Going from strength to strength, they are looking for an additional team member to work closely with both the IC Design and Product Definition teams to provide solutions for the digital elements of mixed signal products. This includes solutions which satisfy test and manufacturing requirements. In addition, you will work in developing behavioural models to help accelerate simulation or form part of system emulation.
