Your profile

Skills

  • Solid knowledge in the design and simulation of digital microelectronics circuits;
  • Experience with Cadence EDA tools for physical implementation and verification;
  • Proven ability to develop synthesizable Verilog RTL code, handle physical implementation (RTL to GDS), and perform functional and physical verification of digital ASICs.
  • Familiarity with low power design techniques in modern CMOS processes (65nm and below).

Eligibility criteria:

  • You are a national of a CERN Member or Associate Member State.
  • You have a professional background in Electronics engineering (or a related field) and have either:
    • a Master's degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience;
