Senior Analog Engineering Manager
Job Description
Technical Leadership (DDR5 / DDR6)
• Own and guide the architecture, design, and implementation of DDR5 PHYs and contribute to DDR6-ready architectures.
• Provide technical oversight for critical analog and mixed-signal blocks, including:
• High-speed TX/RX datapaths
• Advanced equalization, termination, and training circuits
• DLL/PLL-based clocking solutions for multi-GHz operation
• Voltage, reference generation, and power-aware IO design
• Drive closure on timing, jitter, noise, SI/PI, and PVT robustness for aggressive DDR5/DDR6 data rates.
• Ensure compliance with JEDEC DDR5 specifications and alignment with evolving DDR6 standards and industry direction.
• Lead post-silicon bring-up, characterization, debug, and yield improvement, including lab and customer-system correlation.
People & Organization Leadership
• Build, lead, and mentor a team of analog and mixed-signal designers focused on high-speed memory interfaces.
• Set technical direction, performance expectations, and development plans for senior and principal engineers.
• Drive hiring, onboarding, and team scaling aligned with DDR5 production and DDR6 development needs.
• Foster a culture of technical rigor, ownership, and execution excellence.
Program & Cross-Functional Execution
• Own DDR5/DDR6 PHY execution balancing schedule, quality, and risk
• Partner closely with: Digital PHY and controller teams SoC integration and system architecture, Package, PCB, SI/PI, and validation teams, Product, program management, and customers
• Interface with foundries, IP vendors, and standards bodies as needed to ensure successful delivery and future readiness.
Methodology, Quality & Roadmap
• Establish robust design and signoff methodologies for next-generation high-speed PHYs.
• Drive continuous improvement in simulation accuracy, mixed-signal verification, and silicon debug efficiency.
• Lead long-term DDR5 sustainment and DDR6 technology roadmap planning, including architectural trade-offs and scaling strategies.
• Anticipate challenges from data-rate scaling, power efficiency, and advanced process technologies
