Do you have a passion for crafting entirely new solutions?

As part of our Digital Design Engineering group, you’ll take imaginative and revolutionary ideas and determine how to turn them into reality! You and your team will apply engineering fundamentals and start from scratch if needed, bringing forward-thinking ideas to the real world. Join us, and you’ll help design the tools that allow us to bring customers experiences they’ve never before envisioned.

You will be part of an exciting silicon design group that is responsible for designing pioneering ASICs. We have an extraordinary opportunity for Digital Layout Designers!

In this highly visible role, you will be a member of Apple’s custom layout team, working on the latest technology nodes to create extraordinary custom digital macros, libraries, etc. This is a fast paced work environment with endless learning opportunities working in the design team with members of integration, CAD, circuit and technology engineering.

Imagine yourself at the center of our SOC design effort, collaborating with all fields, playing a strategic role of getting functional products to millions of customers quickly.

You will have the opportunity to integrate and come-up with new ideas, as well as work with a team of hardworking engineers. As a member of the layout team of the microprocessor group, you will be responsible to deliver PDV clean layout, including the following:

– Designing complex custom layout for digital circuits in deep SubMicron CMOS technologies.

– Reviewing and analyzing floorplans and complex circuits with circuit designers.

– Running a complete set of layout design verification tools available on megacells completed.

– Working with the circuit design team to plan, schedule work and negotiate layout tradeoffs as needed.

– Interpretation of LVS, DRC and ERC report to find the fastest way to complete layouts.

– Exceed engineering specifications and expectations.

– Use advanced CAD tools, mask design knowledge to layout corrections and robust physical design representation of circuits.
