Job description

The role of SRAM Circuit Designer within the Digital Custom Group involves designing and implementing custom digital circuits for SRAM. You will work closely with a talented logic and architecture team to define specifications and optimize designs for power, timing, area, and yield. This position is crucial in influencing CPU, GPU, SoC, and Neural Engine designs in Apple's Custom Silicon group. You will also engage in post-silicon efforts to enable productization, contributing to groundbreaking products like the M1 and A14 Bionic.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field.
  • A minimum of 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience within a SoC design cycle.
  • Knowledge of Cache design 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.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement custom digital circuits for SRAM design.
  • Work with the logic and 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.

Benefits

  • 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. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
