Circuits Physical Design Engineer - Library/Process Monitor
Imagine yourself at the center of our SOC design effort, collaborating with all fields, playing a strategic role of getting functional products to millions of customers quickly. You will have the opportunity to integrate and come-up with new insights, as well as work with a team of hardworking engineers. As a Physical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for fully comprehensive library EDA view validation, by taking a P&R block through RTL to GDS steps. This will include physical synthesis, placement, CTS, routing, timing optimization, leakage recovery and closure & signoff. You will also be responsible for PT/spice correlation, signal and power EM analysis, IR analysis and PDV. You will also architect and compose blocks consisting of library cells for complete Silicon Validation.
Minimum Qualifications
BS and a minimum of 2 years of relevant industry experience.
Preferred Qualifications
We are looking for applicants with 2+ years of proven experience and strong understanding of the RTL2GDSII flow and concepts related to synthesis, place & route, CTS, timing convergence, layout closure.
Familiar with development of block/partitions for silicon validation of foundation Ips.
Familiar with ASIC integration flows, including power distribution, global signal planning, I/O planning and hard IP integration is a strong plus.
Familiar with tapeout of partitions and Verification Flows like LEQ, IR/EM, Timing and DFM closure is a strong plus.
Hands-on experience with ECO implementation, both functional and timing closure is a strong plus.
Familiar with DFT insertion, and multi-mode timing constraints is a strong plus.
Strong scripting skills using Perl/Tcl.
Strong written/verbal communication skills.
