How does swipeandhired work?

You set your target roles, salary floor and locations once. swipeandhired scores matching postings against your profile, drafts tailored application materials with AI, and either lets you swipe to apply, one tap at a time, or runs fully on autopilot. Every application is tracked in your dashboard.

Which ATS platforms does swipeandhired support?

All of them. swipeandhired applies on every applicant tracking system (ATS) employers use, including Workday, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever, Ashby, Taleo, SuccessFactors, Oracle Cloud and Jobvite, and on a company's own careers page when it uses none of them. You can also bring any posting yourself by link or pasted text.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Anytime, in one click from the billing portal in Settings. Your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period. No retention calls, no dark patterns.

Is my data used for training AI models?

Our platform AI provider may use the content we send it, your profile and the job posting, to improve its models. We never sell your data. If you bring your own AI provider key, requests go directly to your provider under their terms.

Job Description:

Help define the next generation of Microchip's precision analog and mixed-signal products. The Mixed Signal & Linear Division builds the complete precision signal chain: op amps, comparators, voltage references, current-sense amplifiers, ADCs, DACs, and digital potentiometers. One applications team supports all of it.

As a Principal Applications Engineer, you'll drive device specifications, work with design engineering on architecture trade-offs, and bring a system-level view of the customer to products that ship for 10+ years. We're looking for depth in either precision linear/analog or data converters, and an understanding of how the two work together. Depending on your background, your initial focus will be either ADCs (primarily SAR) or linear products such as op amps, comparators, voltage references, and current-sense amplifiers. From there you'll have room to broaden across the signal chain and a clear path to product-family ownership.

The position works closely with product marketing, architecture, design engineering, product engineering, validation, and test throughout the new-product-development lifecycle. It also supports sustaining and lifecycle activities for assigned devices.

Core responsibilities
Definition

Author and maintain device specifications for assigned new products and

derivatives. Drive them through defined milestones, capturing product
goals, key features, specifications, and application requirements.

Translate customer needs, market input, and application use cases into

clear requirements and key specification parameters, including the specs
that can't be compromised.

Work with design engineering during early specification phases to evaluate

architecture trade-offs and refine block-level definitions.

Application evaluation and system enablement

Perform hands-on application-level evaluation of new silicon, testing

device functionality in real-world use cases and reference circuits from
the customer's perspective. Feed findings back to design, validation, and
product teams ahead of release.

Design, review, and bring up reference and evaluation hardware, with a

focus on complete signal-chain solutions (sensor front end, amplification,
reference, conversion).

Develop application collateral: application notes, design guides,

reference designs, and evaluation board documentation. Support
simulation-model releases (SPICE macromodels, behavioral models) for
accuracy in application use.

Write and review datasheets and spec-derived collateral for technical

accuracy and consistency ahead of product release.

Customer and team

Resolve complex, escalated design issues with customers and field

applications teams.

Deliver technical training on product operation and system-level

signal-chain design.

Provide technical guidance to junior applications engineers.

Requirements/Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications

BSEE, MSEE, or PhD with 10+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal applications, design, validation, or systems engineering

Deep hands-on expertise in at least one of the following:

Precision linear/analog: op amps, comparators, voltage references,

current-sense amplifiers. Includes stability and compensation, noise,
offset and drift, input/output stage trade-offs, and capacitive-load
behavior

Data converters: SAR and/or delta-sigma ADCs, DACs. Includes input drive and settling, reference design, anti-aliasing, and converter metrics

(INL/DNL, ENOB, SNR/SFDR/THD)

Working knowledge of the other area as it applies to precision

signal-chain design (for example, how amplifier and reference choices
affect converter performance)

Experience contributing to product requirements or device definition

Solid bench evaluation and debug skills with standard lab instrumentation;

experience with PCB design and hardware bring-up

Proficiency with SPICE simulation and tools for circuit analysis and

design verification

Strong written and verbal communication skills, including technical

documentation such as datasheets and application notes

Able to manage multiple projects, work independently, and collaborate

across teams

Preferred Qualifications

Depth in both linear/analog and data converters

Embedded programming for MCU-based device evaluation over standard serial

interfaces (e.g., SPI, QSPI, I2C, I3C)

Data analysis or lab automation (Python, MATLAB)

Analog mixed-mode simulation (AMS), behavioral modeling, or SPICE

macromodel development

Direct technical engagement with customers (design-in support,

requirements discovery, training)

Published application notes or articles, or experience delivering

technical workshops

Domain knowledge in an end market such as industrial, energy metering,

medical, or automotive

Travel Time:

0% - 25%
