We are seeking a skilled PCB Layout Engineer with hands-on experience in Cadence Allegro PCB Designer to join our Hardware Engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for designing high-quality multilayer PCB layouts for complex electronic products while ensuring compliance with signal integrity, manufacturability, and industry standards.

Key Responsibilities

- Design and develop multilayer PCB layouts (4 to 20+ layers) using Cadence Allegro PCB Designer.
- Perform optimized component placement and routing for analog, digital, mixed-signal, RF, and power circuits.
- Work closely with Hardware Design Engineers to convert schematics into manufacturable PCB layouts.
- Implement high-speed design practices including impedance-controlled routing, differential pair routing, and length matching.
- Design PCB stack-ups in coordination with fabrication vendors.
- Create and maintain PCB libraries, symbols, footprints, and pad stacks.
- Generate manufacturing deliverables including Gerber files, ODB++, IPC-2581, drill files, fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, pick-and-place files, and BOMs.
- Perform Design Rule Check (DRC), Electrical Rule Check (ERC), and layout verification.
- Apply DFM (Design for Manufacturability), DFA (Design for Assembly), and DFT (Design for Testability) principles.
- Support prototype builds, engineering change orders (ECOs), and production releases.
- Coordinate with Mechanical, Firmware, Manufacturing, and Procurement teams throughout the product development lifecycle.




- Resolve PCB fabrication and assembly issues with vendors.
- Ensure compliance with IPC standards and internal PCB design guidelines.

Required Skills

- Solid expertise in Cadence Allegro PCB Designer.
- Experience in multilayer PCB layout design.
- Knowledge of high-speed PCB design techniques.
- Understanding of signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), EMI/EMC, and controlled impedance routing.
- Experience with PCB stack-up planning and HDI design.
- Knowledge of PCB fabrication and assembly processes.
- Familiarity with Gerber, ODB++, IPC-2581, and manufacturing documentation.
- Strong understanding of DRC, DFM, DFA, and DFT.
- Experience with component library and footprint creation.
- Ability to read and interpret electronic schematics.

Preferred Knowledge

- High-speed interfaces: DDR, USB, PCIe, Ethernet, HDMI, MIPI, LVDS, CAN, SPI, UART, and I²C.
- Rigid-Flex PCB design.
- RF PCB layout techniques.
- Thermal management considerations.
- IPC-2221, IPC-7351, IPC-A-600, and IPC-6012 standards.

Educational Qualification

- Bachelor's Degree or Diploma in Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), Electrical Engineering (EEE), Instrumentation, or a related discipline.

Preferred Experience

- 3–6 years of PCB Layout Design experience.
- Experience in Electronics Product Development or Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS).
- Hands-on experience in board bring-up support and production release activities.

Pay: ₹10,000.00 - ₹95,000.00 per month
