From Altera's job posting
Overview
We are seeking a talented and motivated Analog Circuit Design Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will design, develop, and build analog circuits in advanced process nodes for analog and mixed-signal IPs. You will collaborate with architecture and layout teams to deliver high-performance, robust, and efficient circuit designs.
Design and Development
Design analog circuits in advanced process nodes.
Create and optimize floorplans and review layout work.
Verification and Testing
Develop comprehensive test plans to verify designs against circuit and block microarchitecture specifications.
Evaluate test results, verify functionality, and optimize circuits for power, performance, area, timing, and yield.
Collaboration and Reporting
Collaborate cross-functionally with architecture, layout, and verification teams.
Report design progress, collect and track performance and circuit design issues, and drive resolutions.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or related field.
Strong experience in analog circuit design, simulation, and verification.
Proficiency with industry-standard tools for circuit design and simulation.
Experience in advanced semiconductor process nodes.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in serdes analog design and microarchitecture (Rx/Tx/PLL).
Familiarity with communication protocols such as PCIe and ethernet .
Shift
Shift 1 (India)

HireSetu's note
The level this is pitched at
No years appear anywhere in the posting, but the requirements do the filtering: analog circuit design in advanced semiconductor process nodes, with simulation and verification done properly. That is a skill set built over a few tapeouts, so read this as a mid-level opening, not a graduate one. A bachelor's, master's or PhD in electrical engineering is listed, and for this work the degree is table stakes next to experience with real silicon.
Mixed-signal IP design and floorplanning both appear, which means close work with layout engineers and a lot of time on parasitics, matching and corners. If your analog experience so far is board-level or power electronics, the move into advanced-node IP is a genuine step. Think hard about whether you have worked at those nodes before you apply.
SerDes is doing the talking
The preferred list carries the most information here: SerDes analog design and microarchitecture across Rx, Tx and PLL, plus PCIe and Ethernet. Preferred lines describe what a team actually does, so any of that on your CV belongs at the top of it. Without it, know the building blocks of a high-speed link cold, and bring real numbers from your own blocks, power, jitter, area, whatever you signed off on.
When you talk to them, ask which block or IP you would own and how design, layout and verification split the work across sites. Onsite in Bengaluru on Shift 1 is fixed, so it is fair to ask how the team handles the weeks around a tapeout as well.
