We are seeking a skilled and enthusiastic Digital Physical Design Engineer (G2) to contribute to the physical implementation of complex digital integrated circuits. This role involves working on various stages of the physical design flow, from synthesis to tape-out, ensuring performance, power, and area targets are met.
Job Responsibilities
- Execute physical design activities including floorplanning, power planning, place and route, clock tree synthesis, and static timing analysis (STA).
- Perform physical verification (DRC, LVS, Antenna) and resolve related issues.
- Conduct power integrity analysis (IR drop, EM) and optimize designs for power efficiency.
- Participate in design-for-test (DFT) implementation and verify test structures.
- Collaborate with design, verification, and DFT teams to ensure seamless integration and achieve project milestones.
- Analyze and resolve design issues related to timing, area, and power.
- Develop and maintain scripts for automation and efficiency improvements in the physical design flow.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of physical design methodologies and flows.
- Generate comprehensive reports and documentation of design implementation.
