Technical Architect

About the role

A GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) Circuit Design Engineer is responsible for designing, optimizing, and verifying the custom mixed-signal and digital I/O structures that bridge an integrated circuit (IC) or System-on-Chip (SoC) core logic with the outside world. This role involves transistor-level design, electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection integration, and power-performance-area (PPA) optimization on advanced process nodes.

What you'll do

• Circuit Design & Optimization
• Design and optimize standard and specialized GPIO circuits (including push-pull/open-drain output buffers, Schmitt triggers, level shifters
• Ensure proper voltage domain transitions using level-up and level-down shifters between low-voltage core logic (e.g., 0.8V) and higher-voltage I/O rings (e.g.
• Manage multi-voltage signaling architectures and high-impedance (Hi-Z) tri-state buffer controls
• Perform transistor-level circuit simulations (HSPICE/Spectre) to analyze performance, leakage, and robustness across process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) corners

What you need

• 7–13 years in software engineering
• Python
• Circuit design
• Verilog
• Physics
• Perl
• B.Tech or B.E.
