Requirements

  • A Bachelor of Science or Master of Science in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
  • At least 7 years of ASIC implementation experience and multiple successful tapeouts.
  • Strong experience across physical implementation and signoff, including floorplanning, clock-tree synthesis, static timing analysis, timing closure, and physical verification.
  • Hands-on experience with Cadence and Siemens implementation and signoff tools.
  • Strong understanding of CMOS, RC-parasitic extraction, and key physical design formats and constraints.

  • Drive static timing analysis and timing closure for high-performance designs, developing and validating the SDC constraints needed to achieve design goals.
  • Ensure designs are ready for signoff through power integrity analysis, physical verification, logic equivalence checking, and ECOs.
  • Shape and improve implementation flows around design needs, building automation and scripts that support efficient execution.
  • Work closely with RTL design, DFT, packaging, and foundry teams, using physical implementation insights to influence and improve RTL.
  • Share expertise through design reviews and clear documentation.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with custom macro integration.
  • Knowledge of package/PCB co-design, chiplet, or 2.5D/3D integration.
  • Exposure to machine-learning-driven implementation flows.
