Analog Design Engineer: DRAM & CIM Memory Architect

Normal Computing Corporation; Palo Alto (CA); On-site; USD 130,000 - 210,000; Full time

Job summary

Normal Computing is seeking an Analog Hardware Engineer in Palo Alto to build core mixed-signal technology for our unconventional computing architecture. You will design analog circuits, create library cells and macros, and support end-to-end development from schematic to silicon bring-up with close collaboration across silicon architecture, digital, and layout teams.

You will drive memory design exploration (SRAM/DRAM) and CIM architectures while advancing noise and variation mitigation.

Qualifications

• Experience developing analog IP from spec to GDSII, including tape-out and bring-up.
• Hands-on memory technology work on SRAM/DRAM at core level and peripheral circuits.
• Fluent with Cadence flow: Virtuoso, Spectre, Assembler, Extraction, Layout, HSMC, Characterization.

Responsibilities

• Lead the full analog development cycle from clean-sheet design through parasitic extraction to silicon bring-up.
• Develop or acquire analog IP for use in Normal Silicon.
• Acquire or direct analog EDA tool development.
• Evaluate memory designs, including SRAM, DRAM, and CIM architectures.
