Job description

Tesla's AI Hardware team is seeking a Staff SRAM Compiler Engineer to lead SRAM compilation, configuration, and validation for high-performance SoCs. The role involves collaborating with architecture teams to optimize memory macros for density, speed, and power efficiency, while also automating compilation flows using AI technologies.

Requirements

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field, or equivalent work experience
  • 7+ years of SRAM compiler and memory design experience on high-performance SoCs
  • Deep expertise in SRAM banking, configuration, and PPA optimization
  • Hands-on experience with industry memory compilers (ARM, Synopsys, Cadence, or equivalent)
  • Strong understanding of SRAM read/write power, leakage, and retention characteristics
  • Experience delivering complete SRAM macro views for physical implementation and signoff
  • Ability to use agentic AI flows to automate SRAM compilation, configuration sweeps, and validation

Responsibilities

  • Compile and validate SRAM macros across depth, width, port, and mux configurations using industry memory compilers
  • Partner with architecture teams to define banking strategies — evaluate tradeoffs between number of banks, port configurations, and access patterns to hit PPA targets
  • Optimize SRAM configurations for maximum bit-cell density and access speed — drive aspect ratio, redundancy, and compiler option choices
  • Analyze and minimize SRAM read and write power — characterize active, leakage, and retention power across PVT corners
  • Own delivery of all SRAM physical and logical views — GDS, LEF, Liberty timing models, and abstracts — validated for implementation and signoff
  • Build and maintain automated SRAM compilation flows using agentic AI to generate, configure, and validate memory macros across design variants
  • Support RTL teams on SRAM hook-up — review wrapper RTL, validate interface timing, and resolve connectivity and protocol issues
  • Drive SRAM BIST and redundancy integration — validate repair schemes and yield enhancement strategies
  • Characterize SRAM timing across MMMC corners and validate against STA signoff requirements
  • Evaluate new compiler releases and bit-cell options at advanced nodes — benchmark PPA against current baselines

Benefits

  • Employees at Tesla are often offered day-one coverage with multiple medical options (some at $0 paycheck cost), dental/vision, company HSA contributions, a 401(k) match, and equity programs. Most roles also include paid time off and holidays, family-building support, employee assistance, commuter and childcare benefits, and access to discounts and wellness programs.
