TL;DR · SRAM Circuit Design Engineer

As a SRAM Circuit Design Engineer within the Cores Organization, you will drive the implementation of high-performance SRAM and memory structures fundamental to modern CPU architectures. You will work daily on the physical design and optimization of performance-critical components, collaborating with architecture, RTL, circuit design, and physical design teams to balance power, performance, area, and schedule requirements. Your core responsibilities include floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, timing closure, and signoff activities like parasitic extraction and reliability analysis. You will utilize industry-standard EDA tools and scripting languages such as Tcl, Perl, C, or Python to resolve complex design challenges. The role focuses on the technical challenge of developing high-speed memory structures for server, client, and gaming products while improving methodology flows and ensuring robust physical verification for advanced processor cores.

What you'll do

  • Implement high-speed SRAM and memory structures for advanced CPU products.
  • Perform floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, and timing closure.
  • Resolve complex implementation, timing, power, and signoff challenges.
  • Optimize designs to balance performance, power, area, and schedule requirements.
  • Develop creative solutions for technical design and tool-related problems.
  • Improve methodology and flow to increase design quality and efficiency.
  • Support physical verification, extraction, reliability analysis, and design signoff activities.
  • Create technical presentations and documentation for engineering teams and management.

What we're looking for

  • Perform floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, timing closure, and design optimization activities.
  • Analyze and resolve implementation, timing, power, and signoff challenges.
  • Support physical verification, extraction, reliability analysis, and design signoff activities.
  • Create technical presentations, design reviews, and documentation for engineering teams and management.
  • Experience with high-speed SRAM design, memory design, or memory-centric physical implementation (preferred).
  • Strong understanding of CPU, cache, or other performance-critical digital designs (preferred).
  • Knowledge of computer architecture, hardware design concepts, and power/performance/area tradeoffs (preferred).
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field (preferred).
