TL;DR · Senior SRAM Circuit Design Engineer

Join Apple's Digital Custom Group as an SRAM Circuit Design Engineer, where you will collaborate with top-tier engineers to design high-performance custom digital circuits for SRAM in cutting-edge products like the M1 chip. Your daily tasks include formulating design specifications, optimizing power and timing, conducting simulations, and working closely with layout teams to ensure optimal GDS creation. You’ll also write RTL code, validate use cases, and support post-silicon efforts. Ideal candidates have experience in SoC design cycles, low-power SRAM/Register File development, cache architecture, and RTL modeling. Familiarity with machine learning algorithms and scripting is beneficial as you tackle complex challenges at the heart of Apple’s silicon innovation.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM in high-performance products.
  • Define architecture optimizing power, timing, area, and yield for SRAM designs.
  • Capture schematics, perform simulations, and verify margins for SRAM implementations.
  • Collaborate with layout team to create optimal GDS for SRAM designs.
  • Verify extracted GDS meets design specifications for SRAM circuits.
  • Write RTL code and validate use-cases against design schematics.

What we're looking for

  • Extensive experience in SRAM/Register File development for low power, low voltage, high performance SoCs.
  • Proven track record of working within the full SoC design cycle.
  • Deep understanding of cache design/architecture and memory hierarchy optimization.
  • Strong knowledge of RTL modeling and scripting for circuit implementation.
  • Ability to devise experiments and analyze data for effective silicon debug.
  • Familiarity with machine learning algorithms is highly beneficial.
