EDA Tools & Design Automation Engineer

Required

• You have 5+ years of experience supporting, configuring, or automating semiconductor EDA tools in an analog, mixed-signal, custom-design, CAD, or methodology environment.
• You’re a strong Python engineer with experience in Tcl and/or Cadence SKILL, Linux-based EDA environments, and GUI or batch-flow integrations.
• You apply software best practices—including version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, documentation, and maintainable design—and have experience with AI-assisted development tools.
• You’re analytical and collaborative, able to troubleshoot complex issues and work effectively with CAD, PDK, infrastructure, layout, and design teams. A relevant degree or equivalent practical experience is welcome.
• Own the deployment, configuration, reliability, and evolution of the EDA environment for Tenstorrent’s mixed-signal design teams.
• Develop, test, release, and support AI-enabled automation and workflows, primarily in Python, with Tcl or Cadence SKILL integrations as needed.
• Partner with Design Automation and CAD to build workflows, configure tools and PDKs, qualify supported versions, and maintain reproducible environments.
• Help standardize automation conventions, interfaces, and data formats, and resolve tool, configuration, PDK, and workflow issues. Experience with Cadence and Synopsys custom flows, OpenAccess, verification, extraction, simulation, or Slurm/HPC is a plus.
• What You Will Learn
• How mixed-signal design teams use EDA tools and automation across the design lifecycle.
• How to evolve AI-enabled workflows that support faster, more reliable design iteration.
• How tool and PDK configurations, qualification, and reproducible environments enable scalable design flows.
