Job Overview

We are looking for a Circuit Simulation Engineer with 2+ years of experience in transistor-level circuit simulations and analysis. The ideal candidate should have a good understanding of CMOS circuits, SPICE-based simulation methodologies and analog/mixed-signal circuit behavior.

The candidate will be responsible for executing simulations, analyzing results, debugging circuit-level issues and validating circuit performance across different process, voltage and temperature (PVT) conditions.

Key Responsibilities

- Perform transistor-level circuit simulations using industry-standard SPICE tools.
- Execute DC, AC, transient and noise simulations for analog and mixed-signal circuits.
- Perform PVT corner simulations to evaluate circuit performance across different operating conditions.
- Execute Monte Carlo simulations for statistical analysis and process variation assessment.
- Analyze simulation results and identify circuit-level performance issues.
- Debug simulation failures and investigate convergence-related issues.
- Perform power, timing, noise and stability analysis of analog circuits.
- Support pre-layout and post-layout simulations using extracted parasitic information.
- Work closely with analog circuit design, memory design and layout teams.




- Generate simulation reports and document analysis results.
- Ensure simulation accuracy and compliance with design specifications.

Required Technical Skills
- 2+ years of experience in Circuit Simulation / Analog Simulation.
- Valuable understanding of CMOS fundamentals and transistor-level circuit behavior.
- Hands-on experience with SPICE-based simulation tools such as:
- Cadence Spectre
- Synopsys HSPICE
- PrimeSim
- FineSim
- SpectreFX
- Experience in DC, AC, transient and noise simulations.
- Understanding of PVT corner analysis and Monte Carlo simulations.
- Knowledge of analog/mixed-signal circuit concepts.
- Ability to interpret simulation waveforms and analyze circuit performance.
- Basic understanding of semiconductor device characteristics and process variations.

Preferred Skills
- Exposure to SRAM/DRAM memory circuit simulations.
- Knowledge of analog building blocks such as PLL, ADC, DAC, Op-Amps and comparators.
- Experience in FastSPICE-based simulations.
- Understanding of post-layout simulations and parasitic extraction.
- Exposure to advanced technology nodes (28nm, 16nm, 7nm, 5nm or below).
- Knowledge of Python, Perl or SKILL scripting for simulation automation.
- Familiarity with Cadence Virtuoso and ADE simulation environments.

Education B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, VLSI or a related discipline.
