The SRAM Circuit Designer role is part of Apple's Digital Custom Group, focusing on designing and implementing custom digital circuits for SRAM. This position plays a critical role in the silicon design effort, influencing CPU, GPU, SoC, and Neural Engine designs. The designer will collaborate with a talented team to bring innovative ideas to life and ensure high-performance products reach customers quickly. Candidates should have extensive experience in SoC design cycles and a strong understanding of circuit design principles.

• BS degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience
• Experience within a SoC design cycle, developing circuits and SRAM/Register File for low power, low voltage, and high performance
• Knowledge of Cache design/architecture and memory hierarchy
• Working knowledge of RTL modeling
• Solid understanding of industry-standard design tools
• Deep understanding of nanometer device physics and leakage mechanisms
• Ability to devise experiments and analyze data for silicon debug
• Familiarity with Machine Learning algorithms and scripting is a plus

• Design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM design
• Work with the logic/architecture team to formulate design specifications
• Define architecture and topologies optimizing for power, timing, area, and yield
• Conduct schematic capture, simulations, analysis, and margin verifications
• Perform functional equivalency and DFT modeling
• Collaborate with the layout team to create optimal GDS
• Verify that extracted GDS meets design specifications
• Conduct backend verification, including IR and EM analysis
• Write RTL, validate use-cases, and verify against design schematics
• Support post-silicon efforts to enable productization

• Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life.
