Job Description:
The world is transforming - and so is Intel. Intel is a company of bold and curious inventors and problem solvers who create some of the most astounding technology advancements and experiences in the world. With a legacy of relentless innovation and a commitment to bring smart, connected devices to every person on Earth, our diverse and brilliant teams are continually searching for tomorrow's technology and revel in the challenge that changing the world for the better brings. We work every single day to design and manufacture silicon products that empower people's digital lives. Come join us and do something wonderful.
Intel Integrated Photonics Solutions (IPS) is at the forefront of silicon photonics integration and is part of The Data Center Group which is at the heart of Intel's transformation from a PC company to a company that powers the cloud and billions of smart, connected computing-devices. Since announcing the world's first hybrid silicon laser nearly a decade ago, our team continues to lead the industry with cutting-edge technology and efficient, scalable high-volume manufacturing. Our dedication to advanced development ensures that Intel Silicon Photonics continues to drive future data center bandwidth growth with smaller form factors, co-packaging and higher speeds from 400G today to 1.6T+ and beyond tomorrow. We are looking for great talent to accelerate this journey so if you are interested in joining our leading organization then we want to hear from you.
In this role, the EDA Engineer, the individual will be involved in leading/developing key CAD/design sign-off/tape out methodologies for high-speed mixed signal IC designs leading to High Volume Manufacturing (HVM) products. In this position, working on the development and support of next generation IC and Photonics design flows for Analog Mixed-Signal, Digital, ASIC or full custom circuits. As an experienced EDA engineer in the team, you will be required to assume a technical leadership role in the development of these design flows for multiple engineering customers (Internal or External) using industry standard EDA software such as Cadence, Mentor, Synopsys, etc. You will be responsible for new EDA tool evaluations, selections, support, collateral (PDK) configurations or CAD flow development for electronic ICs for Silicon Photonics products.
Responsibilities:
• Ensures the efficient planning, provisioning, installation/configuration, maintenance, and/or operations of the hardware and software infrastructure required to build, validate, and release a wide variety of hardware and software products and projects.
• Works closely with development and quality teams to derive infrastructure design requirements, build, test, and automate tools appropriate to the project, and/or implements and maintains of those systems within the constraints imposed by Intel enterprise infrastructure (IT) and other governing bodies.
• Owns the end-to-end delivery pipeline, including source code management, versioning/tagging strategy, component build and packaging, test automation tooling, release staging, acceptance and/or indicators, required security and IP scans, any third-party conformance tools, artifact storage and distribution, and disaster-recovery planning.
• Identifies opportunities and implements solutions for increased automation, reliability, and/or velocity within the pipeline through implementation of robust infrastructure telemetry, KPIs, and indicators, and by monitoring and applying industry best-practices.
• Provide guidance to junior infrastructure and DevOps, designers, and layout engineers. Participate in concept, schematic and final design reviews for circuit blocks.
