About the Job

Requirements

  • Must have either a Bachelor of Science or Master of Science in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience in CPU physical design and timing verification.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience with synthesis and automated place-and-route flows on multi-voltage, high-frequency designs, including custom polygon editing.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience with Tcl scripting.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience with noise, crosstalk, and on-chip variation analysis.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience with floorplanning, physical design, and timing closure.
  • Must have a minimum of 7 years of experience with formal equivalence, design rule checking/layout versus schematic, IR drop, and electromigration checks.
  • Ability to work effectively with a team and productively under aggressive schedules.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Perform floorplanning, pin and feedthrough planning, repeater insertion, power grid generation, and partition assembly for a full-chip assembly.
  • Drive efficiency and quality improvements to the full-chip methodology, including floorplan optimization for utilization, quality of results, runtime, and timing, as well as timing- and physical-aware feedthrough and pin placement.
  • Coordinate collateral handoffs between the full-chip design team and back-end design functions, including clocking, power delivery, and partition synthesis and automated place-and-route.
  • Drive physical design and timing closure, including formal equivalence verification, layout versus schematic, design rule checking, and reliability verification such as IR drop and electromigration analysis.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with Fusion Compiler, RedHawk, ICV, Conformal, Calibre, PrimeTime, and StarRCXT.

About the Company

Intel

Pioneers microprocessors, CPUs for PCs

Intel designs and manufactures semiconductor chips, with a focus on microprocessors for personal computers, servers, and other devices. Its core product is the CPU on a single silicon chip, which executes instructions, handles arithmetic and logic operations, and coordinates the work of other computer components. Intel originated in memory chips but shifted decisively to microprocessors in the 1980s, becoming a central supplier for the PC era after the IBM partnership and its famous x86 processor line. This shift, large-scale manufacturing, and close ties with computer makers set Intel apart from competitors who remained focused on memory or other components. The company aims to power computing by delivering high-performance, energy-efficient silicon solutions that drive a wide range of computing devices and applications.
