About the role

  • ASIC Timing Engineer Etched is seeking an exceptional ASIC Timing Engineer to join our innovative team.
  • The candidate will be responsible for driving timing analysis and closure of our next-generation AI chips, ensuring that we meet the high-performance demands of our unique architecture.
  • How we're different: Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson.

Responsibilities

  • Etched is building AI chips that are hard-coded for individual model architectures.
  • Our first product (Sohu) only supports transformers, but has an order of magnitude more throughput and lower latency than a B200.
  • Drive timing analysis and closure of chips at block, cluster, and full chip level
  • Collaborate with Physical Design, DFX, Clocks, and other teams to develop timing closure strategies, create timing constraints, and ensure timing and power convergence, as well as ECO implementation
  • Work on timing closure of digital logic/macros in AMS designs/IPs, ensuring all aspects are addressed
  • Relocation support for those moving to Cupertino

Requirements

  • BS (or equivalent experience) in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 5+ years of experience, or MS (or equivalent experience) with 2+ years of experience in Timing and STA
  • Hands-on experience in full-chip/sub-chip Static Timing Analysis(STA)/Fishtail, Lint, CDC, RDC checks, and timing convergence, including timing constraints generation and management
  • Expertise in analyzing and fixing timing paths through ECOs, with a focus on crosstalk and noise analysis
  • In-depth knowledge of RTL to Netlist, industry-standard STA and timing convergence tools
  • Familiarity with deep sub-micron process nodes, including modeling and converging timing in these nodes
  • Experience in methodology and/or flow development, as well as automation

Skills

  • Etched believes in the Bitter Lesson.

Benefits

  • Full medical, dental, and vision packages, with 100% of premium covered, 90% for dependents
