• Work with the FE team to understand chip architecture and drive physical aspects early in the design cycle.• Work with the physical design team to drive methodologies and “best known methods” to streamline physical design work, come up with guidelines and checklists, drive execution, and track progress.• Be a focal point for place and route, drive the work among place and route engineers, set goals and milestones, plan short and long-term work, understand dependencies between different domains like top, STA, block place and route.• Resolve design and flow issues related to physical design, identify potential solutions, and drive execution.
