Job Description
We are seeking an experienced Analog/Mixed-Signal Layout Engineer to drive the physical layout of high-performance ADC/DAC, SerDes, and mixed-signal circuits in advanced technology nodes (2nm–16nm). This role requires deep technical expertise, strong collaboration with circuit design teams, and the ability to deliver high-quality layouts that meet aggressive PPA and manufacturability goals.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the physical layout development for cutting-edge ADC/DAC, SerDes, and analog/mixed-signal circuits across advanced nodes (2nm–16nm).
- Plan and execute layouts for high-speed, low-noise analog blocks with an emphasis on matching, symmetry, signal integrity, and optimal parasitic performance.
- Work closely with circuit designers to meet challenging power, performance, and area (PPA) targets while ensuring DFM compliance.
- Utilize Cadence Virtuoso and Synopsys verification tools for layout creation, verification, and integration.
- Drive floorplanning, block partitioning, power grid design, guard ring placement, and substrate isolation strategies.
- Collaborate with foundry and CAD teams to enhance flows for TSMC FinFET and Gate-All-Around (GAA) nodes.
- Perform and close verification checks, including LVS, DRC, ERC, and parasitic extraction (PEX).
- Support top-level integration and tape-out, ensuring complete, signoff-ready layout data and GDS handoffs.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to layout methodologies, productivity improvements, and automation initiatives.
- 10 years in analog/mixed-signal layout across advanced nodes (2nm–16nm; TSMC preferred).
- Strong layout experience with high-speed ADC/DAC and SerDes, including timing, matching, shielding, and EM.
- Proficient with Cadence Virtuoso (Layout, XL, PVS, Quantus) and full schematic-to-layout flow.
- Hands-on experience with FinFET and/or GAA technologies.
- Solid knowledge of key analog layout structures (current mirrors, differential pairs, capacitors, resistors, guard rings, ESD).
- Proven tape-out experience, including signoff checks and documentation.
- Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Self-driven and effective in fast-paced start-up environments.
- Experience with Calibre tools and scripting (Skill/Python/Tcl).
- Exposure to mixed-signal SoC floorplanning and top-level integration.
