Santa Clara, CA$116k - $189.8kfull-timePosted 4mo ago
About the role
NVIDIA VLSI role focused on standard cell libraries and custom ROM designs in deep submicron technologies. Involves transistor-level circuit design, verification, tool development, and collaboration to improve standard cell libraries and ROM designs for AI/HPC/autonomous systems.
Responsibilities
- Work on the cutting edge standard cell libraries and/or custom ROM modules in deep submicron technologies.
- Drive the concepts of the transistor level standard cell circuit design, modeling and performance analysis process.
- Lead the function and feasibility verification of new ROM designs and set up new design flows.
- Provide creative insights to support and enhance existing tools and flows and develop new simulations to perform design margin evaluations.
- Collaborate with multi-functional teams regarding opportunities to improve standard cell develop. We will improve on our quality checks on the libraries.
Qualifications
- MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience).
- 3+ years of experience.
- Strong background in advanced submicron process issues.
- Deep understanding of the build and verification of both conventional cell libraries and custom ROMs.
- Hands-on experience running SPICE simulation, and capability to adapt to new simulation tools.
- Experience with running EM/IR, aging, noise, margin, and high sigma variation simulations.
- Hands-on experience of DRC/LVS debug.
- Experience of designing and optimizing flip flops, level shifters, latches, and/or custom ROMs, register files, SRAM.
- Strong proficiency in scripting language, such as Perl, Tcl, Make, and automation methods/algorithms a certain plus.
