What You'll Be Doing:
- Run transistor-level simulations on digital standard cells using PrimeSim or FineSim to extract timing, power, and leakage data across PVT corners
- Analyze CMOS circuit behavior at the transistor level, reviewing schematics, debugging simulation failures, and identifying issues in logic implementation or device models
- Support characterization and validation of standard cell libraries by running automated flows, reviewing results, and flagging anomalies or quality issues
- Document simulation results and circuit-level observations in clear, structured reports that senior engineers can act on
- Collaborate with library development engineers to improve characterization methodologies and refine automation scripts
- Learn and apply concepts from Liberty (.lib) format, Static Timing Analysis, and low-power design through real library development cycles
What You'll Need:
- Completed B.E/B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering or a related field (Mandatory).
- Fresh graduates from the class of 2026 or 2025.
- Not currently enrolled / completed any M-Tech programs or postgraduate diplomas.
- Not employed in any full-time positions at any company (limited internship experience is acceptable).
- Strong understanding of CMOS fundamentals including MOSFET operation, inverter characteristics, delay, power dissipation, and leakage mechanisms
- Solid knowledge of digital logic design including combinational and sequential circuits, timing concepts like setup, hold, recovery, and removal
- Familiarity with at least one circuit simulator such as PrimeSim or FineSim, and the ability to read and debug transistor-level schematics
- Learn and apply concepts from Liberty (.lib) format, Static Timing Analysis, and low-power design as you work through real library development cycles
- Comfort working in Linux or Unix environments, basic scripting knowledge in Python, Perl, Tcl, or Shell is a plus
- Exposure to standard cell libraries, Liberty format, or Static Timing Analysis concepts is a plus
