Responsibilities
  • Layout of IC designs for existing technologies (CMOS, BiCMOS, Bipolar etc)
  • Generating and/or supervising the creation of IC layout rules (LVS,DRC,ERC) for technologies in development
  • Evaluating layout requirements for designs targeting different technologies (analog or digital)
  • Documenting critical technology information to be used by Layout team
  • Evaluating and enhancing Place & Route algorithms and processes for complex digital designs
  • Contributing to layout tool suites by supporting and/or developing CAD scripts (Memory cell placement, antenna effect mitigation, etc)
Qualifications
  • BS in electrical engineering or related engineering degree, OR 4 years equivalent experience gained through work projects related to design and drafting without a degree.
  • 5 + years of relevant IC layout work experience. 
  • Fundamental knowledge of Integrated Circuit CAD design.
  • Demonstrated analytical and systematic teamwork approach to troubleshooting.
  • Demonstrated ability to effectively communicate with team members (verbal and written).
  • Due to Government requirements candidates must be a US Citizen or Permanent Resident.

The salary range is: $92,160-$122,112.
