Work hard. Have fun. Make history.As a Physical Design Engineer, you will:
- Work with RTL/logic designers to drive architectural feasibility studies, explore power-performance-area tradeoffs for physical design closure at the block and Sub System level.
- Drive block physical implementation through synthesis, formal verification, floor planning, bus / pin planning, place and route, power/clock distribution, congestion analysis, timing closure, IR drop analysis, physical verification, ECO and sign-off.
- Work closely with third party design and fabrication services to deliver quality first pass silicon that meets all performance, power and area goals.
- Drive and Develop Physical Design Tool features, Flow automations and Methodology enhancements in order to achieve PPA goals, low power requirements.

- BS in EE/CS
- 5+ years of experience in ASIC Physical Design from RTL-to-GDSII in FINFET technologies such as 5nm/7nm, 14/16nm
- Expertise using CAD tools (examples: Cadence, Mentor Graphics, Synopsys, or Others) to block design for synthesis, formal verification, floor planning, bus / pin planning, place and route, power/clock distribution, congestion analysis, timing closure, IR drop analysis, physical verification, and ECO
- Scripting experience with Tcl, Perl or Python and ability to drive physical design flow automation.

- MS or PhD degree in Computer Engineering/Electrical Engineering or related field
- Excellent communication and analytical skills
- Expertise using CAD tools (examples: Cadence, Mentor Graphics, Synopsys, or Others) develop flows for synthesis, formal verification, floor planning, bus / pin planning, place and route, power/clock distribution, congestion analysis, timing closure, IR drop analysis, physical verification, and ECO
- 7+ years of experience in integrating IP and ability to specify and drive IP requirements in the physical domain
