    About the Role

    We are seeking an exceptional Analog/Mixed-Signal Layout Engineer to develop high‑quality layouts for advanced data converters, power management circuits, and other mixed‑signal IP, from initial planning through final database sign‑off. You will work in a fast‑paced environment, partnering closely with circuit designers to optimize matching, minimize noise coupling and supply drops, and manage parasitics to achieve robust, silicon‑proven designs.

    Key Responsibilities:

    Develop block‑level and, where applicable, top‑level layouts for ADCs, DACs, bias circuits, LDOs, and other analog/mixed‑signal IP in deep sub‑micron CMOS and FinFET technologies. Work closely with circuit designers to understand design intent, discuss layout‑related concerns, and co‑create effective solutions. Apply advanced layout techniques to optimize device matching, reduce noise coupling, minimize supply line drops, and control parasitics. Support layout implementation in double/multiple patterning processes and ensure compliance with advanced process rules. Run and interpret EM/IR analysis; implement layout fixes and optimizations based on tool results. Identify and mitigate layout‑dependent effects (LDE) and fix impacted regions to restore expected performance. Generate parasitic extractions (e.g., using StarRC, QRC, or similar tools) and collaborate with designers to analyze performance degradation and root causes. Use Virtuoso L/XL and Calibre to implement layout, run verification, and debug runset violations. Take ownership of assigned blocks, work independently, and deliver high‑quality layouts on schedule. Contribute to improving team layout methodologies and best practices.
