Your Team, Your Impact

Our Coherent DSP (CDSP) team develops advanced SoCs powering next generation coherent optical communication systems. These SoCs integrate complex DSP pipelines for high speed data transmission. Within this context, our Custom Digital Design group focuses on specialized custom IP that delivers significant power and area savings compared to RTL implementations. This work is critical to achieving the energy efficiency and performance targets of our coherent DSP solutions.

What You Can Expect

• Partner with SoC/DSP architects to identify power‑critical blocks for custom implementation and define partitioning that maximizes PPA benefits.
• Own portions of the custom IP design and verification flow: floorplanning, schematic/layout co‑optimization, characterization, views, and sign‑off.
• Apply advanced custom‑digital techniques to achieve best‑in‑class PPA on coherent DSP datapaths (e.g., FIR/equalization, resampling, gain/DC handling).
• Support integration into the SoC flow: timing closure, EM/IR, DFT (scan at interface, LBIST in wrapper), and silicon bring‑up.
• Develop automation (TCL, Python, shell) for netlist analysis, characterization, and collateral generation.
• Structured training will be provided across analog design, digital design, and custom layout, including CAD flows, SPICE/Fast-SPICE simulation, timing/EMIR fundamentals, and our end-to-end custom digital design & verification flow.
• Collaborate with global teams while building the Argentina design hub for coherent DSP.

Key Techniques & Methodologies

• Layout‑Aware Optimization: Communication‑driven floorplanning to minimize critical interconnect and power hotspots.
• Custom Cells: Application‑specific cells for better PPA than generic gates.
• Flow & Tools: Full sign‑off flow including STA, EM/IR, parasitic extraction, and SPICE/Fast‑SPICE validation

What We're Looking For

• BSc/MSc in Electrical/Computer Engineering or related field.
• Experience in PCB design and CAD tools (required).
• Experience with SPICE tools and analog design & IC layout (required).
• Basic knowledge of digital design and DSP fundamentals (nice to have, not mandatory).
• Familiarity with EDA flows for timing, physical verification, and EM/IR is a plus.
• Proficiency in TCL/Python/shell for design automation.
• Proficient in English (both spoken and written) and possessing strong teamwork/communication skills.
