What You'll Do

You'll be joining a team of world-class circuit designers and will work on communication circuits using state-of-the art CMOS FinFet technologies with feature sizes of 3nm and below.

You will be responsible for supporting design flows with leading industry design tools as well as finding, analyzing and implementing innovative circuit designs for high-speed wireline SerDes IP blocks. You will develop, optimize and verify these circuits in both schematic and layout, as well as characterize the manufactured devices in measurements.

Who You'll Work With

The team you will work with has an outstanding history in delivering innovative ideas and world-leading circuit solutions in silicon, which is manifested by a long track record of publications and contributions to products in the past.

Also, you'll be part of our Group driving our game changing next generation network devices - Cisco Silicon One™. We are transforming the industry and building a new internet for the 5G era, providing a unified, programmable silicon architecture that is the foundation of all Cisco's future routing products.

Our devices are designed to be universally adaptable across AI, service providers and web-scale markets, designed for fixed and modular platforms. Our devices deliver high speed without sacrificing programmability, buffering, power efficiency, scale or feature flexibility.
