Job description:

AMD is conducting an internship for Engineers

Job duties and responsibilities:

Job requires working with a large team designing variety of custom high-speed analog/digital/mixed-signal circuits that drive the next-generation CPUs/GPUs. Job will require:

Understanding the specs and architectures of design
Designing custom CMOS circuit level implementations
Creating measurements and verilog models of the design,
Generating the timing diagrams
Optimizing circuit behavior to meet performance
Provide optimized device geometries, placement and routing specs to mask designers.
Characterize circuit in circuit tools such as Hspice, Nanosim to verify they are meeting the spec.

Key responsibilities:

Ideal candidate will participate in all aspects of the development cycle for an IP; he/she will be expected to provide full ownership of specific components and drive assignments to completion:

Design and implement analog/digital/mixed-signal circuits that drive the next-generation CPUs/GPUs
Work on developing circuits & validating them for complex high-speed IPs like Serdes; ADC/DAC; LDOs; MIPI
Work on synthesis and physical implementation for high speed memory interfaces like DDR/GDDR and its controller
Work towards pre-silicon validation and testing of IPs in world class products
Engage in understanding power/performance/area tradeoffs during silicon design cycle
While developing these IPs, candidate will have to work on latest technology nodes
Actively participate in design reviews and discussions

Skills required:

Solid understanding of CMOS circuit design.
Course-work completion in all fundamental courses in VLSI design (microelectronics).
Strong analytical/problem solving skills and pronounced attention to details
Critical thinking skills creating and executing innovative solutions to solve complex problems.
Team player with positive attitude
Should be able to work with various stakeholders across the globe
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
Good troubleshooting skills and ability to debug tool and script failures.
Hands-on experience in transistor level simulations, preferably spice/spectre simulations
Knowledge of scripting language like TCL, Perl, Shell, SKILL.
