VLSI Internship

This is a guided learning internship, run remotely, for people who want to move into semiconductor and electronics work. The point is to build exposure to how the industry works, with mentors involved along the way.

• Pick up the fundamentals of VLSI and digital hardware design, then put them to use.
• Help with assigned learning projects covering RTL, logic design, simulation and verification.
• Keep clear written notes on what you observe, how projects are moving, what you find technically, and the assignments you finish.
• Join reviews, discussions and activities led by mentors, and take part rather than just attend.
• Hand in deliverables by the agreed dates, and show you are keen to learn how semiconductor design gets done.

The post wants people curious about VLSI, semiconductors, digital electronics or hardware design. You do not need a job history, and motivated learners are explicitly welcome.

• Knowing digital logic and electronic circuits at a basic level helps, but it is a plus rather than a hard condition.
• You should be good at solving problems, careful with details, and reliable about finishing what you are given.
• You need to be able to work on your own and explain yourself well while remote.

The skills linked to this posting are Digital Electronics, SystemVerilog, Verilog, FPGA Design and Electronics Fundamentals.

• Brush up your digital logic and circuit basics before applying, since the post treats them as useful groundwork.
• If you have written any Verilog or SystemVerilog, even a small simulated module, be ready to explain what it does and how you tested it.
• Keep a short written record of something you built or studied. This role involves writing up findings, so clear notes count.
• Have an example ready of finishing something alone against a deadline. Remote, self-directed work is central here.
• Send your application early, because competition is very high.
