Develop full-custom memory layouts for SRAM, ROM, Register File, and other memory-related blocks. Work on layout of bit cells, row/column logic, sense amplifiers, pre-charge circuits, decoders, drivers, and peripheral circuits . Perform floor planning, placement, routing, matching, shielding, and power planning. Ensure proper implementation of

DRC, LVS, ERC and other physical verification checks . Debug and resolve layout and verification issues. Work closely with circuit/design engineers to understand schematics and implement optimized layouts. Support

PEX and post-layout verification activities. Follow layout methodologies for area, performance, matching, reliability, and manufacturability . Support tape-out activities and ensure timely delivery of layout blocks.

Required Skills

Robust experience in

Memory Layout / Custom Layout . 4-8 years of relevant experience in memory layout.



Hands-on experience with

Cadence Virtuoso . Good understanding of

DRC/LVS/ERC and physical verification. Experience with

Calibre or equivalent verification tools. Good understanding of CMOS devices, matching techniques, common-centroid layout, shielding, guard rings, and routing. Experience with advanced technology nodes is an added advantage. Ability to interpret schematics and work independently on layout implementation.

Preferred Experience

SRAM / ROM / Register File / Memory Compiler layout. Advanced-node memory layout experience. Experience with

TSMC / Samsung / GlobalFoundries technologies. Experience working on full-custom analog/mixed-signal environments.
