Job Details
Position: LLM Trainer ASIC/VLSI Design (Chip Lead)
Location: Remote | Contract
Overview:
Looking for a senior ASIC/VLSI design expert to help train and evaluate Large Language Models for chip design workflows. You will create high-quality datasets, simulate engineering scenarios, and review AI outputs to improve accuracy in the semiconductor domain.
Key Responsibilities:
- Create datasets covering ASIC/SoC workflows (RTL, verification, physical design).
- Simulate realistic prompts/conversations involving chip design tools and issues.
- Write and review technical explanations for ARM-based SoC design, tape-out, and optimization.
- Evaluate and refine model responses for accuracy and clarity.
- Cover full lifecycle from design specs to GDSII signoff (<45nm nodes, TSMC/UMC/GlobalFoundries).
Requirements:
- 8+ years in ASIC/VLSI design; end-to-end IC design leadership with multiple successful tape-outs.
- Expertise in RTL (Verilog/VHDL/SystemVerilog), synthesis, timing closure, DFT/DFM, SoC architecture.
- Direct experience with ARM processor integration.
- Strong written English for explaining complex workflows.
- Comfortable collaborating with AI teams.
Nice-to-Have:
- AI/ML tooling exposure, EDA automation, or cloud-based design experience.
- Technical documentation/training material creation experience.
