Job Description
Position Overview
As a Job Developer at Capgemini Engineering, you will lead a layout team to deliver complex analog/mixed‐signal layouts for deep submicron CMOS circuits, including advanced FinFET technologies. You will work closely with circuit designers and layout leads to ensure robust design verification while serving as a role model with outstanding technical expertise and interpersonal skills.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the layout team in executing complex layout projects for analog/mixed-signal circuits.
- Inspire, motivate, and establish effective organizational structures and communication protocols while delegating and managing time efficiently.
- Collaborate with circuit designers or layout leads to plan, schedule work, and negotiate layout trade-offs.
- Review and analyze floorplans and circuit complexities to drive efficient design verification using industry tools.
- Interpret LVS, DRC, and ERC reports to ensure timing, area, and power requirements are met using advanced CAD tools.
Required Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal layout design of deep submicron CMOS circuits and at least 3+ years of recent experience on advanced nodes including FinFET technologies.
- Experience with analog/mixed-signal IP (e.g., SERDES PHY, transmitter/receiver, PLL, DDR PHY, ADCs, DACs, LDOs, etc.).
- Proven track record in leading complex layout macros from floorplan analysis through physical design verification.
- Strong understanding of CAD flows and tools for analog/mixed-signal layout design.
- Expertise in crafting well-matched, low noise, and low power analog blocks comprising transistors, resistors, capacitors, pad IOs, and ESD structures.
- High proficiency in custom and standard cell-based floor planning and hierarchical layout assembly.
- Deep understanding of issues such as IR drop, RC delay, electro-migration, self-heating, and coupling capacitance.
- Ability to identify failure-prone circuitry and layout structures and collaborate using analog and DFM standard methodologies.
- Proficiency in interpreting CALIBRE DRC, ERC, and LVS reports.
- Knowledge of CADENCE or MENTOR GRAPHICS layout tools.
- Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to work effectively with remote teams.
Preferred Qualifications
- Familiarity with Synopsys/Cadence Analog Layout Tools (Preference: 5).
- Proficiency in using Virtuoso (Preference: 5).
- Experience with Calibre (Preference: 5).
- Basic knowledge of Python (Preference: 2).
Benefits & Perks
- Compensation: Base salary range of $76,200 - $156,310/yr with eligibility for additional variable compensation, bonus, or commission.
- Flexible work arrangements.
- Healthcare including dental, vision, mental health, and well-being programs.
- Financial well-being programs such as 401(k) and Employee Share Ownership Plan.
- Paid time off, paid holidays, and paid parental leave.
- Family building benefits including adoption assistance, surrogacy, and cryopreservation.
- Social support benefits like subsidized back-up child/elder care and tutoring.
- Opportunities for mentoring, coaching, and continuous learning.
- Employee Resource Groups and disaster relief support.
