Job Description

Eridu AI is a Silicon Valley hardware startup focused on accelerating training and inference performance for large AI models. Today’s AI model performance is often gated by infrastructure bottlenecks. Eridu AI introduces multiple industry-first innovations across semiconductors, software and systems to deliver solutions that improve AI data center performance to increase GPU utilization while simultaneously reducing capex and power. Eridu AI’s solution and value proposition have been widely validated with several hyperscalers. The company is led by a veteran team of Silicon Valley executives and engineers with decades of experience in state-of-the-art semiconductors, optics, software, and systems, including serial entrepreneur Drew Perkins, co‑founder of Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN), Lightera (acq. by Ciena), Gainspeed (acq. by Nokia) and Mojo Vision (world’s leading micro‑LED display company and developer of the first augmented reality contact lens). Key Responsibilities: Define the Physical Assembly of SOC, involving all aspects of physical design functions such as P&R, timing, floorplan, clocking, electrical analysis, and power. Proficiency in synthesis design constraints (SDC). Design and architect top‑level and block‑level floor planning of the entire SoC. Sound proficiency in either Innovus or Synopsys Fusion Compiler. Proficiency in synthesis, floor planning, power planning and timing closure are required. Prior experience with large skew‑optimized clock tree designs like H‑Tree preferred. Clock grid exposure is a plus. Work extensively with micro‑architects to perform feasibility studies and explore performance, power & area (PPA) trade‑offs for design closure. Develop physical design methodologies and customize recipes across various implementation steps to optimize PPA. Work with a multi‑functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design by running all sign‑off flows such as timing, power, EM/IR, PDV. Qualifications Master’s degree or bachelor’s degree in EE with a minimum of 10+ years of experience. Knowledge using synthesis, place & route, analysis and verification CAD tools. Familiarity with logic & physical design principles to drive low‑power & higher‑performance designs. Fluency in scripting in some of these languages: Unix, Perl, Python, and TCL. Good understanding of device physics and experience in deep sub‑micron technologies 7nm or below. Knowledge of Verilog and System Verilog. Excellent problem‑solving skills, written and verbal communication, excellent organization skills, and highly self‑motivated. Ability to work well in a team and be productive under aggressive schedules. Prior experience of multiple tape‑out in deep sub‑micron 7nm or below is required. Why Join Us?
