About Us: Vertical Compute is an early-stage deep tech startup dedicated to pioneering next-generation memory technologies for advanced computing architecture. Our mission is to redefine the well-known trade-offs of semiconductor memory devices, ultimately enabling the future of computing. We are welcoming passionate, experienced, and forward-thinking colleagues to join our dynamic team and disrupt the industry together.
About what you will do:
As a Senior (CAD &) Layout Engineer, you will drive the physical implementation of advanced memory. Working closely with design and technology teams, you'll contribute to next-generation storage and compute solutions through optimized layout, design methodology, and integration support.
Your responsibilities
Deliver full-custom layout of memory in advanced nodes (FinFET and beyond).
Optimize floorplan, matching, and routing under strict area, power, and reliability constraints.
Develop and maintain layout flows, physical views (GDS, LEF, etc.), and verification checks (DRC, LVS, xRC,...).
Collaborate across design, PDK, and technology teams for DTCO and test chip/product integration.
Occasionally, support CAD automation, design validation, and silicon debug.
