Your Role and ResponsibilitiesYour Job: Electronic Design Automation
Our processors integrate billions of transistors, that are clocked with up to 5.5 GHz. The complexity of the circuits can only be managed by the use the latest development tools. The electronic design automation (EDA) team develops the needed algorithms and tools with a focus on physical design. The diverse physical design tasks that can be solved with EDA tool support include
- Ideal placement of circuits (floorplanning, placement)
- Ideal wire connections between circuits (routing)
- Optimization of the net list according to several optimization goals
- Automatic generation of transistor and circuit layouts
- And many more
Required Technical and Professional Expertise
- Masters degree or PhD in Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or similar fields of study
- Good programming skills and knowledge of data structures
- Knowledge in development, test, maintenance and debugging of EDA software in C++ and Python to solve complex problems in VLSI design areas
- Knowledge in electronic design automation principles and methods
- Hands–on experience in electronic design automation desirable
- Knowledge in the basics of circuit design optimization of ASICs or processors
- Strong intrinsic motivation
- Strong team player and open minded to work in an international team
