Senior Physical Design Engineer

As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for leading the Netlist-to-GDSII implementation process on advanced submicron technology nodes. Your expertise in utilizing industry-standard EDA tools and your understanding of timing closure and physical verification will be crucial for this role. Your key responsibilities will include driving the entire Netlist-to-GDSII flow, which involves tasks such as floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, and sign-off. You will also be required to conduct Static Timing Analysis (STA) to ensure timing closure across all design corners, as well as execute power integrity and physical verification checks (LVS, DRC). Collaboration with cross-functional teams including RTL, STA, packaging, and DFT will be essential to successfully handle complex designs on 28nm and below technology nodes. To excel in this role, you must possess strong hands-on experience with tools such as Synopsys/Cadence Innovus, ICC2, Primetime, PT-PX, and Calibre, along with a solid understanding of Physical Design Methodologies including Floorplanning, Placement, CTS, Routing, and STA. Proficiency in timing constraints and closure, Tcl/Tk/Perl scripting, and working with submicron nodes (28nm and below) are also essential skills required for this position. While not mandatory, familiarity with Fusion Compiler, a broader understanding of signal and power integrity, as well as experience in workflow automation and tool scripting would be considered advantageous for this role.
