Apple RFIC Layout Engineer 
United States, Texas, Austin 
191849893

Today
You will lay out detailed custom blocks, including floorplanning, placement, routing, and verification for high-frequency RF circuits, verifying and refining layouts through simulation to meet design requirements. You will diagnose sophisticated verification (DRC/LVS) and PDK issues using Cadence and Calibre. Collaboration with engineering design and layout teams will be meaningful to understand design concepts, constraints, and opportunities for improvement. Upon identifying challenges, you will propose solutions to streamline layout tasks, collaborating with teams to specify and finalize methodologies.
  • BS with 3 plus years of industry experience.
  • Deep knowledge of sub-micron CMOS technologies (16nm, 7nm, and beyond) and proficiency with FinFet structures, guard-rings, deep N-wells, and PN junctions are required.
  • Familiarity with sophisticated process effects such as LOD, WPE, and DFM is critical.
  • Understanding trade-offs involving matching, parasitic effects, high-frequency routing, isolation, coupling, shielding, RC delay, EM, IR, ESD, and latch-up is vital.
  • Experiences in sophisticated DRC, ERC, LVS verification, and debugging.
  • Prior experiences in crafting custom layouts at the chip, block, and device levels, particularly for RF high-frequency circuits such as LNAs, mixers, VCOs, and PLLs is a plus.
  • RF experience is helpful.
