Shenzhen, Guangdong, China

Layout Lead- Leading a layout team of 16 members, both permanent staff and temporary workers, spread over 3 countries- Overseeing recruitment and career development of the layout team- Setting up internal and cross functional team SOPs/workflows- Technical guidance/training of permanent staff, resulting in significant capability growth in a few short months- Various project and schedule management duties- Floorplanned and delivered a mmw testchip xx mm2, (actual size should not be disclosed) in 5 months (layout phase)

Singapore

- RF frontend layout of 6 TRX systems, WiFi, BLE, GNSS within 1 year. Include and not limited to LNAs/PAs/Mixers, TSMC 22- Conceptualised and developed inductor layout workflow- Delivered a PCELL-driven transmission line that supports fast EMX proto-typing and guide custom layout decisions thereby improving channel isolations and significantly reduces review time- Created a layout canvas that assists custom layout work

Singapore

- Participated and subsequently in charge of testkey development. Conceptualised and developed a TCL based layout tool for translating MS Excel-based schematics to gds.- Participated in standard cell library development for tsmc 40nm.- IO library development, majority being Analog IO. 110/65/55/40/28/16/14/10 nm TSMC/UMC/GF- Top integrator/various baseband/RF/test structure layout. 110/65/55/40/28/14/7/5/4 nm TSMC/UMC/GF- Frontend buffer/RF synthesizer, 16 Gbps. 4nm TSMC - POR. 5nm TSMC- InFO. 7nm TSMC- Floorplanning in advanced nodes processes are largely limited by device density which Calibre rules struggle to idenitfy. Conceptualised and developed a MS Excel spreadsheet that effectively calculates local density and also proactively suggest device spacing for silicon optimisation.- High speed layout at advanced nodes are very challenging. Developed a CAD ecosystem within the virtuoso environment that enables fast and precise prototyping of high speed connectivity. Replicates 16 Gbps connectivity with minimal effort.
