You Are

You see layout as engineering, not just drawing boxes. You catch latch-up and EMIR risks early and know how to fix them. You’re comfortable in Custom Compiler SDL or Virtuoso XL, and you close DRC, LVS, Antenna, and DFM issues without drama. You collaborate well with teams around the world, automate what you can, and write down what works so everyone benefits. When someone asks about ESD, you have answers, not just references.

What You'll Be Doing

• Creating and optimizing analog mixed signal layouts with a focus on device matching, EMIR awareness, and parasitic minimization using Custom Compiler SDL or Virtuoso XL
• Owning top-down macro floor planning and driving layout from concept to sign-off, coordinating with circuit designers and verification teams
• Running and resolving DRC, LVS, Antenna, DFM, and other physical verification checks, making layout choices that reduce rework later
• Performing PERC verification for ESD and latch-up, proactively identifying and fixing risks before tape out
• Collaborating with layout teams in other geographies, sharing best practices, and keeping everyone moving in the same direction
• Documenting new methodologies and improvements in MS Word and PowerPoint, making sure the team can repeat and scale what works
• Automating layout or verification flows with scripts in TCL, Perl, or Python, so the team spends more time solving problems and less time on repetitive tasks

What You'll Need

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science or other related field, with 5+ years of relevant experience.

• Demonstrated expertise in analog mixed signal layout, with hands-on experience in device and signal matching, EMIR, and parasitic optimization

• Proficiency with custom layout tools such as Custom Compiler SDL or Virtuoso XL

• Solid command of DRC, LVS, Antenna, DFM, and other physical verification processes

• Experience with PERC verification for ESD and latch-up; you know what to look for and how to fix it

• Ability to own and floorplan top-down macros, coordinating layout from high-level architecture to final sign-off

• Scripting skills in TCL, Perl, or Python to automate tasks and improve flows is a plus

• Experience creating clear methodology documentation using MS Word and PowerPoint is a plus

The Impact You Will Have

• Deliver layouts that pass verification the first time, cutting down on iteration cycles and speeding up tape out schedules for the whole team
• Raise the bar on device matching, EMIR, and parasitic performance, improving silicon yield and reliability for every project you touch
• Reduce post-layout surprises by building ESD and latch-up protection into the design, not after the fact
• Streamline global team workflows by sharing automation and documentation that actually gets used
• Make design reviews easier with clear, actionable documentation and communication
• Push the quality of the overall design process, leaving a trail of improvements and higher standards for others to build on

Who You Are

• You anticipate layout risks and solve them before they become problems in silicon
• You collaborate with global teams and can get alignment even when everyone is remote
• You write down what works, share it, and make sure it’s repeatable for others
• You find ways to automate the drudge work, freeing up time for real engineering
• You explain layout tradeoffs clearly, whether in a meeting or in a slide deck
• You care about the details, but you don’t lose sight of the bigger project goals
