What are the responsibilities and job description for the Layout Designer position at TalentBurst?
Summary
Our teams are responsible for the design of a wide range of RF, analog, and mixed-signal blocks from RF front-end amplifiers to data converters, including baseband filters, baseband and RF phase-locked loops, crystal oscillators, and bandgap references. We are working on new technologies that transform the user experience at the product level, all of which is driven by a world-class vertically integrated engineering team spanning RF / Analog architecture and design, Systems / PHY / MAC architecture and design, VLSI / RTL design and integration, Emulation, Design Verification, Test and Validation, and FW / SW engineering. In this role, you will work closely with the design team to layout and verify custom RF and analog IP for complex SoC products. You will have a critical impact on developing Client's state-of-the-art designs and getting them into hundreds of millions of products.
Description
As an IC Layout Engineer, you will be a key member of our team, researching, designing and bringing the next-generation of wireless technologies into high-volume production in advanced CMOS technology nodes. Responsibilities include : - Detailed transistor-level layout of RF and analog circuit blocks including LNA, mixers, PLL, LO generation, modulators, power amplifiers, Client / DAC, baseband filters, and bandgap / bias / LDO. - Block level layout through full verification flow including extraction, DRC, LVS, and DFM checking. - Co-work with designers on block level floorplanning. - Layout review for power / gnd routing, electromigration, signal path check, differential and IQ matching, and signal coupling.
