Chip Lead: Analog & Mixed-Signal Layout Engineer

About the role

Senior Analog & Mixed‑Signal Layout Designer responsible for the layout of cutting‑edge, high‑performance, high‑speed CMOS data converters across advanced foundry process nodes (2 nm, 3 nm, 5 nm, 6 nm, 7 nm, 16 nm, and 28 nm).

Responsibilities

• Develop full‑chip and block‑level layouts for high‑speed data converters (ADC, DAC, PLL, SERDES, etc.).
• Lead project execution, defining schedules and methodology.
• Apply analog layout techniques such as common‑centroid, interdigitation, shielding, dummy devices, and EM‑aware routing on critical blocks.
• Ensure compliance with VXL methodology and perform physical verification (DRC, LVS, DFM, ERC, EM, IR, etc.).
• Automate layout tasks using SKILL, Perl, or Python where applicable.
• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams, demonstrating strong social skills and teamwork.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in high‑performance analog layout in advanced FinFET/CMOS process nodes.
• Proven experience with layouts of high‑speed analog blocks such as ADCs, DACs, PLLs, and SERDES.
• Ability to lead projects and mentor junior designers.
• Deep knowledge of analog layout techniques (common centroid, interdigitation, shielding, dummy devices, EM‑aware routing).
• Familiarity with VXL‑compliant methodology.
• Experience with physical verification tools and checks (DRC, LVS, DFM, ERC, EM, IR).
• Layout automation skills using SKILL, Perl, or Python (a plus).
• Self‑starter with strong organizational skills and the ability to define and adhere to schedules.
• Excellent interpersonal skills and a collaborative team mindset.
