About the Role

SiTime is seeking a Sr. Layout Design Engineer to lead top-level chip-planning and perform block-level custom layouts for CMOS and BiCMOS circuits. This role involves reviewing and coordinating work from offshore designers, training junior engineers, and contributing to the development of standard layout methodologies and quality procedures.

Responsibilities

  • Lead top-level chip-planning and perform functional-block-level, block-level, sub-block level, leaf cell, and standard cell custom layouts for CMOS and BiCMOS circuits.
  • Perform schematic-driven layout and design constraints.
  • Design die-area efficient layouts according to circuit designer requirements.
  • Perform block or top-level layout designs.
  • Perform floor-planning, power line planning, shielding, and device-matching layout.
  • Verify layouts, ensuring they pass DRC, LVS, and ERC.
  • Contribute to various chip-level routing and layout needs.
  • Perform chip-level integration, verifications, and tape-out.
  • Support other projects as needed by management.
  • Train junior layout engineers and offshore layout contractors.
  • Contribute to developing common best practices and workflow across all sites.
  • Contribute to building processes and procedures to achieve high layout quality.
  • Requires remote interfacing with local and global design and layout teams in multiple design centers across different time zones.

Requirements

  • BA/BS Degree in Layout Design or related field or equivalent experience.
  • 10 years’ experience with layout design for analog and full-custom digital blocks.
  • Experience with TSMC 180nm, 65nm, and 22nm process technologies.
  • Proficient in using layout editing tools in the Cadence Virtuoso design environment.
  • Solid working knowledge of debugging DRC/LVS/ERC with Cadence PVS or Mentor Calibre.
  • Conceptual understanding of layout topics such as parasitic, matching, crosstalk, transistor layout dependent effects, latch-up, IR drop, electro migration (EM), and deep N-well and NTN isolation.
  • Strong capability of solving device matching, electro-migration, signal integrity, and power distribution problems while meeting area constraints.
  • Experience in chip-level floor planning and analog block integration.
  • Experience with chip-level integration, verifications, and tape-out.
  • Ability to use productivity-enhancing tools and design scripts to further automate tasks is also desirable.
  • Must be able to lift, push, and pull up to 5 lbs.
