Description
You will be responsible for constraint development, including deliveries for synthesis, PnR, and sign-off STA. You will work on partition- as well as SoC-level and verify the results post-synthesis for all STA modes.In this role, you will be the link between digital design, mixed-signal design (.lib definition), and physical design. Your responsibility is to achieve sign-off quality of timing constraints, based on stakeholder requirements.Further, you will closely collaborate with digital designers to understand the design intent and its clock structure to optimize power, performance, and area. With CAD and PD teams you will continuously improve development flows.
Minimum Qualifications
  • Hands-on experience on multiple projects with constraint development, -analysis, and -debugging.
  • Proven experience with industry-standard tools for STA, e.g. PrimeTime or Tempus.
  • Proven understanding of hierarchical design approaches, top-down design, timing budgeting as well as timing and physical convergence.
  • Proficient in day-to-day usage of scripting languages (TCL, Perl, Shell, Bash, Python), Linux, and revision control systems (e.g. PerForce)
  • Very good experience with Verilog and the ability to analyze RTL/Netlist designs
  • English language proficiency is required for this position
  • Good interpersonal and communication skills as well as the ability to find effective technical solutions between RTL-Design and Physical-Design teams
Preferred Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science/Software Engineering, or equivalent is a requirement with some years of working experience or a PhD in a relevant field with some years of proven experience.
  • Experience with SoC practices such as multiple voltage and clock domains, integration of mixed-signal IPs, and power optimizations would be a big plus
  • Experience with synthesis, logic equivalence, or ECO techniques would be a plus
