Our mission is to amplify human imagination and intelligence, and we are dedicated to this life's work.

What you'll be doing:

+ You will architect highly automated and customizable design flows using modern software engineering methodologies

+ Build flows for methodologies incorporating logic/physical synthesis, design planning, and equivalence checking for industry-leading chip designs

+ Be responsible for design, implementation and testing of CAD programs

+ Work with design teams and leading EDA vendors to evaluate the industry's most powerful design implementation and analysis tools

+ Provide support for ASIC tools and flows

+ Assist chip design teams with advanced implementation tasks

What we need to see:

+ BS in Electrical, Computer Engineering or equivalent experience with 3+ years of CAD experience; MS preferred

+ Be familiar with Verilog and ASIC design along with experience in commercial EDA tools

+ Software engineering experience with software design, algorithms, data structures, testing

+ Have a strong proficiency in at least one of Python, Perl, Tcl, C/C++

+ Knowledge or experience with logic synthesis, physical design, or formal equivalence checking.

+ Proven track record developing flows and/or tools for chip design

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

+ Familiarity with Machine Learning/Deep Learning

+ Experience in other ASIC methodologies such as RTL Lint, CDC, DFT or STA.

+ Experience with compute farm interaction: software deployment, performance optimization, containers, etc.
