TL;DR · Circuit Design Automation Engineer

As a Custom Design Automation Engineer at the Digital Design Engineering group, you will play a pivotal role in transforming innovative ideas into cutting-edge ASIC designs. Your responsibilities include automating custom analysis flows to fix design margins, building memory compiler technologies for large SoC designs, and developing QA checks to verify EDA views of SRAM and register files. You will collaborate closely with the design and CAD teams to optimize timing and power methodologies, applying machine learning to enhance design flows and QA checks. This role requires a strong background in custom transistor-level circuits and SRAM designs, proficiency in programming languages such as SKILL, Perl, Python, TCL, and Shell, and expertise in industry-standard circuit simulators and STA tools.

What you'll do

  • Automate custom analysis flows to fix design margins.
  • Build and maintain memory compiler technologies for large SoC designs.
  • Debug issues and offer quick solutions for digital IP designers/users.
  • Define and develop QA checks to verify EDA views of SRAM and register files.
  • Optimize design flows and methodologies with the CAD team for SRAM designs.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in custom transistor level circuits and SRAM designs.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as SKILL, Perl, Python, TCL, Shell.
  • Strong understanding of industry-standard circuit simulators and STA tools.
  • Capability to work collaboratively with the circuit team on design flows.
  • Knowledge of timing, power, noise analysis, and EMIR analysis techniques.
  • Skill in applying machine learning for optimizing EDA flows and QA checks.
