Responsibilities

Take RTL from internal design teams and push it through the full frontend implementation flow (synthesis → DFT → STA → LEC → signoff)
Implement and iterate SDC timing constraints to achieve timing closure for assigned partitions
Run synthesis, generate timing reports, perform quality checks, and prepare implementation data for backend teams
Partner with external PNR (Place & Route) vendors to resolve timing issues, DFT logic placement impacts, and integration concerns
Execute multiple rounds of design and timing improvements across all assigned partitions
Track and meet internal quality metrics for each iteration, ensuring final partitions meet foundry‑level signoff requirements ahead of December 2026 tapeout
Use Synopsys and Siemens tools to execute flow steps and validate results at each stage

Proficiency in STA, LEC, and digital signoff methodologies
Experience supporting backend PNR teams (timing, constraints, debug)
Background working with advanced FinFET process nodes (e.g., TSMC12 or below)
Ability to drive multiple 2–3M instance digital partitions through repeated implementation iterations
Experience writing and refining SDC timing constraints

Preferred

10+ years of implementation experience (not required; <10 years considered to manage cost)
