TL;DR

Join our dynamic and growing team as a Circuit Design Engineer where you will play a pivotal role in enhancing the netlist and timing quality of our cutting-edge designs. You’ll collaborate with a global circuits team to design innovative digital, semi-custom, and mixed-signal analog circuits for silicon correlation and hardware security, performing detailed transistor-level analysis to improve performance, reliability, and security. Your responsibilities include driving the physical implementation of circuit IPs using custom and automated tools, creating prototypes of patentable ideas on test chips, and mentoring junior team members. Ideal candidates hold a Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering with expertise in deep submicron process issues, digital circuit design techniques, and analog/mixed-signal block design. Proficiency in Spice simulations, EM/IR analysis, static timing closure, RTL logic synthesis, verification, scripting languages like Perl and Tcl, and security attack detection circuits is essential for this role at the forefront of AI and computing innovation.
