Singapore
FULL TIME
October 18, 2024
Description:
Company Overview
Ambiq's mission is to develop the lowest-power semiconductor solutions?to enable intelligent devices everywhere by developing the lowest-power semiconductor solutions to drive a more energy-efficient, sustainable, and data-driven world.?Ambiq has helped leading manufacturers worldwide develop products that last weeks on a single charge (rather than days), while delivering a maximum feature set in compact industrial designs. Ambiq's goal is to take Artificial Intelligence (AI) where it has never gone before in mobile and portable devices, using Ambiq's advanced ultra-low power system on chip (So C) solutions. Ambiq has shipped more than 250 million units by 2024. For more information, visit?www.ambiq.com.
Our innovative and fast-moving teams of research, development, production, marketing, sales, and operations are spread across several continents, including the US (Austin and San Jose), Taiwan (Hsinchu), China (Shenzhen and Shanghai), Japan (Tokyo), and Singapore. We value continued technology innovation, fanatical attention to customer needs, collaborative decision-making, and enthusiasm for energy efficiency. We embrace candidates who also share these same values. The successful candidate must be self-motivated, creative, and comfortable learning and driving exciting new technologies. We encourage and nurture an environment for growth and opportunities to work on complex, engaging, and challenging projects that will create a lasting impact. Join us on our quest for 100 billion devices. The endpoint intelligence revolution starts here.
Scope
We are looking for a skilled and experienced Standard cell library Characterization Engineer with strong expertise in Fin FET process technology. Your primary responsibility will be to lead and execute library characterization flows, methodologies and optimize standard cell PPA. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the quality, reliability, and efficiency of the standard cell libraries.

Specific Responsibilities
- Lead, drive and execute Standard cell characterization, QA flows and its methodology development, deliver library view generation to enable digital, analog and mixed signal design and Pn R flows
- Characterize and optimize standard cell libraries for Fin FET technology, focusing on performance, power, and area metrics. Collaborate with circuit designers and layout engineers to define library requirements and ensure adherence to design rules and guidelines.
- Develop and execute test plans for standard cell library characterization, including timing, power, noise, and reliability analyses. Conduct transistor-level simulations and circuit-level measurements to validate and optimize standard cell performance.
- Perform detailed analysis of characterization data, identify deviations and anomalies, and propose corrective actions. Work closely with process engineers to understand and mitigate process variations that may impact standard cell library performance.
- Collaborate with the design automation team to enhance characterization methodologies and develop automation scripts for efficient library characterization. Participate in technology node evaluations and provide recommendations for standard cell library optimizations based on technology roadmaps.
- Collaborate with product development teams to ensure smooth integration and validation of standard cell libraries in advanced chip designs. Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in Fin FET technology, standard cell design methodologies, and industry trends.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering with a minimum of 10 years of experience in standard cell design. This includes setting up library characterization flows and methodologies, QA flows, circuit design, layout, and simulation, with a strong emphasis on Fin FET technologies (e.g., 16nm, 12nm, 6nm, or below).
- Proficient in defining, characterizing, and executing custom digital and analog cells, low power management cells, level shifters, retention flops, GPIOs, and memories.
- Expertise in industry-standard EDA tools for transistor-level and circuit-level simulations, such as Cadence Virtuoso Liberate/LV/Mx/Trio, Virtuoso, ADE, Genus, Innovus and Tempus.
- Solid understanding of Fin FET technology and its impact on standard cell library design and characterization. Experience in characterizing standard cell libraries for advanced process nodes is highly desirable.
- Knowledge of standard cell architecture, design rules, and layout considerations. Familiarity with circuit and layout design, static timing analysis (STA), Physical design and power analysis methodologies.
- Strong analytical skills and attention to detail for data analysis and problem-solving.
- Excellent programming and scripting skills (e.g., Python, Perl, Tcl) for automation and data processing tasks.
- Effective communication and teamwork skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and present findings and recommendations.
