Desirable

• As a digital design engineer at Normal, you will work closely with the silicon and hardware R&D team to develop and implement novel thermodynamic computing architectures
• You will have significant ownership of the implementation of the digital interfaces, control logic, and error mitigation algorithms we need to implement our thermodynamic architectures
• You will play a key role in the entire development process of our silicon, from idea to architecture to implementation to tape-out
• Contribute new ideas for potential thermodynamic computing technologies and architectures
• Implement digital components on our ASICs and in our FPGA test harness, potentially including serial and parallel interface controllers, signal processing algorithms, and calibration algorithms
• Support physical implementation of digital logic on ASICs and FPGAs using Cadence and Xilinx tools, respectively
• Develop FPGA-based harnesses and systems
• Participate in the tape-out, bring-up, and testing of Normal’s silicon
