Summary Our teams are responsible for the design of a wide range of RF, analog, and mixed-signal blocks from RF front-end amplifiers to data converters, including baseband filters, baseband and RF phase-locked loops, crystal oscillators, and bandgap references. We are working on new technologies that transform the user experience at the product level, all of which is driven by a world-class vertically integrated engineering team spanning RF/Analog architecture and design, Systems/PHY/MAC architecture and design, VLSI/RTL design and integration, Emulation, Design Verification, Test and Validation, and FW/SW engineering. In this role, you will work closely with the design team to layout and verify custom RF and analog IP for complex SoC products. You will have a critical impact on developing Client's state-of-the-art designs and getting them into hundreds of millions of products.

Description As an IC Layout Engineer, you will be a key member of our team, researching, designing and bringing the next-generation of wireless technologies into high-volume production in advanced CMOS technology nodes. Responsibilities include: - Detailed transistor-level layout of RF and analog circuit blocks including LNA, mixers, PLL, LO generation, modulators, power amplifiers, Client/DAC, baseband filters, and bandgap/bias/LDO. - Block level layout through full verification flow including extraction, DRC, LVS, and DFM checking. - Co-work with designers on block level floorplanning. - Layout review for power/gnd routing, electromigration, signal path check, differential and IQ matching, and signal coupling.

Minimum Qualifications • BS and 5+ years of relevant industry experience. • FinFet experience

Preferred Qualifications • Experience in custom RF/analog layout for radio transceivers with extensive knowledge of deep sub-micron CMOS. • Knowledgeable in layout techniques for device matching, minimizing parasitics, RF shielding, and high frequency routing. • Solid understanding of RC delay, electromigration, and coupling. • Understanding of guard rings, DNW, PN junctions, and advanced process effects such as LOD, WPE, etc. • High level proficiency in interpretation of CALIBRE DRC, ERC, LVS, etc. in FinFet Technology (7nm experience highly preferred) • Knowledge of CADENCE layout tools. • Excellent communication skills and able to work with cross-functional teams. • Scripting skills in PERL or SKILL are a plus, but not required.
