We are looking for a highly skilled CAD Staff Engineer – Analog & Digital Simulation to develop, optimize, and support advanced circuit simulation and verification flows. This role combines EDA/CAD engineering, analog circuit simulation, software development, automation, and AI-enabled engineering workflows to improve productivity, simulation efficiency, and pre-silicon quality.

The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in circuit simulation methodologies, EDA tools, Linux-based engineering environments, and scripting/programming. You will work closely with memory and circuit design teams to solve complex technical challenges, develop scalable CAD solutions, and introduce innovative automation and AI-assisted flows.

Requirements

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Partner closely with memory design and circuit engineering teams to understand simulation challenges and develop complete, scalable solutions.
• Develop, optimize, and maintain advanced analog and digital circuit simulation flows.
• Identify opportunities to improve existing CAD processes, tools, methodologies, and engineering workflows.
• Develop clean, scalable, maintainable software systems and automation frameworks.
• Debug complex circuit simulation issues and provide effective technical solutions.
• Evaluate emerging EDA tools and technologies and integrate suitable solutions into existing CAD flows.
• Collaborate with EDA vendors on tool evaluation, technical issues, integration, and flow improvements.
• Develop and deploy AI-enabled methodologies for circuit simulation and verification.
• Lead implementation of agentic AI and automated workflows, including copilot-based assistants and rule-aware automation.
• Integrate AI-assisted tools into engineering workflows to improve productivity, quality, and problem-solving effectiveness.
• Identify, test, validate, and share AI-enabled improvements within the engineering organization.
• Develop automation using Python, Perl, TCL, Shell, and SKILL as appropriate.
• Support simulation infrastructure and workflows across Linux-based engineering environments and compute systems such as LSF.
• Provide technical leadership, mentoring, and guidance to junior CAD and engineering team members.
• Work with global engineering teams and stakeholders to understand requirements and deliver robust solutions.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of simulation methodologies, productivity, reliability, and pre-silicon quality.

WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT

• 5+ years of professional experience in CAD/EDA engineering, circuit simulation, semiconductor design automation, or a related field; 8+ years of experience in analog circuit simulation flows is preferred.
• Strong expertise in analog circuit simulation methodologies and simulation-flow development.
• Hands-on experience with circuit simulators such as FineSim, PrimeSim, XA, Spectre, VCS, Xcelium, or equivalent platforms.
• Strong experience debugging complex circuit simulation issues and understanding advanced circuit design methodologies.
• Hands-on experience with Cadence Virtuoso, Virtuoso-L, Virtuoso-XL, schematic capture, or Synopsys Custom Compiler or equivalent tools.
• Strong programming and automation skills using Python and/or Perl, preferably with object-oriented programming experience.
• Good understanding of CMOS concepts, analog circuits, digital fundamentals, and semiconductor design flows.
• Strong knowledge of Linux, LSF, Shell scripting, TCL, and Cadence SKILL.
• Experience developing scalable CAD tools, automation frameworks, and simulation workflows.
• Practical experience applying AI/ML or AI-assisted automation to engineering, simulation, or verification workflows.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills with the ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues.
• Experience working with global engineering teams, EDA vendors, and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Knowledge of parasitic extraction tools such as StarRC or Quantus is an advantage.
• Experience with EM/IR analysis and Static Timing Analysis (STA) is an advantage.
• Strong technical leadership skills with the ability to mentor engineers and drive engineering improvements.
• Ability to use AI-enabled tools responsibly and effectively for research, analysis, automation, problem-solving, and engineering productivity.
