Senior Engineer – RV (EM/IR)

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly motivated Senior Engineer – EM/IR to join the Physical Design and Signoff team. In this role, you will be responsible for performing power integrity analysis including IR drop and electromigration (EM) checks for advanced-node SoC designs. You will work closely with Physical Design, Power, and Package teams to ensure robust power delivery network implementation and reliable signoff closure. The ideal candidate should have strong fundamentals in power integrity analysis, signoff methodologies, and advanced-node implementation challenges.

What You’ll Do

Perform block-level and full-chip IR drop and electromigration (EM) analysis for advanced-node designs
Analyze and debug static and dynamic IR violations to achieve power integrity signoff closure
Collaborate with Physical Design, Floorplanning, CTS, Routing, and Package teams to optimize power delivery networks
Run and interpret power integrity analysis across multiple operating conditions and scenarios
Support EM analysis by evaluating current density, reliability limits, and thermal impacts
Develop and improve IR/EM automation flows, scripts, and signoff methodologies
Support tapeout activities and ensure clean IR/EM signoff delivery

What We’re Looking For

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or VLSI-related discipline
5+ years of experience in EM/IR analysis, power integrity, or Physical Design signoff roles
Strong understanding of static and dynamic IR drop analysis, electromigration concepts, and power grid optimization
Hands-on experience with industry-standard tools such as Cadence Voltus, Ansys RedHawk, or equivalent
Good understanding of Physical Design flow including floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, and extraction
Proficiency in Tcl, Perl, Python, or Shell scripting for automation and flow enhancement

Good to Have

Experience with advanced technology nodes such as 7nm, 5nm, or below
Exposure to package-aware analysis, thermal analysis, and low-power methodologies
Understanding of power-aware signoff methodologies and reliability verification flows

Success in This Role Looks Like

Achieving clean IR/EM signoff with robust power integrity across all operating conditions
Efficient identification and resolution of power integrity and reliability issues
Improved productivity through automation and methodology enhancements
Successful collaboration across cross-functional teams leading to timely tapeout execution

About TylSemi, Inc.

The Opportunity

The AI infrastructure market is exploding. Every hyperscaler, every cloud provider, every AI company is building custom silicon. But they all face the same problem: how do you connect hundreds of chips, deliver clean power at scale, and move terabits of data without melting the package?

That's what we solve. TylSemi builds the chiplet infrastructure IP — the IO, power delivery, and interconnect building blocks — that makes AI/HPC systems actually work at scale.

This isn't a nice-to-have. It's the critical path.

Why Now

The Market Window

The semiconductor industry is going through its biggest architectural shift in 40 years:

Moore's Law is dead. 2nm and beyond delivers marginal performance gains. The future is chiplets, not monolithic dies.
Custom silicon is now mainstream. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, OpenAI — they're all designing their own ASICs. The $50B custom silicon market is growing 30% annually.
IO and power are the bottleneck. Solve hard problems and provide something which is a category in itself.

Translation: We're entering the market at exactly the moment when every major AI/HPC player needs what we're building, and their alternatives are disappearing.

Culture & Team: How We Work

No Politics, No Bureaucracy

There are no layers, no approval chains, no corporate theater.

If you have an idea, we test it. If it works, we ship it.
No endless meetings, no PowerPoint presentations to convince middle management.

Remote-Friendly, Global Team

US team: Bay Area preferred, but we hire the best people regardless of location
India team: Building a world-class design center in Bangalore

Move Fast, Ship Real Products

We're not a research project. We have paying customers, committed capital, and aggressive timelines.

This is a company, not a lifestyle business. We're building to win.

What We Value

Ownership mindset. You're not here to execute someone else's roadmap. You're here to define it.
Bias for action. We move fast. Analysis paralysis doesn't fly here.
Deep technical expertise. This is hard engineering. We need people who've shipped real silicon and debugged real hardware.
Low ego, high standards. We don't care about titles or politics. We care about results.

The Ask

If you're reading this, you're probably comfortable. You have a good job at a stable company with all the benefits.

We're asking you to walk away from that and bet on us.

Here's Why You Should

The market is real. AI infrastructure spending is $200B+ annually and growing 40% YoY. Every hyperscaler needs what we're building.
The team has done this before. We've built and exited semiconductor companies at scale. This isn't our first rodeo.
The traction is de-risked. We have LOIs, strategic investors, and a clear path to revenue.
The work is consequential. You're not optimizing someone's ad click-through rate. You're building the silicon infrastructure that powers AI.

This is the bet. Join us and build something that matters.

Or stay comfortable. No judgment.

But if you're the kind of person who wants to take the shot, we'd love to talk.
