Technical Staff Engineer-Design - CA - San Jose - Holger, United States
$91,000 - $232,000 USD yearly
Originally posted 24 August 2026 by the employer.
The role involves analog compute-in-memory (CIM) using SuperFlash technology for neural networks.
About the role
This role involves the design, development, and integration of analog circuit blocks for Flash-IP and memBrain IP. This includes analog compute-in-memory (CIM) based on SuperFlash technology for neural networks, enabling ultra-low-power AI inference.
What you'll do
- Design, develop, and integrate analog circuit blocks for Flash-IP and memBrain IP.
- Simulate and validate analog circuit blocks and Flash-IP macros to meet performance, quality, and reliability.
- Coordinate with engineers from design, technology, process, and testing departments.
- Interface with marketing teams and customers to support embedded flash memory macros and address specific requirements.
What you'll need
- BSEE with 10 years+ of experience in analog design.
- Experience in leading analog design aspects of product development, including architecture definition, circuit implementation, and validation.
- Experience in non-volatile memory design (HV circuits, charge pump generation and regulation, references, sensing, read circuits).
- Experience in silicon validation, debug, and testing.
- Experience in CAD tools (HSPICE/FINESIM, Verilog, Cadence Design Entry, LPE, EMIR) for design flow.
Nice to have
- Experience in data conversion circuits (DAC, ADC).
- Experience in communication circuits (PLL, DLL, LVDS, HS interfaces).
- Experience in regulation circuits (LDO, digital LDO) and references (bandgap, bias).
- Knowledge of scripting languages (Python, Tcl).
- AI Tool adoption.
- Knowledge in Semiconductor device physics.
- Neural network knowledge (e.g., MLP, CNN, Transformer, LMM) with PTQ and/or HAT for HW implementation.
