Analog Hardware Engineer — Mixed-Signal & CIM Innovator

Normal Computing Corporation; Palo Alto (CA); On-site; USD 170,000 - 250,000; Full time

Job summary

Normal Computing is seeking an Analog Hardware Engineer to build the core mixed-signal technology powering our unconventional computing architecture. You will design analog circuits, create library cells and macros, and own end-to-end analog development from concept to silicon bring-up.

Collaborating with silicon, digital and layout teams, you will drive memory design evaluations (SRAM/DRAM) and ensure high throughput-per-watt.

Qualifications

• Experience developing analog IP from spec to GDSII and tape-out.
• Experience with memory technologies (SRAM/DRAM) at core level.
• Design and characterize custom bitcells in schematic and layout.
• Fluency with Cadence flow: Virtuoso, Spectre, Assembler, Extraction, Layout, HSMC, Characterization.

Responsibilities

• Lead the full analog development cycle from concept to silicon bring-up.
• Develop or acquire analog IP for Normal Silicon.
• Direct analog EDA tool development and integration.
• Evaluate memory designs (SRAM/DRAM) and CIM architectures.
