Senior Analog Mixed-Signal Design Engineer

About Us: Mythic’s platform delivers the power of desktop GPU in a single low-power chip, supporting inference for large deep neural networks. Mythic's technology is based upon an entirely new hybrid digital/analog flash calculation using non-volatile memory arrays which has been under development since 2012.  This step change in performance enables a range of new applications in many markets, including safety and security, autonomous vehicles, VR/AR, robotics, and media.  Mythic’s AI hardware combines knowledge across many domains, including AI, compilers, computer architecture, analog circuits, and non-volatile memories. Mythic will enable the future of AI by building analog-compute hardware platforms that are 100-1000x more efficient than conventional all-digital systems

About the role: We are looking for a highly experienced analog and mixed-signal designer who excels working in large complex systems with and enjoys utilizing a broad set of skills. This person will do everything from low-level SPICE simulations to top-level algorithm development in python and SystemVerilog/RNM, all while ensuring interfaces, specifications, and features are clear between multiple teams.

Requirements for the position include: Years of experience using the Cadence Virtuoso IC design environment for both analog and mixed-signal design and verification

Experience modeling circuits in order of preference:

Real Number Modeling (systemVerilog)

Python/Numpy

MATLAB

Experience tracking and communicating mixed-signal interface requirements/specifications

Ability to work cross-functional teams with humility

Excellent communication skills, especially resolving ambiguity

Additional attributes that set you apart: ADC/DAC design experience

multiple architectures a plus

Some PLL, SERDES, and sensing candidate backgrounds are highly relevant

Chip-level experience:

EM/IR

ESD

Power distribution modeling

Experience developing calibration and test algorithms

Mixed-signal interface experience

Have designed your own digital controller or at least worked directly with digital engineers and owned the co-verification

Automotive or other High-Reliability engineering experience

Cadence tool setup and infrastructure knowledge (reasonable ability to debug)

Strength in linux (reasonable ability to debug)
