Systems Engineer, Electronics Engineer, Electrical Engineering
Lead the micro-architecture and RTL design for Mixed-Signal chiplet focused on intelligent power optimization solutions for AI and high-performance computing.
What you ll do
- Architect, model, and implement digital PID / cascade control loops (voltage-mode, current-mode, or hybrid) for high-frequency multi-phase IVRs.
- Develop micro-architecture and implement RTL for control of mixed-signal circuits
- Translate validated MATLAB/Simulink controller models into production-quality RTL (Verilog / System Verilog) using HDL Coder or manual high-quality coding.
- Design and implement supporting digital blocks: ADC interface, DPWM (digital PWM).
- Perform closed-loop stability analysis on switched power stages.
- Collaborate closely with analog designers on loop compensation, sensor design, quantization effects, and delay budgeting.
- Analyze and optimize for area, power, timing, and metastability in the digital controller across PVT corners.
- Support silicon bring-up, debug, and controller tuning on lab hardware.
What
We’re
Looking For
- Strong mixed-signal background
:
Solid understanding of both analog power circuits (buck converters, 3-level buck, hybrid SC-inductor topologies) and digital control systems, digital filters etc
. - Expert-level MATLAB / Simulink experience
- Proven experience converting MATLAB/Simulink control algorithms into clean, synthesizable RTL (HDL Coder or hand-coded Verilog/System Verilog).
- Deep knowledge of digital PID implementation challenges: quantization, sampling effects, computational delay, fixed-point arithmetic, and limit cycling.
- Familiarity with high-frequency power converter control and digital PWM modulators (DPWM).
- Experience with mixed-signal verification flows (analog-digital co-simulation).
- Good understanding of analog effects impacting digital control: loop delay, sensor non-idealities, inductor non-linearities, PDN resonances.
- BSEE / MSEE or PhD with 8+ years of relevant experience in power management ICs or high-performance mixed-signal design.
Nice to Have
- Prior experience designing digital controllers for integrated voltage regulators (IVRs), point-of-load (PoL) converters, or high-current AI/HPC power delivery.
- Knowledge of advanced topologies: 3-level buck, multi-level converters, hybrid switched-capacitor + inductive converters.
- Experience with package-integrated magnetics, high-permeability materials, and PDN modeling (Ansys Q3D / SIwave).
- Experience with formal verification or assertion-based mixed-signal verification.
About Tyl Semi, Inc.
The OpportunityThe AI infrastructure market is exploding. Every hyperscaler, every cloud provider, every AI company is building custom silicon. But they all face the same problem:
how do you connect hundreds of chips, deliver clean power at scale, and move terabits of data without melting the package?
That s what we solve. Tyl Semi builds the chiplet infrastructure IP — the IO, power delivery, and interconnect building blocks — that makes AI/HPC systems actually work at scale.
This isn t a nice-to-have. It s the critical path.
Why Now The Market WindowThe semiconductor industry is going through its biggest architectural shift in 40 years:
Moore s Law is dead. 2nm and beyond delivers marginal performance gains. The future is chiplets, not monolithic dies.
Custom silicon is now mainstream. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, OpenAI — they re all designing their own ASICs. The $50B custom silicon market is growing 30% annually.
IO and power are the bottleneck. Solve hard problems and provide something which is a category in itself.
Translation: We re entering the market at exactly the moment when every major AI/HPC player needs what we re building, and their alternatives are disappearing.
