Our team has a deep understanding of all aspects of our MCU and Wireless products, from design to delivering a complete customer friendly system. Silicon Labs EFR32 and EFM32 MCU and Wireless product portfolios both originate from the Norway team. We take great pride in the technology that we deliver. We have a passion for what we do and always seek out better ways to serve our customers.How the Oslo Analog Design Team worksThe EFR32 and EFM32 MCU and Wireless products combine an energy-friendly MCU with a highly integrated radio transceiver. These devices are well suited for a variety of applications across a wide range of RF protocols, digital protocols, and power levels.The Oslo analog design team is, in collaboration with sites in Austin and Singapore, responsible for development of these products. We deliver a low power, simplicity focused platform, which is the base for all Silicon Labs MCUs and Wireless MCUs.We leverage our history of low power, simplicity focused designs to make the best products for the future of the Silicon Labs IoT story.Why this position mattersThe Internet of Things is a fast growing, innovative market. Silicon Labs has invested in many exciting and market-leading highly integrated mixed signal SoCs aimed at IoT. The low power Gecko MCUs and Wireless MCUs that we develop will be deployed in literally millions of products worldwide. The IoT is the future of Silicon Labs and the Oslo Analog Design team is at the forefront of that initiative. As a Senior Analog Design Engineer, you will work with our other analog teams, digital teams, software teams and the marketing department to define and deliver key features within the low power Gecko MCU and Wireless MCU platform.Is this a great match for you?You should be a highly motivated, self-driven and talented engineer with background from Analog Circuit Design. You want to learn and work with the typical IC design flow, all the way from initial idea to implementation.
