About the Job

Requirements

A minimum of a Bachelor of Science degree and 10 or more years of relevant industry experience is required.
Experience with silicon-level power delivery, electromigration, and IR drop analysis is required.
Experience scripting SAPR or EMIR flow automation for efficient processing of large-scale design and analysis data, debugging issues, and isolating design sensitivities is required.
Experience implementing high-performance and low-power very-large-scale integration designs is preferred.
Experience with SAPR or place-and-route design-flow infrastructure is preferred.
Understanding of challenges related to the latest deep-submicron technology is preferred.
Working knowledge of industry-standard tools such as Apache RedHawk and Cadence Voltus, as well as place-and-route implementation, layout tools, verification, and static timing analysis, is preferred.
Strong communication and presentation skills are preferred for regularly summarizing design status and driving design convergence across multiple blocks and teams in a timely manner.

Responsibilities

Drive block-level and top-level electromigration and IR-drop electrical verification closure.
Work on power-grid design, construction, and implementation using existing infrastructures and, where necessary, create custom solutions in the place-and-route tool environment.
Produce impactful design fixes and automate wherever possible across multiple tool domains in physical construction and analysis.
Work with computer-aided design and electronic design automation vendors to ensure analysis-result fidelity with methodology teams covering unique use cases, implementation teams driving design and sign-off closure, and system-on-chip teams meeting intellectual-property delivery quality and schedule.
