The internationally renowned Mixed Signal Circuit Design group at Technische Universität Berlin conducts fundamental and applied research in the field of energy-efficient microelectronic circuits and systems for mobile, wired, and fiber-optic communication.

About the Position
The internationally renowned Chair of Mixed Signal Circuit Design (MSC) conducts both fundamental and applied research in the field of energy-efficient microelectronic circuits and systems adressing innovative communication systems.

The Mixed Signal Circuit Design Group is offering two challenging and future-oriented research assistant positions. The goal is the development of energy-efficient CMOS and/or SiGe circuits for innovative mobile or optical communication systems with ultra-high data rates. Your research will be part of an ambitious team that combines state-of-the-art approaches from circuit design, optical communication, and AI-based calibration.

Key areas of focus:
- Design of ultra-fast and/or high-precision analog and mixed-signal circuits in CMOS and SiGe technologies
- Monolithic IC Integration
- Scientific and personal exchange with national and international project partners

• teaching and independent research in the field of high-speed integrated CMOS design, e.g., LNAs, TIAs, equalizers, VGAs, ADCs & DACs for future communication systems
• implementation and characterization of your CMOS or SiGe ICs in our advanced high-frequency lab
• publication of your excellent research results at international conferences, workshops, and in peer-reviewed journals

• successfully completed scientific university degree (Master, Diploma or equivalent) in the field of micro- or nanoelectronics, electrical engineering, communications engineering, or related disciplines; excellent degree desired
• strong motivation for academic research is desired
• strong expertise in device and circuit modelling
• solid knowledge in circuit design (analog/digital/mixed-signal), including schematic design, simulation, and layout
• sound experience in high-speed CMOS or SiGe design
• the ability to teach in German and/or in English is required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills
• knowledge in signal processing and communication theory is a plus
• experience with sub-nm CMOS or SiGe technologies and EDA tools (e.g., Cadence, Mentor) (desirable)
• enthusiastic, motivated, and team-oriented personality with the ability to work in an interdisciplinary and international environment (desirable)

• a demanding and highly relevant research project
• close collaboration with other research institutions and industry
• internationally recognized and highly motivated team
• option for remote work (in consultation with your supervisor)
• diverse sports and health programs through the university sports center
• a wide range of professional development opportunities
• a welcoming and collaborative environment with international researchers
