Responsibilities

You will work with a global team on both the physical design of complex chips as well as the methodology to enable an efficient and robust design process

Every day, you’ll be working hands-on to triage workflows, whether you’re running RTL code through synthesis and place and route (PnR) tools to create the physical view of the chip, analyzing performance by running timing analysis, verifying a robust power grid by performing EMIR analysis, etc

There are many sign-off checks that need to happen to verify that the database is ready to move on to the next level, and it’s your responsibility to review completed runs for errors or create optimizations from successful runs

Required

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related fields, or the equivalent work experience that provides knowledge and exposure to theories, principles and concepts

Experience in physical design with a focus on block-level PNR for advanced CMOS process nodes (e.g., 7nm, 5nm, or below)

Working experience with industry-standard EDA tools for physical design, including Cadence Genus and Innovus, and Synopsys Design Compiler, IC Compiler and Fusion Compiler

Enjoy learning by doing the work and having access to guides and a mentor

Be willing to raise your hand and volunteer for learning opportunities you may not have experienced before

Preferred

Working knowledge of static timing analysis tools such as Tempus or PrimeTime and EM/IR-Drop/Crosstalk analysis tools like Voltus or PrimeRail is advantageous
