You will be responsible for macro level RTL to gds implementation and signoff.
Work with Front-End teams to understand the design architecture to ensure optimal physical implementation.
Execute physical design tasks, including gate-level netlist synthesis, floorplanning, placement, Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS), and routing.
Optimize designs to achieve industry-leading power, performance, and area (PPA) metrics while maintaining design integrity through formal verification.
Conduct Static Timing Analysis (STA), physical verification, formal verification and signoff closure to ensure high-quality results.
Analyze and resolve Electromigration (EM) and IR-drop (IR) issues, meeting stringent signoff requirements for reliability and performance.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
4+ year minimum of hands-on experience in ASIC design and verification
Proven expertise in ASIC physical design and verification.
Knowledge of block-level synthesis, place-and-route (PnR), and timing closure.
First-hand experience with industry-standard PnR and signoff tools such as Synopsys and Cadence.
Preferred Qualifications
Understanding of all aspects of physical design construction, integration, and methodologies.
Proficiency in Physical Design Verification, including techniques like LVS and DRC.
Experience with physical design EDA tools and workflows.
Expertise in Static Timing Analysis (STA), timing closure, and design constraints.
Proficiency in scripting languages like Tcl, Python, or Perl, with a focus on automation and efficiency improvements.
