Mercor connects elite creative and technical talent with leading AI research labs. Headquartered in San Francisco, our investors include Benchmark , General Catalyst , Peter Thiel , Adam D'Angelo , Larry Summers , and Jack Dorsey .
Position: Electrical Engineering Expert (Semiconductor / ASIC / RFIC)
Type: Contract
Compensation: $100/hour
Location: Remote
Commitment: 15–20 hours/week
Role Responsibilities
- Contribute expertise across Analog, Mixed-Signal, RFIC, ASIC, or Physical Design workflows.
- Review semiconductor architectures, implementation methodologies, and silicon design tradeoffs.
- Support tasks related to tapeout flows, verification, timing closure, and silicon validation.
- Assist in evaluating and improving AI systems trained on hardware engineering workflows.
- Provide technical insight based on real-world production silicon experience.
Qualifications
Must-Have
- Hands-on ownership of chip blocks/systems through tapeout.
- Experience with advanced semiconductor PDKs such as TSMC, GlobalFoundries, Samsung, or Intel.
- Familiarity with pre- and post-silicon development flows.
- Strong understanding of schematic design, simulation, verification, DRC/LVS, parasitic extraction, and silicon bring-up.
- Prior experience in at least one of the following:
- Analog/Mixed-Signal Design (ADCs, PLLs, LDOs, SerDes, PMICs, sensor interfaces)
- RFIC Design (LNAs, mixers, transceivers, PLLs, PAs, mmWave systems)
- ASIC/Physical Design (RTL, synthesis, STA, floorplanning, CTS, PnR, ECO flows)
Preferred
- Production silicon experience preferred over purely academic or simulation-based work.
- Experience taping out RF designs at GHz/mmWave frequencies.
- Strong ability to explain architectural, power, performance, and timing tradeoffs made during implementation.
- Experience working on advanced-node semiconductor designs.
- Prior exposure to AI hardware, accelerators, or high-performance compute systems.
