Join us and build your future by being part of what’s next in electronics and the world.We are seeking a Principal Engineer – Implementation Lead to own synthesis and timing closure sign-off for low-power, chiplet-based MCU designs implemented on cost-optimized mature process nodes. This role is critical for ensuring design quality and convergence while meeting power, performance, and cost targets.
- Drive RTL-to-gate synthesis for complex multi-die MCU designs using industry-standard tools
- Optimize for timing, power, and area while adhering to mature-node constraints
- Lead static timing analysis (STA) and timing closure activities across multiple corners and modes
- Ensure sign-off compliance for timing, power, and signal integrity
- Work closely with RTL, DFT, and physical design teams to resolve timing issues
- Own full chip constraints and design optimizations to achieve convergence
- Define and maintain synthesis and timing closure methodologies tailored for cost-sensitive MCU designs
- Evaluate EDA tools and flows for improved efficiency and turnaround time
Qualifications
Qualifications
- BTech/MTech in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science with 15+ years of experience in ASIC/SoC implementation
