Job description
Join Apple's Silicon Engineering Group as an Analog Layout engineer, where you will contribute to the development of advanced Analog/Mixed-Signal circuits for Apple's systems-on-chip. This role involves collaborating with circuit designers and utilizing advanced tools to create custom analog designs that enhance product performance. You will work in a dynamic environment that fosters innovation and continuous learning. Your expertise will be crucial in delivering high-quality analog layout designs for world-leading SOCs.
Requirements
- BS degree and a minimum of 10 years relevant industry experience.
- 10+ years of experience in analog/mixed-signal layout design, focusing on deep submicron CMOS circuits.
- At least 3+ years of experience in FinFET technologies.
- Programming/scripting knowledge in SKILL, Perl, TCL, Shell, and/or Python.
- Familiarity with Machine Learning and AI concepts.
- Experience with ultra-high speed ADC/DAC.
- Proven expertise in implementing analog layout designs with tight matching, low noise, and low power consumption.
- High proficiency in custom and standard cell-based floor-planning and hierarchical layout assembly.
- Technical understanding of IR drop, RC delay, electromigration, self-heating, and coupling capacitance.
- High proficiency in interpreting physical verification reports (DRC, ERC, LVS, etc.).
- Experience using Cadence Virtuoso's advanced features (XL, EAD, APR, and Constraint Manager).
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work with cross-functional teams.
- Experience with Cadence Innovus.
- CAD Automation experience.
- PCell creation experience.
- MSEE or Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering.
Responsibilities
- Craft sophisticated layouts for mixed-signal and analog circuits.
- Review floorplans and analyze intricate circuits with circuit designers.
- Run complete sets of design verification tools and plan/schedule work.
- Coordinate vital layout tradeoffs and interpret LVS, DRC, and ERC reports.
- Identify failure-prone circuit and layout structures and solve related problems.
Benefits
- Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
