Layout area and schedule estimation are also a key part of the overall responsibilities for this position. Layout designer will be responsible to make sure that chip/block level layouts meet all design, mask & fab manufacturing requirements.

As a layout engineer in our team you will gain or further enhance your in‑depth knowledge of semiconductor circuit layout including layout optimization techniques necessary for meeting device matching, placement and routing constraints.

Example products we have built are TPS62870, TPS62840, TPS62A01, TPS62810

As an IC Layout Engineer, the key responsibilities are the following but not limited to:

• Layout generation for high‑efficiency, cost‑sensitive, competitive low‑power DC/DC buck switched converters in the personal electronics, industrial and automotive market
• Apart from block- and top‑level layout generation this includes the following tasks:
  • Size optimized floor planning including pinout
  • Power transistor layout (including electromigration checks)
  • Accurate die size estimation
  • Process aware layout (well‑proximity effect, length of diffusion)
  • Floorplan integration into IC lead frame
  • Parasitic aware layout (coupling, lead resistance)
  • Running Design Rule Checks and Layout vs. Schematic verification
  • Execution of tape out process
• Close cooperation with the onsite analog design team as well as offsite program execution and packaging in order to guarantee flawless execution on product development schedules
• Participate in design reviews and create the necessary layout documentation
• Support the layout automation/verification flow development

Qualifications

Preferred qualifications:

• Familiar with analog layout techniques (e.g. matching, shielding, low noise, EM) and digital placement / routing
• Proven experience on block- and top‑level layout generation
• Good knowledge about IC development tools (Cadence environment, Assura LVS / DRC)
• Basic understanding of BCD semiconductor technology, devices, and layout
• Unix and Cadence database management skills
• Shell or other programming language is a plus.
• Open personality with strong verbal and written communication skills
• Highly self‑motivated team player with the ability to collaborate with international and cross‑functional teams
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills
• Ability to take the initiative and drive for results
