Pay Rate: $100-$110/hr. (Hourly wage may be negotiable based upon experience, education, geographic location, and other factors)

Summary: We're seeking an experienced Senior SRAM Layout Design Engineerto join a world-class semiconductor team focused on developing advanced memory IP for cutting-edge process technologies.

Responsibilities: Own the complete custom layout development of SRAM bitcell arrays, memory periphery, test structures, and memory macros. Create and optimize floorplans for SRAM and memory blocks, including array layout, peripheral circuits, power grids, routing channels, and macro assembly. Perform and debug physical verification including DRC, LVS, ERC, antenna, and related checks using Calibre, ICV, or similar tools. Support tapeout readiness through EM/IR analysis, density/fill, DFM, dummy fill insertion, layout-dependent effect mitigation, and reliability verification. Partner closely with circuit designers to translate schematics into high-quality layouts while meeting matching, symmetry, shielding, parasitic, and reliability requirements. Work with integration and physical design teams to resolve top-level DRC/LVS, routing, power-grid, boundary, and macro integration challenges. Contribute to layout methodologies, reusable design practices, and quality standards to improve memory IP development efficiency. Collaborate with foundry, CAD, and methodology teams on advanced process-node requirements, design rules, and verification flows. Review layouts, mentor junior engineers, and help drive layout excellence across the team.

Required Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or equivalent experience. 10+ years of Custom IC Layout experience. 5+ years of hands-on experience in: SRAM Layout Design Memory Compiler Layout Memory Macro Development Memory IP Layout Strong understanding of digital SRAM and memory layout architectures. Expertise with Cadence Virtuoso for custom layout development. Extensive experience with Calibre, ICV, or similar physical verification tools. Proven experience in floorplanning, block-level routing, macro assembly, pin planning, and top-level physical verification. Experience with advanced-node layout challenges including: DFM Matching & Symmetry Shielding EM/IR Layout-Dependent Effects (LDE/LOD)

Preferred Qualifications: Recent experience withTSMC advanced nodes, ideally: 3nm (N3) 2nm and below Experience with FinFET and/or GAA technologies. Knowledge of layout automation, scripting, or AI-assisted design tools. Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with circuit design, CAD, physical design, integration, and foundry teams.

Ideal Candidate: Strong background in Digital SRAM Layout Design. Recent experience withadvanced TSMC process nodes. Able to work independently and contribute immediately with minimal ramp-up. Experience delivering SRAM memory macros from layout through tapeout. If you are interested in this Senior SRAM Layout Design Engineerthen please click APPLY NOW.
