Job Title : Senior Analog Layout Engineer VLSI
Location : Bangalore, India
Experience : 6 to 12 Years
Employment Type : Full-time / Permanent
About the Role :
We are looking for an experienced Analog Layout Engineer with a strong background in custom and analog / mixed-signal layout design for advanced process nodes.
The candidate will be responsible for the layout design, verification, and integration of analog, RF, and mixed-signal IPs, ensuring high performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
This role requires close collaboration with circuit designers, physical verification, and CAD teams to deliver first-time-right silicon.
Key Responsibilities :
- Perform layout design for analog and mixed-signal blocks, including amplifiers, bandgaps, PLLs, ADCs, DACs, regulators, SERDES, and other custom circuits.
- Execute floorplanning, device placement, routing, matching, and parasitic optimization.
- Ensure layout symmetry, shielding, guard rings, and ESD protection requirements are met.
- Conduct LVS, DRC, ERC, and parasitic extraction (PEX) to ensure layout sign-off compliance.
- Work closely with analog circuit design engineers to meet performance and area goals.
- Optimize layouts for low noise, high speed, power efficiency, and yield.
- Handle full-custom and semi-custom layout design for multiple technology nodes (e.g., 7nm, 16nm, 28nm, 40nm, 65nm).
- Collaborate with CAD and methodology teams to improve layout flow and efficiency.
- Manage project deliverables, maintain quality documentation, and support tape-out activities.
Required Skills & Qualifications :
6 to 12 years of hands-on experience in Analog / Mixed-Signal Layout Design.Strong proficiency with EDA tools such as Cadence Virtuoso, Assura, Calibre, and Mentor Graphics.Solid understanding of layout design principles, device matching, common-centroid techniques, and parasitic management.Experience with deep sub-micron technologies (preferably 7nm / 16nm / 28nm and below).Proven experience in LVS / DRC closure, PEX analysis, and timing / performance optimization.Good understanding of circuit design fundamentals and analog performance metrics.Strong collaboration skills with circuit and verification teams.(ref : hirist.tech)
