Physical Design Engineer ICE

Silicon Physical Design Engineer Multiple roles across different levels Graphcore is a globally recognised leader in Artificial Intelligence computing systems. The company designs advanced semiconductors and data centre hardware that provide the specialised processing power needed to drive AI innovation, while delivering the efficiency required to support its broader adoption. As part of the SoftBank Group, Graphcore is a member of an elite family of companies responsible for some of the world’s most transformative technologies. We are opening a new AI Engineering Campus in Bengaluru which will play a central role in Graphcore's work building the future of AI computing. The physical design team sits within the wider silicon design team which includes RTL, verification and DFT. Our work also involves strong links with architecture, packaging and product engineering. We are responsible for working with those teams to create high-quality RTL and building the final chip layout (e.g. GDSII) ensuring a signoff-quality design is delivered to the Foundry (e.g. TSMC). We are looking to hire high-quality silicon physical design engineers to join our team. The successful candidate will support the team with achieving our goals and creating the right engineering solutions. We are a collaborative team and good communication is essential, as is the ability to adapt and learn. For the successful candidate we offer an open, honest and collaborative environment working on leading-edge designs at the most advanced nodes. Our engineers are not siloed, and they are trusted and encouraged to ta ke ownership of their designs and problem solutions. You will be part of a team that looks for improvements to everything we do: our designs, our flows, our methodologies, our infrastructure.
