We are looking for a passionate individual who demonstrates initiative, takes ownership, respects commitments, and exhibits a high level of autonomy and spirit of innovation. The ideal candidate would be a multitasking and creative digital IC/ASIC designer. You will be responsible for designing digital circuits (IPs - Intellectual Properties) to be integrated in the digital part of the neuromorphic vision sensor to improve its capabilities. To Do that you will be involved in debug phase to ensure functionality, PPA, and quality of the delivered IP before Tape-Out. Finally, you will be involved in real chip evaluation in Laboratory (Bring-Up phase) when it will be back from the foundry.
This is a great opportunity to join a state-of-the-art neuromorphic sensor company to lead a paradigm shift in computer vision across many industries. The day-to-day working environment is a small but impacting Digital Front End IC team (~7-10 people). You will be in contact with plenty of other engineering fields (Analog IC team, Systems Team, Software Algorithm team, etc..) and will also participate in silicon bring-up in laboratory when back from foundry.
Primary:
Ensure support during: Chip Bring-Up, chip characterization, chip validation, test development phases, post-sales technical issues.
Secondary:
MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or similar
8+ years of hands-on experience in Digital IC design.
Strong experience in creating ASIC IP (microarchitecture definition, implementation, verification, evaluation)
Experience in STA/LINT/SVA-PSL, Python, Linux environment with knowledge in scripting, debugging and programming (Shell, TCL, Perl).
Knowledge in image sensor processing, USB, I3C, I2C, SPI, DCMI, LVDS, MIPI protocols is interesting.
Personal skills: Strong problem-solving skills, strong analytical skills. Flexible to dynamic environments and fast changing technologies. Passionate about technology. This person must work well with other engineers in a team environment. Good sense of autonomy. Must be pragmatic and self-motivated to complete a task even if it is outside of just the “well known” realm. “Can Do Attitude” is preferred.
