  • Provide technical leadership in full-chip floor planning and place-and-route activities. Optimize chip area, performance, and power metrics, while mentoring junior engineers in advanced methodologies.
  • Architect Power Distribution Networks :
  • Design and validate robust power networks to meet demanding performance criteria. Conduct power integrity analysis to address IR drop, noise, and power grid optimization, ensuring alignment with low-power objectives.
  • Drive Timing Closure and Integrity Signoff :
  • Lead timing closure efforts across cross-functional teams. Address complex timing violations, optimize critical paths, and ensure successful power and signal integrity signoff for final design verification.
  • Champion Physical Verification Processes :
  • Oversee DRC and LVS verification, resolving escalated issues and ensuring designs comply with layout and manufacturing rules. Guide the team through pre-tape-out readiness.
  • Act as a key liaison among RTL, analog, and verification teams. Drive alignment between physical design and overall architecture while addressing challenges and providing technical guidance to stakeholders.
  • Champion the adoption of emerging tools, techniques, and methodologies. Drive workflow innovations to enhance efficiency, scalability, and quality of low-power physical design.

Requirements :

  • Educational Background :
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electronics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. Master’s or Ph.D. preferred.
  • Experience :
  • 10+ years in physical design with expertise in high-performance, low-power semiconductor technologies (12nm and below). Proven tape-out success and leadership experience are essential.
  • Advanced Technical Expertise :
  • Deep expertise in full-chip floor planning, place-and-route, and physical verification (DRC and LVS). Advanced knowledge of power network architecture, IR drop, and noise analysis. Strong proficiency with timing closure processes and STA tools like PrimeTime.
  • Software and Tools Proficiency :
  • Extensive experience with industry-standard tools such as Synopsys IC Compiler, Cadence Innovus, and scripting languages like Perl, TCL, and Python.
  • Expert-level experience in advanced place-and-route strategies for performance and power optimization.
  • Leadership and Mentorship :
  • Proven ability to lead teams, mentor junior engineers, and manage cross-disciplinary collaboration in a fast-paced environment.
  • Preferred Expertise :
  • Experience in deep sub-micron technologies (7nm, 5nm, etc.), multi-voltage designs, advanced low-power techniques, and design-for-manufacturing (DFM). Familiarity with emerging semiconductor trends is a strong advantage.
