About DeepPCB:

DeepPCB is InstaDeep’s AI-powered Place & Route PCB (Printed Circuit Board) design tool. We use a combination of deep reinforcement learning and high-performance computing to automate and scale PCB place-and-route workflows, accelerating hardware innovation globally.

We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to join the DeepPCB team and help push the boundaries of AI for electronic design automation (EDA). You will develop, optimize, and deploy cutting-edge machine learning and reinforcement learning models focused on automating complex PCB design problems, working closely with researchers and engineers to bring ideas to life.

Responsibilities:

• Develop scalable and efficient machine learning algorithms to tackle PCB place-and-route challenges.
• Adapt and optimize ML models for large-scale distributed computing environments (e.g., GPUs, multi-node clusters).
• Build, test, and deploy robust production-level ML systems integrated into the DeepPCB platform.
• Collaborate with research scientists, software engineers, product managers, and business development teams.
• Clearly document and present your work internally and externally, adjusting technical depth based on the audience.
• Participate in technical discussions, design reviews, and customer-facing activities when required.

Requirements:

• B.Sc ., M.Sc ., or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 2–5 years of professional experience in applied machine learning or engineering roles.
• Strong expertise in Machine Learning and Deep Learning, with exposure to Reinforcement Learning as a plus.
• Proficiency in Python and modern ML libraries (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, JAX, or Keras).
• Experience with version control systems (GitHub, GitLab) and knowledge of clean, maintainable coding practices.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for automating ML workflows.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, and dynamic environment.

Nice to haves:

• Prior experience with PCB design, EDA tools, or related optimization problems.
• Hands-on experience in high-performance computing environments (e.g., Kubernetes, Ray, Dask).
• Contributions to open-source projects, publications, or top placements in ML competitions (e.g., Kaggle).
• Expertise in related fields such as Computer Vision, Representation Learning, or Simulation Environments.
