Software Engineer II, ML

The Cadence Digital and Signoff Group Machine learning team is a high energy team which explores and implements Deep Machine Learning techniques and Agentic frameworks to Electronic Design Automation [EDA] tools.

We are looking for exceptional individuals skilled in Agentic frameworks, ML and Deep-Learning algorithms and application development. In addition, we desire a team player with excellent communication skills who is as comfortable discussing Deep Learning research as with developing APIs to innovative new software.

Primary responsibilities include designing Agentic workflows, gradient based and gradient free optimization algorithms, researching and developing Machine Learning approaches to problems in the EDA and system design, as well as designing, implementing, verifying, and maintaining software to address those markets. The ability to interact with a worldwide cross-functional team and collaborate productively is a necessity. A strong software engineering background is mandatory with emphasis on C/C++, Python, Linux-based development, and ML/DL frameworks like PyTorch + LLM/Agentic AI understanding.
