Graphcore, a leader in AI computing systems and member of the SoftBank Group, is opening a new AI Engineering Campus in Bengaluru. The physical design team is responsible for creating high-quality chip layouts (GDSII) and ensuring signoff-quality designs are delivered to foundries like TSMC. As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you will contribute technically to the development of next-generation AI superchips, focusing on robust, high-performance, and power-efficient designs in leading-edge process technologies while meeting ambitious development schedules.
Key responsibilities include: using state-of-the-art EDA tools and in-house Graphcore flows to deliver final designs; enhancing existing flows and in-house tools/APIs to support new features and methodologies; analyzing and debugging complex engineering problems to develop workable solutions; and developing understanding of emerging technical issues to optimize in-house flows and methodologies. You will work closely with other teams within Graphcore (RTL, verification, DFT, architecture, packaging, product engineering) and with third-party support engineers and contractors.
The physical design team operates in a collaborative, open environment where engineers are trusted and encouraged to take ownership of their designs and problem solutions. You will be part of a team that continuously seeks improvements to designs, flows, methodologies, and infrastructure. Good communication skills, adaptability, and a willingness to learn are essential. The role requires a degree in Electronic/Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field with 3+ years of industry experience in physical design.
