Overview

Analog Devices stands at the forefront of semiconductor innovation, bridging the physical and digital worlds to power breakthroughs at the Intelligent Edge. With over $9 billion in revenue and 24,000 employees worldwide, we're enabling digitized factories, advanced mobility solutions, digital healthcare revolutions, climate change mitigation technologies, and seamless global connectivity. In Bangalore, India – the Silicon Valley of Asia – our Aveda Meta campus is a hub of cutting-edge ASIC and SoC development. As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you'll lead the physical implementation of complex designs across advanced nodes like 16nm, 7nm, and 5nm, directly impacting products that shape tomorrow's technology landscape.

Your role will embody ADI's core values: Agility in adapting to rapid innovation cycles, Impact through high-quality tapeouts, Leadership in mentoring teams, and Innovation in pushing PPA boundaries. Owning end-to-end physical design from floorplanning to sign-off, you'll collaborate with global RTL, verification, and foundry teams to deliver silicon that powers ADI's portfolio. Bangalore's vibrant tech ecosystem, combined with ADI's world-class infrastructure, positions you at the epicenter of semiconductor excellence.

A Day in the Life

Imagine starting your day at 9 AM in our state-of-the-art Aveda Meta facility in Bangalore, surrounded by lush greenery and modern collaborative spaces. You dive into reviewing overnight STA reports from the latest 7nm block-level PNR run, identifying a timing violation in the clock tree. Using Cadence Innovus, you tweak the floorplan – repositioning macros to alleviate congestion while optimizing the power grid for IR-drop compliance.

By 11 AM, you're in a sync with the RTL team from Massachusetts, discussing UPF constraints for multi-voltage domains. Lunch brings cross-team brainstorming over innovative automation scripts in Python that could slash tapeout cycles by 20%. Post-lunch, you mentor a junior engineer on DRC debugging, sharing war stories from your 16nm tapeouts. Afternoon involves driving physical verification closure, partnering with TSMC foundry for ERC fixes, and automating IO ring generation via Tcl flows.

As the day winds down around 6 PM, you document lessons learned in our knowledge repository, contributing to ADI's culture of continuous improvement. Evenings might include team-building at a nearby Bangalore hotspot or unwinding with the city's renowned craft coffee scene. This rhythm of technical depth, collaboration, and work-life balance defines life as a Senior Physical Design Engineer at Analog Devices in Bangalore.

Why Bangalore, India

Bangalore, officially Bengaluru in Karnataka, India, is India's premier technology hub, home to over 1.5 million IT professionals and giants like Infosys, Wipro, and now Analog Devices' expanding footprint. Known as the 'Garden City,' it blends pleasant weather (averaging 25°C year-round), rich cultural heritage from ancient temples to modern malls, and unmatched talent density. Our Aveda Meta campus offers cutting-edge labs, high-speed compute farms, and shuttle services amidst Electronic City’s tech corridor.

Here, you'll tap into India's vast semiconductor talent pool while enjoying cosmopolitan amenities: world-class healthcare at Apollo Hospitals, international schools for expats, and a thriving startup scene. Proximity to Kempegowda International Airport facilitates 10% travel for foundry meetings in Taiwan or customer reviews in California. Bangalore's cost of living is 70% lower than Silicon Valley, yet salaries match global standards, enabling luxurious living – think gated communities in Whitefield, farm-to-table dining in Indiranagar, and weekend treks in Nandi Hills. For engineers, it's paradise: vibrant maker spaces, annual VLSI conferences, and a community driving India's $1 trillion digital economy ambition.

Growth Opportunities

At Analog Devices, career progression is mapped to our Career Development Framework, emphasizing Expertise, Autonomy & Scope, and Business Impact. As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you'll advance from block-level ownership to full-chip leadership, then Principal Engineer roles directing multi-site tapeouts. Our Bangalore team supports rotations to Wilmington, Massachusetts or Limerick, Ireland hubs, broadening exposure to analog-mixed-signal integration.

Invest in yourself through ADI University – 40+ hours annual training on Synopsys ICC2, Ansys RedHawk, or AI-driven PD flows. Certification reimbursements cover IEEE courses, and internal promotions average 18 months. High performers join the Technical Ladder, leading R&D initiatives like 3nm physical design or chiplet-based SoCs. Mentorship programs pair you with Directors who've taped out 100+ designs, while leadership tracks prepare you for Engineering Manager roles overseeing 20+ engineers. Global mobility includes short-term assignments in Singapore or long-term transfers to Austin, Texas. In Bangalore, our growth hub scales with India's semiconductor boom, backed by government incentives like the India Semiconductor Mission.
