Mixed-signal ASIC Design and Integration Engineer
Introduction
Research engineers at IBM drive the leading edge of quantum computing technologies with the industry's most advanced hardware and software. Join an elite team of researchers and engineers building a path towards scalable fault tolerant quantum computation.
Your role and responsibilities
This role is for a mixed-signal ASIC designer that will contribute to the development of advanced high-performance circuits in advanced nodes for exploratory applications. We focus on circuit designs that enable the creation of differentiated solutions for a range of communication and computation challenges. Key areas of interest include analog, mixed-signal, and custom digital integrated circuit design applied to data communications applications. Experience with mixed-signal analog-on-top (AoT) or digital-on-top (DoT) integration design flows that leverage EDA-driven digital circuit design together with custom analog circuit design is a plus. Prior experience with interacting with semiconductor foundries to coordinate design releases is valuable. Experience in exploratory technologies such as non-conventional CMOS, heterogeneous integration, superconducting circuitry, or other exploratory application spaces that require critical thinking about hardware design requirements, novel packaging techniques, and end-to-end system specifications is highly desirable (but not required). Some prior experience in integrated circuit test is required: the candidate should have hands-on lab skills as they will be involved in all aspects of the project from concept to system integration and bring up.
