Job Description

We are looking for an experienced Sr Staff Mask Design Engineer to join a highly skilled layout organization working on Analog and Mixed‑Signal ICs for Automotive applications.
The role involves defining, developing, and delivering high‑quality, manufacturable IC layouts using industry‑standard technologies and tools.

The successful candidate will contribute at block and top level, support or lead layout activities, collaborate closely with design and cross‑functional teams, and ensure robust physical implementation that meets performance, reliability, and quality requirements.

Job Purpose

The purpose of this role is to deliver robust, high‑quality physical layouts for complex analog and mixed‑signal ICs, ensuring manufacturability, reliability, and on‑time delivery, while contributing to layout methodology, team capability, and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

As a Sr Staff Mask Design Engineer, you will be responsible for:

- Implementing physical layouts for Automotive Business Line products at IP, block, and/or SoC level
- Driving and delivering floorplanning activities for blocks and top‑level designs
- Participating in power supply strategy definition and signal distribution between blocks




- Delivering analog and mixed‑signal layout blocks and contributing to top‑level floorplan strategy
- Applying state‑of‑the‑art layout techniques for device matching, parasitic reduction, ESD protection, latch‑up prevention, and yield optimization
- Executing and signing off physical verification flows, including DRC, LVS, ERC, DFM, and parasitic extraction (PEX)
- Working according to Analog‑on‑Top and Mixed‑Signal‑on‑Top layout methodologies
- Attending relevant project and design reviews, reporting progress, risks, and schedule impacts
- Collaborating closely with design, verification, CAD, and technology teams to minimize rework and resolve physical implementation issues
- Identifying root causes and proposing solutions for issues observed during first silicon or prototype evaluation
- Contributing to design‑for‑quality, ensuring layouts are verified, validated, and suitable for long‑term reliability and zero‑defect goals
- Supporting or leading layout team activities, including task planning, execution, and knowledge sharing
- Participating in and contributing to training activities, technical documentation, and layout guidelines
- Taking a proactive role in personal development, continuous learning, and methodology improvement
