Layout Design Engineer – Hyderabad, India
Join Micron Technology’s HBM Team to design and develop critical analog, custom digital, and full‑chip integration solutions for high‑bandwidth memory and AI/HP computing applications.
Role & Responsibilities
- Design and develop critical blocks, co‑optimization objectives for mixed‑signal, custom digital, and full‑chip integration support.
- Build and tape‑out PWF reticle designs.
- Collaborate with the Scribe Design team to capture advanced packaging requirements.
- Review TSV design engagement with HIG‑HBM DTPCO teams (electrical, thermal, mechanical performance).
- Create and maintain DFMEA for advanced packaging process steps like PWF, die stacking, etc.
- Perform layout verification (LVS/DRC/antenna) and quality documentation.
- Ensure on‑time delivery of block‑level layouts with acceptable quality.
- Plan, estimate areas/time, schedule, delegate, and execute to meet project milestones in a multi‑project environment.
- Guide junior team members in sub‑block layout execution and review.
- Contribute to effective project management and effective communication with global engineering teams.
Qualifications & Requirements
- 8–15 years of experience in analog/custom layout design in advanced CMOS process (Planar, FinFET) across various technology nodes.
- Expertise in Cadence VLE/VXL and Mentor Graphics Calibre DRC/LVS.
- Hands‑on experience creating layouts for critical blocks such as temperature sensor, PLL, ADC, DAC, LDO, bandgap, reference generators, charge pump, current mirrors, comparator, differential amplifier, etc.
- Hands‑on experience in reticle development and full‑chip verification.
- Capability to automate or use AI features for fast and efficient project execution.
- Strong understanding of layout fundamentals (matching, electromigration, latch‑up, coupling, crosstalk, IR‑drop, passive parasitic devices).
- Understanding of layout effects on circuit performance (speed, capacitance, power, area).
- Excellent problem‑solving skills in physical verification of custom layout.
- Multiple tape‑out support experience is an added advantage.
- Experience managing multiple layout projects and ensuring quality checks at all stages.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
