Senior Memory Layout Engineer
Location: Hyderabad, India
Experience: 5–10 Years
Role Overview:
We are looking for experienced Senior Memory Layout Engineers with solid hands-on expertise in custom layout and physical implementation of memory circuits. The role involves working closely with circuit design, technology, and verification teams to deliver high-quality, DRC/LVS-clean memory layouts.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop custom layouts for memory circuits including SRAM, ROM, Register File, and memory periphery.
Execute block-level and full-memory layout from schematic/netlist to DRC/LVS-clean database.
Work on layout of bitcells, sense amplifiers, pre-charge circuits, decoders, write/read paths, and peripheral circuits.
Perform matching, symmetry, shielding, common-centroid, and parasitic-aware layout as applicable.
Debug and resolve DRC, LVS, ERC, antenna, density, and connectivity issues.
Collaborate with circuit designers on layout optimization, PPA, matching, and parasitic reduction.
Support PEX and post-layout simulation activities.
Ensure adherence to foundry PDK,



design rules, and layout methodologies.
Participate in design reviews, tapeout activities, and continuous layout methodology improvements.
Required Skills:
5–10 years of relevant experience in Memory / Custom IC Layout.
Strong hands-on experience with SRAM and/or memory macro layout.
Good understanding of CMOS layout concepts, device matching, parasitics, and design rules.
Experience with industry-standard tools such as Cadence Virtuoso, Calibre, or equivalent.
Strong expertise in DRC/LVS debugging and physical verification.
Understanding of FinFET/advanced-node layout concepts is preferred.
Good scripting/automation exposure using SKILL, Python, Tcl, or Shell is an advantage.
Strong analytical, debugging, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Preferred
Experience with high-density memory macros and advanced-node technologies.
Exposure to full-custom layout, PEX, EM/IR, and reliability check
