Shifting from device engineering to analog design

[sharas]

Hi,

I am fresh EE Bsc. I realy like the analog field and would very much like to find a job as an analog engineer. I studied an analog course in the university that covered OPAMPS, stabilty issues, BGR and noise. I couldn't find a job in my country in the analog field, since every position demands at least 5 years of analog design experience. That's why I had to settle for a position of a device engineer.

If I don't work as an analog designer, how can I possibly get the experience needed?

I understand that many of the forum members are analog designers. What would you recommend me to do in order to become an analog designer?


Thanks in advance,

Sharas

Keep applying for analog IC design jobs. As a device engineer, I imagine you'll just be characterizing devices and tweaking processing parameteres to get certain specs. Try to get transferred to a project that works with analog design in your company...
