Are you in search for a new challenge? Are you equipped with forward thinking spirit and experienced in digital design flows and tools? Physical Design has a multi-lateral spectrum of increasing complexity which involves deep understanding of cutting-edge designs and technologies, methods, tools, development and implementation flows.
Take the opportunity and join us as a Senior Physical Design Engineer!

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS/SKILLS:

• 8+ years (desirable) in challenging RTL2GDSII work done on 10nm or below nodes with 500k –1million+ instances in designs;
• Power user of PnR and timing analysis CAD tools from Synopsys and/or Cadence
• Good knowledge of synthesis flow, insertDFT scan/coverage and optimization
• Excellent floorplan, power plan, CTS, place, route, and timing closure skills;
• Proficiency using Perl/TCL/Python scripting and Makefile;
• Expertise in timing STA/PTSI – signal integrity closure, ECO generation/implementation skill;
• Excellent EM/IR, DRC, LVS, ERC analysis and fixing skills;
• Experience with sign-off tape-out closure work;
• Any top level – floor planning, pin assignment – tape out activities is a plus.

• Responsible for all aspects of Physical Design in full chip or block level in extremely advanced technologies nodes (10nm and below);
• In deep Floorplanning, partitioning/budgeting, power mesh distribution, clock tree planning and analysis, Scan re-ordering, placement, CTS, place and route;
• Cover all relevant activities related to timing analysis (closure through sign-off including SI/noise) ECO tasks (both functional and timing);
• In charge with all validation/qualification tasks : Formal Verification, EM/IR, DRC, LVS, Antenna, ERC analysis and fixes;
• Be part of the overall Low Power solution development and implementation;
• Develop/enhance timing related scripts for clock skew analysis, critical path analysis, various IO interfaces, constraints partitioning/budgeting (from top-level to block level);
• Complete multiple design cycles of high complexity with little supervision
