Job Description: We are seeking a highly motivated Electrical Design Automation – AI & EDA Automation Intern to help develop next-generation AI-assisted design automation workflows for Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) engineering. This internship will focus on applying Large Language Models (LLMs) and Python software development to automate industry-leading Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools, including Ansys HFSS and Keysight ADS. The goal is to create intelligent workflows that transform engineering design specifications and requirements into structured, reusable Python libraries that can automatically generate simulation setups, execute analyses, and produce engineering results. This project sits at the intersection of electrical engineering, artificial intelligence, software development, and design automation and offers an opportunity to influence the future of engineering productivity and simulation workflows. Key Responsibilities: Develop Python frameworks for automating SI/PI simulation workflows. Create structured data models that capture electrical design requirements, constraints, and specifications. Investigate and implement LLM-based approaches for translating natural language engineering requirements into machine-readable design objects. Interface Python automation with industry-standard EDA tools including: Ansys HFSS Keysight ADS Data analysis and post-processing tools Build reusable libraries to support: Simulation setup generation Parameterized model creation Design rule validation Results extraction and reporting Develop proof-of-concept workflows demonstrating end-to-end automation from specification through simulation execution. Collaborate with Signal Integrity and Power Integrity engineers to understand engineering workflows and identify automation opportunities. Document software architecture, APIs, and engineering use cases. Desired Project Outcomes By the end of the internship, the student will deliver: A prototype framework that converts engineering specifications into structured Python objects. Demonstration of LLM-assisted specification parsing. Automated generation of HFSS and/or ADS simulation projects. Workflow examples for SI and PI analysis. Documentation and recommendations for future AI-enabled engineering workflows.
