Senior SRAM Circuit Design Engineer (Finance)

The Advanced Technology Group (ATG) at NVIDIA is an organization of process, CAD, design, and test engineers that works closely with foundry partners and internal design groups. The team defines and prototypes sophisticated process, design, and yield methodologies and ensures product groups are well-positioned for the next generation. We are looking to hire a skilled and creative SRAM circuit designer to help achieve these goals in a high-visibility position.

What you'll be doing:

• Program Management: Evaluate and explore the inner workings of foundry models and CAD tools, maintain testcases, automate PDK evaluation, and publish benchmarks
• Data Analysis: Extensive model-vs-silicon data analysis, exploring device and wire models, as well as higher-level SRAM bitcell issues like Vmin, Vmax, and Iread
• Product Guidance: Collaborate with architecture, RTL, place & route, DFT, CAD, circuit design, yield operations, and even external foundries to provide guidance and data analysis on RAM design issues, such as silicon bringup/yield, architectural planning, redundancy/repair, testing, low-voltage operation, and DRC/DFM impact
• Circuit Design: Transistor-level circuit design, layout implementation, physical and logical verification, and debug of SRAM macros and test structures for early test vehicles on advanced processes, focusing on design for testing and yield analysis
• Looking Ahead: Evaluate existing and pursue new memory design trends for applicability to future NVIDIA products and processes

What we need to see:

• BSEE minimum or equivalent experience, MSEE or PhD preferred
• 10+ years of SRAM design experience with strong background in layout, process understanding, and DRC rules on advanced FinFET processes
• Prior design experience in single-port, dual-port, multi-port, or register file SRAM-based macros required, including complex circuits like self-timed logic and senseamps
• Scripting ability to parse data and automate tasks
• Successful track record of delivering designs to production

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Self-motivation, attention to detail, and good written, verbal, and presentation skills are critical to success in this role
• Expertise with Vmin/Vmax assist techniques
• Foundry interface and program management skills
• Familiarity with Cadence SKILL
• Lab testing/debug experience
