→
Independently execute layout design for complex analog and mixed-signal blocks, from initial floorplanning through final physical verification.
→
Collaborate with circuit designers to understand circuit requirements and translate them into effective layout implementations.
→
Develop block-level floorplans and apply layout techniques to optimize matching, parasitics, noise isolation, and area.
→
Perform physical verification, including DRC and LVS, and resolve layout-related issues.
→
Ensure layouts meet project specifications, foundry requirements, and internal design guidelines.
→
Participate in layout reviews and prepare completed layouts for integration and production release.
→
Coordinate with project teams to manage priorities, communicate progress, and meet delivery schedules.
→
Contribute to improvements in layout methodology, tools, and best practices.

Requirements
