Cisco Analog/mixed-signal IC Modeling Engineer - Acacia in Vancouver, British Columbia
The application window is expected to close on 12/16/24. Job posting may be removed earlier if the position is filled or if a sufficient number of applications are received.
Acacia designs intelligent transceivers using advanced signal processing and photonic integration for the 100G, 400G and 1T bit speed fiber optic transmission market deployed in data center, metro, long-haul and ultra-long haul telecommunication networks.
What you'll do:
As a member of the Mixed Signal Design team, you will be a key member of a small, dynamic IC Design group that develops high speed (>25Gb/s), and high accuracy, analog designs for optical communications products. You will assist in the architecture of behavioural models and IBIS-AMI models of interfaces to productize ultra-deep sub-micron-based CMOS products.
You will lead efforts to develop complex behaviour models of the analog IO development. This will require you to collaborate with packaging and hardware design teams to ensure models accurately represent the device performance. You will also assist applications engineering in model supports.
Who you’ll work with:
You will work with other Acacia mixed-signal, System, and Hardware Engineers to collaborate in order to provide optimized, accurate models that will be used for system and signal integrity investigations. In addition, you will have the opportunity to interact with other Acacia groups including digital/DSP design, package design, and module design. The position will require customer interaction in supporting the released models.
Acacia takes pride in providing and fostering a collaborate environment in order ensure success and personal growth.
Who you are:
You are enthusiastic about modeling high speed AMS circuits and best-in-class products that push the boundaries of what is possible. You are detail oriented, high energy and the driven to get things done and solve difficult problems.
You are capable to figure things out by yourself, but you also participate in our friendly and team-oriented collaboration approach, which means you enjoy learning from your colleagues and letting them learn from you.
You are not shy to always point out how we can be more effective as a team, and you are open to similar suggestions by your team members.

Minimum Requirements:
BSEE degree with 12+ years of experience, or equivalent, an MS degree with 8+ years of experience, or equivalent, or a PhD with 5+ years of experience, or equivalent.
You must have experience in Behaviour modeling and simulation:
High Speed Serial Links utilizing serializers, deserializers, and data converters.
High Performance Output Drivers
High Performance Phase Locked Loops and Phase Interpolators
Programmable Gain Amplifiers
Equalization techniques (CTLE, FFE, DFE)
Clock and Data Recovery
Jitter analysis and attenuation techniques
Preferred Requirements:
Experience with electrical transceiver applications including backplane, optical, and cable communications
Experience and familiarity of IEEE 802.3 and CEI standards using multiple modulation schemes
Experience in signal integrity analysis.
Present examples of leading innovative projects
Publications
Software experience with C/C++, ADS, Matlab/Simulink, Cadence (virtuoso), Spectre/APS/SpectreX, mixed signal simulations in AMS, Python
