Job Overview:
Our Solutions Engineering Physical IP team comprises some of the industry’s leading experts in deep submicron circuit design. This position is a wonderful opportunity for you to work with our custom standard cell design engineering team on innovative technologies. Your work will have a significant lasting impact as the designs will be used in Solutions Engineering products servicing the infrastructure, client, automotive, and IoT market segments.
Responsibilities:
You will be responsible for the development of Arm custom standard cells in the latest, sub-3nm process technology nodes. You will work as part of a team that co-optimizes the circuit design with physical design engineers to improve the PPA of Arm cores that will be integrated into best-in-class SoCs.
You will work in close collaboration with the mask design team to provide optimally tuned layout, characterize and model all standard libra
Required Skills and Experience :
- 2+ years of relevant circuit design experience (for BSEE)
- 1+ years of relevant circuit design experience (for MSEE)
- Experience in the identification, design and verification of cells specifically targeted to improve core and SoC level PPA
- In-depth understanding of MOSFET electrical characteristics, transistor level device physics, PPA tradeoffs, layout and variability especially at 3nm and below technology nodes
- Expertise in transistor level design of static circuits including state retaining elements such as latches and flops
- Hands-on development of standard cell EDA view characterization, modeling and QA
- Experience with standard cell characterization tools and Spice circuit simulators
- Familiarity with scripting languages such as Perl or Python
- Be willing to iteratively improve designs and repeatedly attempt to develop solutions to difficult problems
- Demonstrate a positive attitude and respect for all members of the team
- Be motivated to continuously develop skills and accept various responsibilities as a part of contributing to Arm’s success
- Ability to analyze data and present conclusions effectively
