Onsite Full Time Physics

We are looking for an experienced Physical Design Engineer / Technical Manager to drive the implementation of complex, low-power, high-performance ASIC and SoC designs at advanced technology nodes. If you're passionate about RTL-to-GDSII implementation, timing closure, and delivering world-class silicon, we'd love to connect.

In this role, you will:

  • Own the physical implementation of complex ASIC/SoC designs from logic synthesis through GDSII.
  • Perform floorplanning, place and route, clock tree synthesis, timing closure, IR drop, electromigration, and physical verification.
  • Drive physical-aware design decisions to optimize power, performance, and area (PPA).
  • Partner with RTL engineers to improve partitioning, resolve congestion and timing issues, and implement ECOs.
  • Develop automation using Tcl, Python, Perl, or Shell to improve implementation efficiency and quality.
  • Evaluate new EDA tools and collaborate with vendors to enhance physical design flows.
  • Deliver high-quality physical implementation for advanced process technologies (5nm and below).

Qualifications

  • 12+ years of ASIC/SoC physical design and timing closure experience.
  • Strong understanding of RTL-to-GDSII implementation and successful tape-outs at 5nm or below.
  • Hands-on experience with DC/Genus, Innovus/ICC2, PrimeTime, RedHawk/Voltus, and Calibre.
  • Expertise in SoC floorplanning, power distribution, CTS, routing, and timing convergence for high-frequency designs.
  • Experience with large SoCs (>100M gates) operating above 1GHz.
  • Strong scripting skills in Tcl, Python, Perl, or Shell.
  • Excellent collaboration skills across cross-functional and global engineering teams.
