical development and does not
include people-management responsibility.
Essential Functions
Power IC Leadership & Product Execution
• Must have led the development of multiple power ICs with switching
converters, from system-level specifications
through production.
• Identify and resolve technical challenges and risks while ensuring
high-quality silicon and adherence to business
schedules.
• Architect the IC, translate system and chip-top requirements into
block-level specifications, lead integration and
ensure target performance.
• Lead silicon debug, root-cause analysis, design-to-silicon correlation,
qualification support and production readiness.

Converter, Device & Control-Loop Expertise
• Be proficient in complete switching-converter design and associated IPs,
including high-current and high-power
challenges such as noise and power dissipation and their mitigation.
• Demonstrate strong understanding of power-device operation, design
trade-offs, performance and reliability.
• Possess in-depth expertise in control-loop architecture, selection, design
and compensation for target performance.
• Understand commonly used architectures including constant frequency,
constant on/off time and current mode, with
the advantages and limitations of each.
• Bring innovative ideas to meet challenging specifications and improve system
performance.
Analog IP & Protection Blocks
• Lead and guide the development and integration of positive and negative
charge pumps, source-sink LDOs,
ultra-low-power oscillators including relaxation types, temperature sensors,
current-sense circuits, SAR ADCs and
housekeeping blocks.
• Guide protection design for thermal, under-voltage, over-voltage and
over-current conditions.
• Demonstrate expertise in bandgap references, V2I circuits, analog buffers,
op-amps, comparators, high-speed level
shifters and switch-capacitor circuits.
• Provide in-depth guidance on ESD, latch-up and other IC-level issues,
including protection definition for the I/O ring.
Layout, Simulation & Design Methodology
• Guide analog and FET layout development from floor planning through chip-top
completion and verification, including
noise-isolation techniques and performance trade-offs.
• Be conversant with standard design, extraction and simulation flows and
tools, including speed, convergence and
accuracy trade-offs.
• Optimize pre- and post-layout simulation setups, with or without parasitics,
use simulator options effectively and
navigate tool-related challenges.
• Establish design flows, methodologies, checklists and reviews that drive
quality from concept through silicon success.
Technical Leadership & Collaboration
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams to support successful
integration of ICs into larger systems.
• Provide technical expertise and mentorship to freshers and junior engineers,
improving both technical capability and
overall effectiveness.
• Lead groups of engineers through IC-development stages through technical
influence while remaining in an Individual
Contributor role.
• Foster a creative, collaborative and highly productive engineering
environment.
Qualifications
Minimum Requirements
• Bachelor's or master's degree in Electrical Engineering.
• 10+ years of experience in analog circuit design and analog/power IC
development.
• Solid understanding and hands-on design experience in complex analog designs
with full ownership.
• Experience across chip design, verification, silicon validation, debug,
qualification support and taking ICs to
production.
• Proven technical leadership, strong team collaboration and a demonstrated
ability to mentor engineers.
