As of Jun 1, 2026, the average hourly pay for entry level ic layout designer in the United States is $41.30, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $17.55 and $58.41 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Entry Level IC Layout Designer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Entry Level IC Layout Designer, you need a solid understanding of semiconductor fundamentals, circuit design basics, and a relevant degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Proficiency in CAD tools such as Cadence Virtuoso, Mentor Graphics, or Synopsys, along with familiarity with design rule checking (DRC) and layout versus schematic (LVS) verification, is typically required. Strong attention to detail, effective communication, and the ability to collaborate within engineering teams are standout soft skills. These skills ensure accurate and efficient IC layouts, compliance with manufacturing constraints, and smooth teamwork throughout the design process.

What are some common challenges faced by entry-level IC layout designers, and how can they overcome them?

Entry-level IC layout designers often encounter challenges such as understanding complex design rules, adapting to new EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools, and ensuring layouts meet both electrical and manufacturing constraints. Collaborating closely with senior designers and verification engineers is essential to resolve issues quickly and learn best practices. It’s helpful to proactively seek feedback, participate in team reviews, and continuously practice with layout tools to build confidence and expertise in this highly detail-oriented role.

What does an Entry Level IC Layout Designer do?

An Entry Level IC Layout Designer is responsible for creating the physical layout of integrated circuits (ICs) based on circuit schematics and design rules. They use specialized software tools to position transistors, wires, and other components on silicon chips, ensuring that the design meets performance, area, and manufacturing requirements. This role often involves collaborating with circuit designers and verification engineers to optimize layouts for efficiency and manufacturability. Entry level designers typically work under the supervision of more experienced engineers and gain hands-on experience with industry-standard EDA tools. Over time, they develop a deeper understanding of IC design principles and fabrication processes.

Job description

Change the world. Love your job.
In your first year with TI, you will participate in the Career Accelerator Program (CAP), which provides professional and technical training and resources to accelerate your ramp into TI and set you up for long-term career success. Within this program, we also offer function-specific technical training and on-the-job learning opportunities that will encourage you to solve problems through a variety of hands-on, meaningful experiences from your very first day on the job.
As an Analog Design Engineer you will create integrated circuit designs that help bring new TI products to life and make our customers' visions a reality. You'll define, design, model, implement and document analog, digital and/or RF integrated circuits (ICs). And, you'll have the opportunity to work in exciting areas like audio, imaging, high-speed, interface, clocking, medical, high volume linear, automotive, storage, power supply, battery management, linear power and many more. The candidate is expected to work on Optical, Pressure, Humidity & temperature sensing products.
As an Analog Design Engineer, you will help define and then design, simulate, and implement analog integrated circuits in silicon. You'll be working on state-of-the-art wafer processes and learning from and collaborating with industry experts. Understanding the various aspects of product development will help you become a better designer. You will spend time performing typical "front-end" design activities such as designing and drawing the schematics, simulating for functionality and parametric performance, and assisting in the IC layout and then running post-layout extracted simulations. You'll also gain exposure to other "back-end" activities such as bench characterization, final test, and failure analysis. This is a great way to apply knowledge from your circuit design coursework and see how designs progress in the real world.
As part of your job, you will also get exposure to other roles such as: Design Verification & Digital Design through formal learning, projects and on-the-job development experiences that will help you broaden your knowledge and accelerate your growth and success at TI.

As an Analog IC Design Engineer, some of your responsibilities include:

  • Partner with business teams and system engineering to develop mutually agreeable design specifications
  • Provide high-level analysis on chip architecture trade-offs to ensure spec compliance and superior performance at a competitive cost
  • Participate in design reviews and creating the necessary design and product documentation
  • Supervise IC layouts to ensure a high-performance standard
  • Characterize prototypes, developing test specifications and coordinating with test/product engineering to drive product releases
  • Drive behavioral models
     

Put your talent to work with us as an Analog Design Engineer!

Why TI?
  • Engineer your future. We empower our employees to truly own their career and development. Come collaborate with some of the smartest people in the world to shape the future of electronics.
  • We're different by design. Diverse backgrounds and perspectives are what push innovation forward and what make TI stronger. We value each and every voice, and look forward to hearing yours. Meet the people of TI
  • Benefits that benefit you. We offer competitive pay and benefits designed to help you and your family live your best life. Your well-being is important to us.
