Meta is hiring ASIC Front-End Implementation Engineers within our Infrastructure organization. We are looking for individuals with experience in front-end implementation from RTL to netlist, including RTL Lint, CDC analysis, timing constraints, synthesis to build efficient System on Chip (SoC) and IP for data center applications.
ASIC Engineer, Front-End Implementation Responsibilities
  • Run Logic/Physical Synthesis using advanced optimization techniques and generate optimized Gate Level Netlist for Timing, Area, Power.
  • Debug the timing/area/congestion issues and work with RTL & Physical designers to resolve them.
  • Perform Power Estimation at RTL and Gate Level and identify power reduction opportunities.
  • Run Formal Verification checks between RTL and Gate level netlist and debug the aborts, inconclusive and Logic Equivalency failures.
  • Perform RTL Lint and work with the Designers to create waivers.
  • Perform RTL DFT Analysis and improve the DFT coverage for Stuck-at faults.
  • Develop Timing Constraints for RTL-Synthesis and PrimeTime-STA for the blocks and the top-level including SOC. Analyze the inter-block timing and come up with IO budgets for the various partition blocks.
  • Developing Automation scripts and Methodology for all FE-tools including (Lint, CDC, RDC, Synthesis, STA, Power).
  • Work closely with the Design Engineers, DV Engineers, Emulation Engineers in supporting them with the handoff tasks. Interact with Physical Design Engineers and provide them with timing/congestion feedback.
Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Experience as a Front End Synthesis & Integration Engineer
  • Experience with RTL Synthesis and design optimization for Power, Performance, Area.
  • Knowledge of front-end and back-end ASIC tools.
  • Experience with RTL design using SystemVerilog or other HDL.
  • Experience managing multiple design releases and working with cross functional teams to support and debug timing, area, power issues.
  • Experience with communicating across functional internal teams and vendors.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in SOC Design Integration and Front-End Implementation.
  • Knowledge of Physical Design flow such as Floorplanning, CTS, Routing
  • Knowledge of Timing/physical libraries, SRAM Memories.
  • Knowledge of STA signoff and understanding of AOCV, POCV
  • Experience with EDA tools and scripting languages (Python, TCL) used to build tools and flows
  • Experience with Design Compiler, Spyglass, PrimeTime, Formality or equivalent tools.
