TL;DR · Samsung Semiconductor

Join our dynamic team as a Staff Engineer specializing in SRAM Layout, where you will lead the development and execution of full-custom SRAM memory layout and verification flows. You’ll collaborate closely with circuit designers to translate schematics into efficient physical layouts, manage floor planning, placement, routing, and tape-out processes, and optimize designs for area, speed, power, yield, and manufacturability. Utilizing industry-standard EDA tools like Cadence Virtuoso and physical verification software, you will perform rigorous DRC/LVS checks and develop automation scripts in Perl, Tcl, or SKILL to enhance productivity. This role requires extensive experience with advanced process nodes and a strong background in SRAM layout design, coupled with leadership skills to mentor junior engineers and drive best practices within global cross-functional teams.

What you'll do

  • Lead the development and execution of full-custom SRAM memory layout flows.
  • Translate schematics into efficient, high-performance physical layouts for SRAMs.
  • Design and optimize SRAM layouts at cell, array, and peripheral levels for various metrics.
  • Perform and close all physical verification tasks including DRC, LVS, ERC checks.
  • Develop automation scripts to improve productivity in SRAM layout design.

What we're looking for

  • Extensive experience in SRAM layout design at advanced process nodes.
  • Bachelor's degree with 10+ years of experience or master's with 8+ years.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead and mentor a team of layout engineers.
  • Strong proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools for custom/analog layout.
  • Experience in high-speed, low-power SRAM design in leading-edge nodes.
  • Scripting/automation skills (Perl, Tcl, SKILL) to improve productivity.
