Circuit Design Engineer - New College Grad 2026 will join a global circuits team to develop cutting-edge processor designs in deep submicron technologies. The role involves designing innovative digital, semi-custom, and mixed-signal analog circuits for silicon correlation and hardware security. Day-to-day responsibilities include performing detailed transistor-level analysis to improve performance, reliability, and security, as well as driving the physical implementation of circuit IPs for current and voltage sensing and security attack detection. The candidate will utilize Spice simulations, EM/IR analysis, and static timing analysis while potentially using RTL, logic synthesis, and scripting languages like Perl, Tcl, or Make. This position focuses on solving technical challenges in hardware security and power management by creating prototypes of patentable ideas for deployment across product lines within the semiconductor domain.
