RFIC Layout Designer

The Wireless SoC Radio Team designs state-of-the-art, highly energy-efficient CMOS radios from RF to bits. This role involves designing a wide range of RF, analog, and mixed-signal blocks, including RF front-end amplifiers, data converters, baseband filters, phase-locked loops, crystal oscillators, and bandgap references. The team works on new technologies transforming user experience, driven by a vertically integrated engineering team. The RFIC Layout Designer will work closely with the RFIC design team to layout and verify custom RF and analog IP for complex SoC products, impacting Apple's radios in millions of products. Responsibilities include transistor-level layout of RF and analog circuit blocks, block-level layout through verification, co-working with designers on floorplanning, and layout reviews for critical aspects like power/ground routing, electromigration, signal path checks, and matching.
