The opportunity
Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services.
What you'll do
Own multilayer PCB layout from initial component placement through fabrication and assembly release.
Translate schematics, mechanical constraints, and electrical requirements: into constraint-driven board designs using industry-standard PCB layout tools.
Define and implement board stackups, controlled-impedance structures, routing: rules, reference planes, return paths, and length- and phase-matching constraints.
Place and route high-speed digital, high-current power, and sensitive analog: circuits, including dense BGA fanout and differential interfaces.
Apply signal-integrity and power-integrity best practices to minimize: crosstalk, discontinuities, noise, voltage drop, and electromagnetic interference.
Collaborate with electrical, SI/PI, mechanical, thermal, compliance,: manufacturing, and test engineers to establish constraints and resolve layout issues.
What they're looking for
- Work with fabrication and assembly partners to select materials, validate: stackups and via structures, and improve yield, cost, and schedule.
- Perform design reviews and DFM, DFA, and DFT checks; generate and verify: fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, drill data, Gerbers, ODB++, IPC-2581, and related release packages.
- Maintain component footprints, padstacks, design libraries, layout standards, and release documentation.
- Support prototype builds, board bring-up, failure analysis, and layout revisions through production.
