Description

You will own the end-to-end physical implementation process from netlist to GDSII for complex, high-frequency designs.

Responsibilities

  • Execute chip-level floorplanning, partitioning, power planning, and top-level PnR.
  • Drive timing closure (STA) for high-frequency blocks and manage CTS and block integration.
  • Handle low-power implementation including power gating, multiple voltage rails, and UPF.
  • Manage signoff closure for timing (SI and OCV), power, IR, and physical verification at block and chip levels.
  • Perform layout edits and generate ECOs to meet tape-out schedules.

Required Skills

  • 10+ years of hands-on experience in block and chip-level implementation.
  • Proven tape-out experience in advanced technology nodes (3nm, 5nm, 7nm, 10nm, or 16nm).
  • Experience handling large-scale designs with 1M+ instances and clock frequencies above 1GHz.
  • Proficiency with Synopsys Fusion Compiler, ICC/ICC2, Cadence Innovus, or PTP.
  • Deep understanding of SI prevention, fixing methodologies, and constraint management.
  • Expertise in timing closure, physical verification, and low-power signoff.
  • Strong scripting capabilities in TCL/Tk, Perl, or Python.
  • Proficiency in UNIX systems.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with Synthesis and Formal verification.
