Top Engineering Jobs

Explore AI/ML-assisted and self-adaptive memory design techniques for optimizing performance, power efficiency, robustness, and yield. Analyze memory assist methods, operating conditions, failure signatures, and process variations. Develop adaptive monitoring, prediction, voltage, timing, and read/write control techniques, then document, benchmark, and present the proposed architecture and design insights.

Leads physical implementation of analog IC subsystems including PMUs, clocking, and data converters. Responsibilities include floorplanning, transistor-level layout, matching, shielding, parasitic extraction, LVS/DRC closure, tape-out, validation, production test support, and layout review. Collaborates with analog, digital, RTL, physical design, product, and applications engineering teams. This is an onsite role requiring five days per week.

Leads specification, architecture, transistor-level design, verification, layout supervision, validation, and manufacturing test for complex analog IC subsystems. Partners with architecture, RTL, product, applications, and marketing teams; resolves cross-block issues; supports customer and manufacturing challenges; and mentors senior engineers without formal management responsibility.

Leads the analog design organization and sets architecture, specifications, methodology, and technical direction across multiple semiconductor programs. Directly designs or supervises critical transistor-level analog blocks, oversees verification, validation, layout, and production bring-up, and resolves high-risk technical issues. The role also mentors and manages engineers, chairs design reviews, partners with digital and product teams, supports customer and executive discussions, and drives improvements in tools, design flow, and IP reuse.

Lead system architecture for next-generation ultra-low-power AI SoCs from concept through production. Define processor, memory, interconnect, clocking, power, accelerator, and hardware/software partitioning strategies while managing power, performance, and area tradeoffs. Develop architecture specifications and models, evaluate IP, guide silicon implementation and validation, collaborate with customers and cross-functional engineering teams, and mentor architecture staff.

Responsible for post-silicon validation and characterization of analog and mixed-signal SoC subsystems. Develop validation plans, automate testing and data analysis, characterize silicon across process, voltage, and temperature, analyze performance, correlate results with simulation and production data, and debug analog, digital, firmware, power, and board-level interactions. The role also supports validation hardware, lab infrastructure, test coverage, yield improvement, and production readiness.

Develop and support embedded software for Ambiq SoCs, including drivers, HAL updates, board support packages, example applications, Zephyr enablement, debugging tools, and test software. Collaborate with hardware, software, field engineering, and customers to resolve complex system-level issues. Support evaluation platforms, customer applications, and silicon debug while producing application notes, knowledgebase content, and software design guidelines.

Designs and develops PCB-based evaluation hardware for low-power, ARM-based SoCs. Responsibilities include hardware architecture, schematic and layout design, system bring-up, lab debugging, manufacturing test development, customer hardware reviews, issue resolution, embedded software support, and creation of application notes and hardware design guidelines.

Own end-to-end digital design verification for complex SoCs at block, subsystem, and full-chip levels. Develop UVM/SystemVerilog testbenches, verification plans, constrained-random and directed tests, scoreboards, coverage models, and C/C++ SoC validation libraries. Automate regressions and reporting, debug failures, perform root-cause analysis, and collaborate with architecture, design, and software teams. The role requires managing verification milestones, risks, and deliverables through multiple successful tape-outs.

The Field Application Engineer supports global customers by aiding in the design-in process of Ambiq's low-power semiconductor solutions, optimizing energy efficiency, and developing hardware and software for embedded systems. Responsibilities include design reviews, customer collaboration, debugging, and presenting complex technical topics.
