SENIOR SILICON DESIGN ENGINEER
Own and drive clocking and Physical Design (PnR) methodologies for complex SoC/ASIC designs. Responsible for developing, validating, and maintaining implementation flows, clock-tree methodologies, timing correlation, QoR convergence strategies, and automation frameworks used across multiple projects.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end clocking methodology including CTS architecture, clock latency/skew management, clock QoR reviews, and timing convergence strategies.
- Develop, certify, and maintain PnR implementation flows across technology nodes and design styles.
- Drive flow correlation between Tile PnR, Full-Chip Timing (FCT), STA, and signoff environments to ensure predictable closure.
- Define implementation recipes, optimisation strategies, and best practices for timing, congestion, power, and area closure.
- Develop automation using Tcl/Python/Shell to improve productivity, debug efficiency, and flow robustness.
- Partner with CAD, FCFP, Timing, DFT, and Design teams to resolve methodology issues and improve project execution.
- Enable new technology nodes, validate EDA tool features, and drive methodology enhancements for future projects
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering.
- Strong understanding of ASIC Physical Design flow including Floorplanning, Placement, CTS, Routing, STA, ECO, IR/EM, and Physical Verification.
- Expertise in clock-tree synthesis, clock skew/latency optimisation, and timing closure methodologies.
- Experience with industry-standard tools such as Fusion Compiler, ICC2, Innovus, PrimeTime, Calibre, and RedHawk.
- Strong scripting skills in Tcl, Python, and Shell.
- Good debugging, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Preferred Experience
- 2–6 years for an SDE-level position.
- Prior experience owning flow development, methodology certification, or automation projects.
- Experience across advanced technology nodes (5nm/3nm and below) is a plus.
- #LI-BM2
