Promotion im Bereich KI-Methoden für den CMOS-Schaltungsentwurf

The Fraunhofer Society is looking for a researcher to investigate AI methods for digital circuit design. The successful candidate will analyze design and layout flows of Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) Silicon Digital Circuits and design (sub-) components of digital circuits.

Requirements

• Completed scientific academic studies (Master) in Electrical Engineering, Communications, Computer Science, or Microsystem Technology, or a comparable field of study
• Knowledge of the functioning of CMOS digital circuits and technologies for the realization of CMOS
• First experience in the digital field with regard to circuit design of CMOS components (e.g. with VHDL or SystemVerilog)
• Knowledge of the digital design process from RTL to GDSII is desirable
• Knowledge of design-flow tools (e.g. Xcelium, Genus, Innovus) as well as scripting languages (in particular Python) and AI frameworks (e.g. TensorFlow, PyTorch) is an advantage
• Independent, scientific working method and fast familiarity with new problem areas
• Good English, team and communication strength, as well as enthusiasm for experimental work

Benefits

• 100% remuneration according to TVöD
• Comprehensive additional benefits, such as a company pension (VBL) and a contribution to the Deutschland-Ticket/Jobticket
