[Hiring] Circuit Design Expert @YO AI Labs

Role Description

We're seeking a Circuit Design Expert to support an AI training project involving electronic hardware, circuit design, simulation, verification, EDA workflows, and Python. You'll design, analyze, validate, and review real-world circuit solutions. No prior AI experience is required.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and analyze analog, digital, power, mixed-signal, or RF circuits.
• Translate requirements into schematics, netlists, HDL, models, and simulation inputs.
• Run simulation, synthesis, and verification workflows using CLI/programmatic tools.
• Use Python to automate simulations, parameter sweeps, and result analysis.
• Evaluate voltage, current, power, gain, bandwidth, noise, timing, stability, and related outputs.
• Diagnose component, parasitic, layout, signal/power integrity, thermal, and manufacturing issues.
• Compare simulations with analytical calculations and hardware measurements.
• Review AI-generated circuit solutions and create reproducible reference solutions.

Required Skills

• Circuit Design & Analysis
• Analog/Digital/Mixed-Signal/RF Design
• Circuit Simulation & Verification

Tools

• Experience with ngspice, Xyce, Yosys, Verilator, KiCad, SPICE simulators, HDL tools, or equivalent programmatic EDA software.
• Python tools such as PySpice, NumPy, SciPy, pandas, Matplotlib, cocotb, or similar are beneficial.

Qualifications

• MS/PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field, or BS in Electrical Engineering with 1–2+ years of professional circuit-design experience.
• Proven experience designing circuits that were fabricated, integrated, shipped, or taped out.
• Strong Python and programmatic EDA/tool experience.
• Experience with hardware bring-up, laboratory validation, design verification, or post-fabrication debugging.
• Ability to explain circuit behavior, assumptions, and design trade-offs clearly.

Process

• Application
• ~30-minute AI interview
• Technical assessment (if required)
• Hiring manager review.

Compensation & Start

Output-based compensation is paid per approved task. Selected experts are expected to start their first task within 24–48 hours of onboarding.
