Job Description
ST Global is looking for a Lead for layout team to build end to end business solutions and to work with one of the leading semiconductor developer in US.
The ideal candidate must possess excellent background on front end and back end development technologies.
The candidate must possess excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability and collaborate effectively with domain and technical experts in the team.
Lead layout team in completing complex layout for analog/mixed-signal circuits in deep submicron CMOS technologies. Working with the circuit designer or layout lead to plan/schedule work and negotiate any layout trade-offs as needed. Reviewing and analyzing floor-plans and complex circuits with circuit designers.
Running complete set of design verification tools available on AMS blocks.
Interpreting LVS, DRC and ERC reports to find the fastest way to complete layout.
Utilizing advanced CAD tools and mask design knowledge to deliver correct and robust layout that meet stringent matching performance, area and power requirements.
10+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal layout design of deep submicron CMOS circuits and at least 3+ years of recent experience on advance nodes including FinFET technologies, Experience with and knowledge of analog/mixed-signal IP (e.g., SERDES PHY, transmitter and receiver, PLL, DDR PHY, ADCs, DACs, LDOs, etc.) Experience leading complex layout macros during the full design cycle from floorplan analysis to completion of physical design verification Great understanding of CAD flows and tools related to analog/mixed-signal layout design Experience crafting well-matched, low noise, and low power analog blocks consisting of transistors, resistors, capacitors, pad IO's, ESD structures, etc.
High level of proficiency in custom, as well as standard cell-based, floor-planning and hierarchical layout assembly Must understand issues of IR drop, RC delay, electro-migration, self-heating and coupling capacitance
Must recognize failure prone circuit and layout structures, have experience with analog and DFM standard methodologies, and enthusiastically work with circuit designer or layout lead for the best approach to problems
High level of proficiency in interpretation of CALIBRE DRC, ERC, LVS, etc., reports
Knowledge of CADENCE or MENTOR GRAPHICS layout tools.
Excellent interpersonal skills and able to work with remote teams
