Position: Staff AMS Layout Engineer
Break free from legacy packaging constraints and push the limits of power delivery. At Empower Semiconductor, we are redefining how power is delivered to the world's most demanding AI processors through ultra-high-frequency, ultra-high-density power converters built on advanced semiconductor technologies. Based in Silicon Valley, Empower is a power management technology leader at the forefront of the AI, HPC and data-center applications.

Role Overview

To expand the team in our Milpitas Headquarters, we are seeking an experienced Analog/Mixed-Signal layout Engineer to contribute to the development of high-performance power management ICs in advanced CMOS nodes. In this role, you will collaborate closely with circuit designers to deliver high-density, ultra efficient layout implementations that meet aggressive performance and size targets.

The ideal candidate has 5+ years of hands-on experience, deep expertise in custom analog layout, and thrives in a startup-like, high-accountability culture.

Key Responsibilities

* Execute full-custom layout of analog/mixed-signal building blocks including LDOs, bandgaps, opamps, comparators, and switching regulators

* Floorplan and implement top-level analog/mixed-signal blocks with attention to matching, shielding, routing symmetry, and parasitic

* Perform physical verification: DRC, LVS, ERC using industry standard tools

* Collaborate with designers to iterate and optimize layouts based on circuit sensitivities and extracted simulation results

* Ensure reliability and manufacturability through proper layout practices

Qualifications:

* BS or MS in Electrical Engineering with 5+ years' experience in Power IC design

* Expert-level proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso and verification tools

* Strong understanding of analog layout techniques: device matching, noise isolation, current density, and thermal awareness

* Strong sense of ownership/accountability; able to work independently and collaboratively in a team environment.

* Experience with Fin Fet layout is desirable

* Good communication skills (verbal, written)
