Phinity is an AI research lab focused on solving chip design. The bottleneck to AGI is compute, and we enable AI agents to tape-out chips autonomously, from architecture to post-silicon. We are building RL environments, agent infrastructure, and evaluation systems to accomplish this. Our team brings together deep AI and silicon expertise, including leaders and executives from top chip companies, post-training chip-design models at NVIDIA, AI for formal verification research, previous exits, and over 10 years of experience building chips at NVIDIA, Intel, Mediatek, and others.
We are hiring a Physical Design Lead.
Leading PD flows and optimization of block-level to full-chip level optimizations
Define Synthesis to layout flows, including PDN, clock-trees, PVT corners and custom cell definitions. Responsible for implementing characterization flows for custom cells and memory blocks.
Responsible for executing IP and Fullchip design optimizations working with PD engineers. Identify areas of optimization in design utilization, power grid and clock network within the design.
Responsible for delivering tapeout ready design optimized for the target PPA, and utilizing the in-house capability on prompt-to-GDS.
