Role Summary

AI-generated

This senior engineer will join a mixed-signal design team building next-generation NVLINK technology. The role focuses on high-speed interfaces and analog circuits, taking integrated circuit designs operating at 25Gbps and higher from concept through silicon characterization for product lines spanning consumer graphics, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and implement high-speed interfaces and analog circuits.
  • Define circuit requirements and complete designs from schematic and layout through verification and characterization.
  • Conduct schematic design of deep-submicron CMOS technologies using Spectre, Hspice, or similar tools.
  • Own architecture, transistor design, and verification using industry-standard EDA tools such as Cadence Virtuoso.
  • Optimize circuits to meet system-performance specifications.
  • Provide layout guidance, post-silicon bring-up support, and debugging.
