Digital Circuit Design Engineer.

Imagine what you can do here. Apple is a place where extraordinary people gather to do their lives best work. Together we create products and experiences people once couldn't have imagined, and now, can't imagine living without. It's the diversity of those people and their ideas that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do.

Description

APPLE INC has the following available in Austin, Texas. Design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM design. Work with an extraordinary logic/architecture team to formulate design specifications. Define architecture/topologies optimizing for power, timing, area and yield. Perform schematic capturing, simulations/analysis, and margin verifications. Responsible for functional equivalency and DFT modeling. Work with layout team to create optimal GDS. Verify extracted GDS meets design specifications. Responsible for backend verification of layout, including IR/Electromechanical analysis. Write RTL, validating use-cases, verifying against design schematics. Support post-silicon effort to enable productization. 40 hours/week.
