TL;DR · SRAM Circuit Design Engineer

The SRAM Circuit Design Engineer joins the Digital Custom Group to design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM. Working within the silicon design effort, this role involves collaborating with logic and architecture teams to formulate specifications and define topologies optimized for power, timing, area, and yield. Key responsibilities include schematic capture, simulations, margin verifications, functional equivalency, and DFT modeling. The engineer will also perform backend verification, IR/EM analysis, and write RTL to validate use-cases against design schematics. Required skills include experience with SoC design cycles, nanometer device physics, and industry-standard design tools. The role specifically addresses the technical challenges of developing low power, low voltage, and high performance SRAM and Register Files for products like the M1 and A14 Bionic chips.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM design.
  • Define architecture and topologies to optimize for power, timing, area, and yield.
  • Perform schematic capture, simulations, analysis, and margin verifications.
  • Write RTL and validate use-cases against design schematics.
  • Collaborate with layout teams to create and verify optimal GDS.
  • Perform backend verification, including IR and EM analysis.
  • Support post-silicon efforts to enable productization.

What we're looking for

  • BS degree in a relevant field.
  • Minimum of 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience developing circuits and SRAM/Register Files for low power, low voltage, and high performance (preferred).
  • Knowledge of Cache design/architecture and memory hierarchy (preferred).
  • Working knowledge of RTL modeling (preferred).
  • Solid understanding of industry-standard design tools (preferred).
  • Deep understanding of nanometer device physics, leakage mechanisms, and technology interactions with device behavior (preferred).
  • Ability to devise experiments and analyze data for silicon debug (preferred).
