Summary
✨ AI‑Generated
Design manufacturable multilayer flex-circuit layouts for demanding cryogenic applications. You will translate schematics into detailed stack-ups, routing and grounding, optimize signal and thermal performance, create manufacturing documentation, perform design-rule checks, and contribute to reusable EDA layout libraries.
Highlights
Design advanced multilayer flex circuits for cryogenic applications and next-generation computing hardware. The role combines system-level collaboration, signal integrity, thermal optimization, manufacturing readiness, and EDA library development.
Description
Apply via our website or send and e-mail with your resume and a short motivation to work+layoutdesign@delft-circuits.com.
As Layout Design Engineer at Delft Circuits, you'll turn system architectures into manufacturable flex circuit layouts.
You'll work closely with Systems, Application, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, and with Production.At Delft Circuits, we build the cryogenic I/O infrastructure behind the next generation of quantum computers.
Our Cri/oFlex® technology replaces conventional cryogenic wiring with scalable, integrated superconducting flex circuits.
What you'll do
Design multilayer flex circuit layouts for cryogenic applicationsTranslate schematics and requirements into layouts: stack-ups, routing, grounding and mechanical constraintsOptimize for signal integrity, thermal performance and scalabilityCreate panelization and manufacturing documentation, run DRCs and help automate themBuild and maintain a PDK library (layout level) compatible with industrial EDA toolsStandardize design rules, build reusable libraries and templates, and support root cause investigations
What you bring
3+ years in high-tech or deep-tech (semiconductors, PCB manufacturing, consumer electronics or similar)BSc/MSc in EE, Electronics, Mechatronics, Applied Physics or a related fieldPCB or flex layout experience and knowledge of PCB/flex manufacturing constraintsECAD tools (Altium, Cadence Allegro, KiCad or similar)Able to read electrical schematics and mechanical drawingsPython or scripting for design automationFluent English (Dutch is a plus)
Bonus: HDI/flex, ADS/AWR, PDK building, SI/EMC, MCAD, PLM, or a background in cryogenics, RF/microwave, superconducting electronics or quantum.
