Analog Layout Engineer

The Sustainable Automation BU are seeking a motivated and creative Analog Layout Engineer to join our team developing Industry 4.0 leading silicon solutions to drive growth in our global business. The successful candidate will join a dynamic team in Limerick with excellent opportunities to work on leading edge development in Sustainable Industrial automation. Our diverse portfolio of products encompassing Industrial communication (eg Ethernet Phys and switches, IO-Link, ..) with configurable measurement and control (precision Analog and Digital I/O), which operate in harsh high voltage industrial domains and facilitates a wide variation of skill development and technology node experience. This position will afford the successful candidate the opportunity to participate in the development of large silicon systems working across multidisciplinary cross-functional teams including Analog and Digital Design, physical Implementation and CAD groups,. This is a senior level, hands-on, technical leadership position giving the opportunity to have great impact and influence on the SA team’s future direction.

Responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• Layout ownership for full-chip and large-scale analog/mixed-signal blocks from floorplan through tapeout
• Floorplan development at block, subsystem, and full-chip levels for designs of significant size and complexity
• Top-level integration of mixed-signal chips, including coordination between IP owners and digital physical design teams (as applicable)
• Schedule and milestone ownership for assigned layout scope, including resourcing and execution planning where applicable
• Physical verification leadership, including DRC, LVS, ERC, antenna, density, extraction, and signoff documentation
• Parasitic extraction coordination and support of post-layout simulation/debug to close performance targets
• Reliability and robustness closure, including EM/IR, ESD-aware layout, latch-up prevention, and isolation strategy
• Analog layout best practices execution, including matching techniques, shielding, noise isolation, supply integrity considerations, and substrate/well strategy
• Cross-functional partnership with circuit design, verification/validation, packaging, foundry, assembly, reliability, and failure analysis teams to enable design closure
• Methodology improvement, including development of checklists, templates, reusable collateral, and (where applicable) automation/scripting to reduce re-work
• Technical leadership and mentoring for junior layout engineers; contribution to team standards and knowledge sharing
• Technical communication, including clear reporting of status/risks, and preparation of supporting material for design reviews

Minimum qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronic/Computer Engineering (or related field) or equivalent experience
• 10+ years of full-custom IC layout experience with analog/mixed-signal designs (block and/or full-chip)
• Proficiency with industry-standard custom layout tools and verification/signoff flows
• Proven ability to lead layout to signoff, including strong debug skills for physical verification issues and signoff closure
• Proven expertise in analog layout fundamentals, including matching techniques, shielding/noise isolation, substrate/well strategy, latch-up prevention, and ESD-aware layout
• Demonstrated ownership mindset: self-motivated, takes responsibility, and consistently closes complex layout problems
• Strong planning and organizational skills (schedule/milestone ownership for assigned scope)
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to produce clear supporting documentation
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively across multi-discipline, multi-site global teams

Preferred Qualities

• Experience as layout chip lead and/or top-level integration lead on large mixed-signal designs
• Experience in advanced CMOS nodes
• Experience with top-down integration methodologies, including AoT (Analog-on-Top) and DoT (Digital-on-Top) flows
• Experience integrating large digital IP and partnering with digital physical design teams
• Experience with high-voltage layout and/or BiCMOS technologies
• Scripting/automation experience (e.g., SKILL, PERL, AMPLE, or similar) to improve flow efficiency and quality
• PCELL creation experience
• Track record of defining/improving layout methodologies, reusable IP, checklists, and documentation that measurably reduce re-work
