The organization emphasizes an engineering culture built on ownership, quality-driven execution, and scalable offshore teams that integrate seamlessly with client roadmaps. Long-term relationships with leading semiconductor firms reflect LeadIC’s reliability and commitment to accelerating silicon success.

Role Description

This is a full-time, on-site Analog Layout Engineer role based in Bengaluru. The Analog Layout Engineer will be responsible for translating analog and mixed-signal circuit schematics into high-quality physical layouts, ensuring compliance with design rules, matching requirements, and performance targets across process technologies. Day-to-day tasks include floorplanning, device placement, routing of critical analog circuits, and optimization for noise, mismatch, parasitics, and area. The role involves close collaboration with circuit design engineers to review schematics, understand design intent, and iterate on layout improvements based on simulation feedback. The engineer will also run and analyze physical verification checks (DRC, LVS, ERC, and related signoff flows), debug issues, and maintain thorough documentation of layout revisions and methodologies. Participation in design reviews, adherence to internal quality processes, and contribution to layout best practices and automation are expected.

Qualifications

• Strong expertise in Layout Design for analog and mixed-signal ICs, including device placement, routing, floorplanning, and layout optimization.
• Solid understanding of Circuit Design concepts, especially Analog and Analog Circuits, with the ability to interpret schematics and design constraints.
• Hands-on experience with Physical Verification flows, including DRC, LVS, ERC, and familiarity with signoff methodologies.
• Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools for analog layout and verification (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Mentor/Siemens, Synopsys tools or similar).
• Knowledge of CMOS process technologies, device physics fundamentals, matching techniques, and layout strategies for low-noise and high-precision circuits.
• Minimum 5+ years of relevant experience in analog layout engineering within the semiconductor or VLSI domain.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, VLSI, or a closely related discipline.
• Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional design teams, strong attention to detail, and a quality-focused, ownership-driven mindset
