New York, New York, United States Normal Computing Full time
Your Role in Our Mission:

We're developing a new thermodynamic computing paradigm to accelerate probabilistic AI workloads by embracing noise, rather than fighting it. As a key member of our silicon and hardware R&D team, you will play a crucial role in shaping the future of computing.

Responsibilities:
  • Develop and implement novel thermodynamic computing architectures, working closely with our silicon and hardware R&D team.
  • Design and implement analog and mixed-signal components in Cadence Virtuoso, including analog-to-digital converters, amplifiers, memory cells, and oscillators.
  • Perform layout, parasitic extraction, and optimization of our thermodynamic computing circuits.
  • Participate in the tape-out, bring-up, and testing of our silicon.
Requirements:
  • Experience working on analog-to-digital and/or digital-to-analog converters that push the envelope in terms of performance, power consumption, accuracy, or area.
  • Proficiency with VerilogA for modeling analog and mixed-signal circuits and devices, and experience leveraging those models to deliver system-level performance estimates.
  • Experience in Verilog and/or SystemVerilog, as well as scripting languages such as Python, Perl, and/or TCL.
  • Proficiency with Cadence Virtuoso for design and layout of analog blocks.
  • Understanding of design and layout techniques to minimize mismatch and parasitics while maximizing performance.
  • Strong understanding of design for manufacturability, transistor mismatch, and yield.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to work well on a small, interdisciplinary team.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with mixed-signal PLL design.
  • Experience with foundries & foundry aggregators to help acquire, set up, and support PDKs, set up and perform LVS and DRC flows, and tape out a completed silicon product.
  • Experience selecting, sourcing, and integrating third-party IP from multiple different vendors into a silicon product.
  • Familiarity with the wafer test, packaging, and chip testing process, including creating package drawings, writing test plans, and working with an external testing provider to implement testing at scale.
  • Experience working at a startup.
