About this role
Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all .
Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.
As an ASIC Analog Layout Engineer at Micron, you will play a key role in shaping ASICs used in Micron's tester and controller IP. You will be responsible for the physical implementation of high-speed analog and mixed-signal circuits while partnering closely with analog designers to develop robust, manufacturable layout solutions that optimize performance, signal integrity, and reliability in advanced semiconductor technologies.
The ideal candidate will have a strong background of success developing custom analog and mixed-signal layouts for high-speed circuits in deep sub-micron process technologies. Candidates with backgrounds in Analog Layout, Custom IC Layout, Mixed-Signal Layout, ASIC Physical Design, or Mask Design are encouraged to apply. Candidates who meet the minimum qualifications will be considered across multiple experience levels.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Develop high-quality custom analog and mixed-signal layouts for high-speed ASIC applications.
- Collaborate with analog design engineers to create efficient and manufacturable layout solutions and provide feedback on layout feasibility.
- Perform and debug physical verification checks including LVS, DRC, ERC, and antenna rule analysis.
- Optimize layouts for parasitics, signal integrity, electromigration, ESD robustness, and latch-up prevention.
- Contribute to layout methodologies, hierarchy standards, and process improvements that increase team efficiency.
- Develop automation, scripting, and AI-enabled solutions to improve layout productivity and workflow effectiveness.
- Troubleshoot and resolve layout environment, CAD, and tool-related issues.
- Support layout implementation for high-speed circuit blocks such as SerDes, PLL, DLL, transmitters, receivers, clocking circuits, analog front-end designs, and related PHY circuitry.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related technical field, or equivalent industry experience.
- Experience using Cadence Virtuoso or similar custom IC layout tools to develop custom analog, mixed-signal, or ASIC layouts.
- Experience performing physical verification activities including DRC, LVS, ERC, and antenna rule closure.
- Experience working with semiconductor process technologies and applying analog layout fundamentals to optimize circuit performance and manufacturability.
Preferred Skills/Qualifications:
- 4+ years of experience in custom analog, mixed-signal, ASIC physical design, or IC layout engineering.
- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related technical field.
- Experience with advanced process technologies including FinFET nodes of 16nm or below.
- Experience supporting high-speed analog circuits such as SerDes, PHY, PLL, DLL, TX, RX, clocking circuits, analog front-end designs, or related high-speed blocks.
- Experience with parasitic analysis and extraction tools such as Quantus Insight, ParagonX, or similar technologies.
- Experience developing automation solutions using SKILL, Python, PVL, or related scripting languages, including the use of AI-enabled tools to improve engineering productivity and workflow efficiency.
- Experience with advanced-node layout techniques, including high-speed CMOS and CML layout methodologies.
