About the role

Renesas is a global semiconductor company whose India for India division creates power and analog ICs, mixed-signal devices, software, and system solutions for local market needs. This principal engineer role owns complex analog and power-management IP, converter architecture, circuit design, verification, and silicon execution from concept through production. The engineer also leads technical reviews, establishes design methodology, and mentors junior and mid-level engineers.

What you will do

  • Define and own the architecture of complex analog and power-management IP used in PMICs, converters, battery-management products, and mixed-signal devices.
  • Design and own blocks such as positive and negative charge pumps, buck converters, source-sink LDOs, ultra-low-power oscillators, temperature sensors, current-sense circuits, SAR ADCs, voltage and current references, op-amps, comparators, analog buffers, level shifters, and protection circuits.
  • Translate product and top-level chip requirements into detailed block specifications, architecture decisions, circuit implementations, and verification plans.
  • Perform block-level error budgeting and system-level trade-off analysis across performance, area, power, cost, robustness, and manufacturability.
  • Independently architect and design complete switching converters including buck, boost, and buck-boost converters, as well as LDOs and point-of-load devices.
  • Demonstrate deep understanding of analog feedback loops, control-loop stability, compensation implementation, and trade-offs across compensation strategies.
  • Evaluate control architectures such as constant-frequency, constant-on-time, constant-off-time, voltage-mode, and current-mode control, and select the appropriate approach for product requirements.
  • Ensure robust converter performance across process, voltage, temperature, load, line, startup, shutdown, and fault conditions.
  • Drive analog verification and simulation strategy across schematic, extracted, pre-layout, and post-layout environments.
  • Optimize simulation setups based on speed, convergence, accuracy, and parasitic conditions, and resolve simulator, model, and tool-related challenges.
  • Own or support silicon validation, characterization, debug, qualification, production readiness, and root-cause analysis for silicon issues.
  • Collaborate with product engineering, test engineering, applications, reliability, and manufacturing teams across the complete product lifecycle.
  • Collaborate closely with layout engineers from floor planning through chip-top completion, extraction, verification, and tape-out.
  • Guide layout trade-offs related to matching, noise, parasitics, isolation, current density, electromigration, IR drop, thermal behavior, and high-current operation.
  • Demonstrate strong understanding of ESD, latch-up, I/O-ring protection, and other IC-level reliability requirements.
  • Review physical implementation and extracted performance to ensure the design meets electrical, yield, reliability, and manufacturability targets.
  • Drive analog design methodology, checklists, design reviews, reusable IP practices, and quality standards from concept through silicon success.
  • Lead technical reviews and provide clear architecture, design, verification, risk, and sign-off assessments to project leadership.
  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through architecture reviews, circuit design, simulation strategy, layout collaboration, and silicon debug.
  • Influence product architecture and technical roadmap decisions through demonstrated technical depth, while operating as a senior individual contributor rather than a formal people manager.

Skills used in this role

What the employer is looking for

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • 15+ years of relevant experience in analog, mixed-signal, or power-management IC design.
  • Demonstrated ownership of complex analog IP, converter subsystems, or complete smaller ICs from architecture through silicon and production.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in PMICs, switching regulators, LDOs, charge pumps, and complex analog IP development.
  • Strong understanding of analog feedback loops, control-loop compensation, stability analysis, and converter-architecture trade-offs.
  • Experience with references, op-amps, comparators, buffers, level shifters, oscillators, sensors, current sensing, ADCs, and protection circuitry.
  • Experience with industry-standard schematic design, simulation, extraction, and post-layout verification flows and tools.
  • Strong understanding of analog layout effects, parasitics, matching, noise, reliability, ESD, latch-up, and IC-level robustness.
  • Experience taking products through design, verification, tape-out, silicon validation, debug, qualification support, and production release.
  • Proven ability to establish design methodology, lead technical reviews, mentor engineers, and influence cross-functional decisions without requiring formal people-management authority.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills across global, multisite, and multicultural teams.
  • Self-driven, results-oriented, and able to deliver high-quality designs under tight schedules with limited supervision.
