What we offer:

Your tasks and responsibilities

• Our team develops CMOS image sensors for consumer & medical applications. The applications require designing circuits with considerations of both low power, noise & area. Together with the design team, you are one of the key circuit designers for a project.
• You are involved from the early start of the project, checking the feasibility of the project concept, and will be responsible to support with design & layout up to the tape-out.
• During lab validation you will take up measurement and validation of the circuits you have designed and will support the team up ‘till the final production ramp-up.
• Analog block design and layout, including corner verification, mismatch simulations and post-layout simulations.
• Feasibility studies in order to define product architectures and circuit topologies.
• Defining product requirements from marketing needs.
• Top-level floor planning
• Leading a small project team of designers and layout engineers (<10 people)
• Top-level layout and verification
• Database delivery to fab.
• Documentation, methodology, design flow optimization
