Full-TimeRole SummaryWe are looking for an experienced
Analog Layout Engineer
to join our semiconductor design team and work on
high-performance analog and mixed-signal IPs
in advanced CMOS/FinFET technology nodes.The ideal candidate should have strong hands-on experience in
full-custom analog layout
, preferably with
TSMC technology nodes
, and a solid understanding of matching, parasitics, advanced layout techniques, and physical verification.The role involves working closely with analog circuit designers, physical verification, and other cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality, silicon-ready layouts.Key ResponsibilitiesDevelop
full-custom analog and mixed-signal layouts
for complex IC designs.Work on layout of analog building blocks such as:Op-AmpsBandgap referencesLDOs / RegulatorsADC/DAC blocksPLL/DLLCharge PumpsCurrent/Voltage ReferencesHigh-speed I/O and SerDes/DDR PHY circuitsImplement advanced layout techniques including:Common-centroidInterdigitationSymmetryMatchingDummy devicesGuard ringsShieldingSensitive-node isolationPerform
parasitic-aware layout optimization
and minimize the impact of routing and device parasitics on circuit performance.Work closely with analog designers to understand circuit requirements and translate schematics into optimized physical layouts.Perform
DRC, LVS, ERC and other physical verification checks
and debug layout issues.Support
PEX/post-layout simulation
and optimize layouts based on extracted parasitics.Ensure layouts meet requirements for
area, matching, noise, reliability, EM/IR and performance
.Work with advanced
TSMC technology nodes
, including FinFET-based processes.Collaborate with circuit design, verification, reliability,
and physical design teams throughout the development cycle.Support IP integration, top-level layout, tapeout activities, and design documentation.Participate in layout reviews and contribute to improving layout methodologies and productivity.Required QualificationsBachelor's or Master's degree in
Electrical/Electronics Engineering, VLSI, or related field
.4–10 years of hands-on experience in Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Layout
.Strong experience in
full-custom analog layout
