Our client is an exciting tech IC company that has developed a novel chip-based near-field wireless power transfer system. They are integrating the system into solar panels to significantly increase solar power output for residential systems.

Their non-inductive chip-based technology is designed to integrate with existing technologies and hardware to reduce costs, complexity, and power losses, including the elimination of wires, cables, and connectors. This role will work on cutting-edge technology that makes a positive impact on the environment.

They are currently looking for an Analog IC Design Engineer with expertise in one or more of the following areas:

• Power Management

• Analog/Digital smart controller design

• Clock synthesis and synchronization

The mission of this role is the design, verification and validation of power management ICs that optimize and restructure solar panel systems to the world’s largest and fast-growing clean tech platforms. This full-time role is based in Vancouver, BC, and reports directly to the VP, Research & Development.

Requirements:

• Industry design experience in one or several of these areas: Highly efficient DC/DC, DC/AC converters, Clock synthesizers and synchronization, Analog and Digital control loop design for power management, MPPT

• Deep knowledge and hand-on experience in the execution of the full design cycle: architecture choice, transistor-level analog design, calibration and trimming strategy, post-layout simulation of circuits, including Monte Carlo and corner analysis, verification, ESD, DFM and reliability

• Solid fundamentals in transistor level CMOS building-blocks design including: Operational amplifier, rail-to-rail Comparator, Bandgap Reference, Oscillator, Switch capacitor circuit, current mirrors, and LDOs , Precision current sensing techniques

• Experience with design in BCD and CMOS process technologies: Low voltage CMOS (1V-5V), High- Voltage DMOS (28V-50V) and bipolar.

• Understanding of device physics applying to power management, analog, and digital circuit design

Their culture competes for the all-around best start-up environment: creative, educational, challenging, and united towards the positive change that our tech can create. They are looking for passionate, curious and driven folks to come in at an important growth period and help them move the technology forward in large leaps!
