Senior Memory Layout Engineer
Location: Bengaluru, India
Experience: 4–8 Years
Role
Join our Memory Design team to develop high-performance SRAM, ROM, Register File, and Compiler-Based Memory layouts for advanced-node SoCs. You will drive memory layout implementation from device level to top-level integration, ensuring robust quality, manufacturability, and first-pass silicon success.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement memory layouts including SRAM, ROM, Register Files, and memory compiler IPs.
- Develop bitcell arrays, sense amplifiers, decoders, column muxes, row/column periphery, and top-level memory integration.
- Perform floorplanning, device matching, routing, shielding, guard ring implementation, and layout optimization.
- Drive DRC, LVS, ERC, Antenna, Density, DFM, EM/IR, and physical signoff closure.
- Collaborate with Circuit Design, Physical Design, Reliability, and Process teams to achieve timing, area, and yield targets.
- Support layout migration across technology nodes and process variants.
- Contribute to methodology improvements and layout automation.
What You Bring
- 4–8 years of hands-on experience in Memory Layout.
- Strong expertise in SRAM, ROM, Register Files, Memory Compilers, Bitcells, Sense Amplifiers, Decoders, and Periphery Layout.
- Experience with Virtuoso XL/Studio, Calibre/PVS/ICV, StarRC/Quantus, and physical verification flows.
- Solid understanding of advanced technology nodes (FinFET preferred) and layout techniques for matching, shielding, isolation, and reliability.
- Knowledge of DRC/LVS/ERC, DFM, Antenna, EM/IR, and physical signoff methodologies.
- Good scripting skills (Tcl/Python) are an added advantage.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with compiler-based memory architectures and top-level memory integration.
- Exposure to advanced nodes (7nm/5nm/3nm) and low-power memory design.
- Strong debugging, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.
We're Looking For
Engineers with deep memory layout expertise who are passionate about building high-density, high-performance memory IPs and delivering robust silicon through technical excellence and innovation.
