Join us and help make the future more wonderful for everyone.

We are looking for an experienced engineer to join the PDK Reliability Verification / EMIR team. This role will contribute to the development, qualification, and delivery of production-quality EM/IR reliability collateral and methodologies across advanced process technologies. The team owns PDK and related EMIR enablement and supports multiple EDA platforms including Synopsys Totem/Totem-SC and PrimeSim-EMIR, Cadence Voltus/Voltus-XFi, and Ansys RedHawk-SC. The work includes Custom and ASIC EMIR, advanced process enablement, 3DIC-related reliability verification, and thermal enablement.

Enable new process features and advanced interconnect structures across current and future process technologies. Debug complex modeling and correlation issues involving extraction, EM/IR analysis, PDK collateral, and EDA tools, working from root cause through validated resolution. Perform cross-tool/vendor correlation across supported EMIR platforms and drive issues to closure with EDA vendors. Work closely with PDK, Extraction, LVS, QnR, ASIC RV, design-flow, and customer-facing teams. Support adoption and qualification of next-generation solutions such as Totem-SC and emerging EMIR/extraction capabilities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
