Responsibilities

Upscale is developing next-generation high-speed connectivity solutions for AI infrastructure and data centers. We are looking for highly motivated summer interns to work alongside our experienced engineering team on advanced SerDes and analog/mixed-signal integrated circuit design.
This internship offers hands-on opportunities to explore challenging problems at the intersection of high-speed circuit design, digital signal processing, and AI-driven engineering methodologies. Depending on your background and interests, you may contribute to one or more of the following areas:
High-Speed ADC Design and Modeling: Research and develop high-performance ADC architectures for next-generation SerDes receivers, including sampling architectures, time-interleaved ADCs, calibration techniques, and optimization of speed, resolution, power, and linearity.
Foundation IP Development: Contribute to the design, modeling, characterization, and optimization of foundation analog/mixed-signal IP blocks that enable next-generation SerDes, including clocking, data conversion, calibration, and related circuit building blocks.
AI-Driven Circuit Design: Develop and apply AI/ML techniques to accelerate circuit design, optimization, modeling, and verification. Explore automated design-space exploration, intelligent parameter optimization, surrogate modeling, and AI-assisted engineering workflows.
Ultra-Low-Jitter PLL Design and Modeling: Explore advanced PLL architectures for high-speed communication systems, including low-jitter clock generation, digitally intensive PLL architecture and design. Investigate phase-noise performance, jitter optimization, and high-precision modeling of the PLL in the digital domain.
Collaborate with experienced engineers to investigate challenging circuit and system-level design problems.
Develop analytical models, behavioral simulations, and circuit-level simulations to evaluate new architectures and design approaches.
Build scripts and tools to automate simulation, data analysis, optimization, and design workflows.
Explore novel algorithms and circuit techniques to improve performance, power efficiency, robustness, and design productivity.
Present technical findings, simulation results, and design recommendations to the engineering team.
Where appropriate, contribute to circuit implementation, verification, characterization, or silicon measurement activities.
