About the Role

We are seeking an experienced AMS (Analog Mixed-Signal) Layout Engineer to join our high-performance design team working on next-generation transceiver IPs targeting the TSMC 3nm technology node.

In this role, you will be responsible for the layout of advanced analog and mixed-signal circuits, ensuring performance, matching, and manufacturability for high-speed transceiver applications in cutting-edge process nodes.

Key Responsibilities

· Perform full-custom layout of high-speed SerDes design such as RX Front-ends, TX Drivers, PLLs, CDRs, bias circuits, ADCs/DACs.

· Handle layout of high-frequency components with emphasis on parasitic minimization, shielding, and routing symmetry.

· Floorplan and assemble top-level analog/mixed-signal and perform layout integration.

· Work closely with circuit designers to understand schematic intent, matching, symmetry, and parasitic sensitivity.

· Ensure high-quality layout practices to meet DRC, LVS, ERC, and EM/IR signoff in advanced FinFET processes (High-end process nodes).

· Perform layout-versus-schematic (LVS), design rule checks (DRC), and parasitic extraction (PEX) using industry-standard tools (Cadence Virtuoso XL, Calibre ...), .

· Support post-layout simulation by extracting and delivering clean parasitic netlists (RC).

· Collaborate with physical design and digital implementation teams on analog-digital boundary integration.

Required Qualifications

· Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, or related field.

· 7+ years of experience in custom analog or mixed-signal layout in deep-submicron or FinFET processes.

· Strong experience with:

o High-speed SerDes designs, PLLs, ADCs/DACs, power management units.

o Handling sensitive matching and noise isolation constraints (e.g., differential pair matching, guard rings).

o Tools like Virtuoso Layout Editor, Calibre, PVS, StarRC, Quantus, or similar.

· Strong understanding of semiconductor physics, CMOS fabrication processes, and advanced process nodes (e.g., 7nm and below).

· In-depth knowledge of layout techniques for minimizing parasitics, noise, and ensuring robust circuit operation.

· Experience with layout debugging and tapeout release process.

Pay and Benefits

· Competitive salary.

· Performance bonus each year.

· Long Term Incentive (LTI)

· Flexible working time.

· Health check each year.

· Insurance for engineer and family.

· Lunch Allowance.

· Company trips

We know that creativity and innovation happen more often when teams include diverse ideas, backgrounds, and experiences, and we actively encourage everyone with relevant experience to apply, including people of color, LGBTQ+ and non-binary people, veterans, parents, and individuals with disabilities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
