Job Title : Memory Design Engineer
Experience Required : 2+ Years
Location : Bangalore
Job Type : Full-time
Industry : Semiconductors / VLSI / Memory IP
Job Summary :
We are seeking a skilled Memory Design Engineer to join our advanced memory IP development team. The candidate will be responsible for architecting, designing, and validating high-performance and low-power memory blocks (e.g., SRAM, ROM, Register Files) for use in SoCs and ASICs across leading-edge process technologies.
Key Responsibilities :
- Design custom memory circuits such as SRAM, ROM, CAM, Register Files, or eFuse.
- Work closely with layout, verification, and technology teams to ensure optimal performance, power, and area (PPA).
- Perform transistor-level circuit design, simulation, and optimization for speed, power, and robustness.
- Analyze and simulate key circuits : sense amplifiers, bitline pre-charge, wordline drivers, decoders, write drivers, etc.
- Run simulations across PVT corners using tools like HSPICE, Spectre, or XA.
- Collaborate with layout teams for floorplanning and to ensure DRC / LVS clean layouts.
- Perform post-layout simulations and analysis (IR drop, EM, aging).
- Participate in memory characterization, yield improvement, and silicon bring-up support.
- Contribute to memory compiler development (if applicable).
Required Skills and Experience :
B.E / B.Tech or M.E / M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or VLSI.2+ years of experience in full custom memory design.Strong background in analog / mixed-signal CMOS circuit design.Proficiency in simulation tools : HSPICE, Spectre, FastSPICE, XA.Experience with design in advanced nodes (e.g., 28nm, 16nm, 7nm, 5nm, FinFET).Familiarity with ESD, IR drop, EM, and reliability analysis techniques.Understanding of process variation and Monte Carlo simulations.Good debugging, problem-solving, and documentation skills.Preferred Qualifications :
Experience with memory compiler architecture / design.Knowledge of radiation-hardened memory (RHBD) or safety-compliant memory (ISO 26262).Scripting knowledge (e.g., Python, Perl, Tcl) for automation.Exposure to silicon bring-up and correlation to simulation results.Interested can share Cv to
