Introduction
Ayo is a venture-backed early-stage startup that will radically re-define how humanity performs compute for AI. Our photonic processors will provide orders of magnitude improvement in speed and power efficiency in comparison to conventional digital compute platforms by taking advantage of the natural parallelism, speed and energy efficiency of light.
We are seeking a lead mixed signal electronic ASIC engineer to serve as a core team member who will be among the first employees of the company. You will build and lead the electronic ASIC team at Ayo, leveraging your prior experience and tapeout successes to stand-up a world-class mixed-signal ASIC design and test capability at Ayo. You will work collaboratively with other functions to co-design and co-package your electronic ASICs with Ayo’s integrated photonic chips, to bring-up and test your electronic integrated circuits, and to realize successful demonstrations and product prototypes. You will set the cadence for the tapeout cycle and will be responsible for schematic capture, layout, and verification of your circuits. The ideal candidate has strong fundamentals in analog and mixed signal design of application specific integrated circuits and has taped out numerously at major foundries such as Global Foundries, TSMC, etc.
Responsibilities:
Hire a world-class team of ASIC engineers to support your development responsibilities
Define the architecture and specifications for mixed-signal ASICs that control and interface with Ayo’s photonic integrated circuits
Perform schematic capture, layout, and verification for mixed-signal integrated circuits with elements including digital-to-analog converters, analog-to-digital converters, transimpedance amplifiers, and transconductance amplifiers
Define and oversee packaging and test requirements and flows for your integrated circuits
Ensure successful bring-up and test of your integrated circuits
Provide expertise and support to other Ayo team members
Be interested, curious, and willing to take on the entire scope of ASIC development
Qualifications:
PhD in electrical engineering
5+ years experience designing, simulating, and testing analog & mixed signal integrated circuits
Has taped out at a major commercial foundry a minimum of three times
Proficiency with standard EDA tools such as Cadence or Synopsys
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience collaborating with integrated photonics teams
Experience with advanced packaging such as 2.5D / 3D integration
