What you'll be doing:

  • Develop and validate flows for PT-STA regression, analysis, QOR metrics for high-speed designs. The focus is on CAD flow development and analysis which is the primary task.

  • Developflows/recommendations

  • Collaborate with technology leads, VLSI physical design, and timing engineers to define and deploy the most sophisticated strategies of signing off timing in design for world-class silicon performance.

  • Develop tools, and methodologies to improve design performance, predictability, and silicon reliability beyond what industry standard tools can offer.

  • Work on various aspects of STA, constraints, timing and power optimization.

What we need to see:

  • Pursuing or recent completion of a PhD degree inPhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience)

  • Good knowledge of extraction, device physics, STA methodology and EDA tools limitations. Good understanding of mathematics/physics fundamentals of electrical design.

  • Clear understanding of low power design techniques such as multi VT, Clock gating, Power gating, Block Activity Power, and Dynamic Voltage-Frequency Scaling (DVFS), CDC, signal/power integrity, etc.

  • Understanding of 3DIC, stacking, packing, self-heating and its impact on timing/STA closure.

  • Understanding crosstalk, electro-migration, noise, OCV, timing margins. Familiarity with Clocking specs: jitter, IR drop, crosstalk, spice analysis.

  • Background of standard cells/memory/IO IP modeling and its usage in the ASIC flow. Hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies, design with FinFET technology 5nm/3nm/2nm and beyond.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Expertise in coding- TCL, Python. C++ is a plus. Familiarity with industry standard ASIC tools: PT, ICC, Redhawk, Tempus etc.

  • Prior internships or experience inexperience in ASIC Design and Timing.
