Static Timing Analysis (STA) Engineer

Job Summary The Static Timing Analysis (STA) Engineer will own the timing sign-off and closure for complex integrated circuits (ICs) and / or System-on-Chips (SoCs). This role involves defining and validating timing constraints, performing multi-mode multi-corner (MMMC) timing analysis, and collaborating with design and physical design teams to achieve the target operating frequency and performance metrics.

Key Responsibilities

  • Timing Sign-off and Analysis
  • Timing Closure Ownership : Drive all aspects of timing closure from pre-layout to post-layout for blocks, sub-systems, and / or the full chip.
  • Constraint Management : Develop, validate, and maintain Synopsys Design Constraints (SDC) and timing constraints for all functional and test modes (e.g., Scan, MBIST).
  • MMMC Analysis : Perform comprehensive timing analysis across multiple operating corners (Process, Voltage, Temperature - PVT) and various modes (Multi-Mode Multi-Corner).
  • Critical Path Identification : Analyze timing reports to identify and debug critical paths and resolve all Setup and Hold violations.
  • Signal Integrity (SI) & Noise : Incorporate advanced timing effects such as on-chip variation (OCV), signal integrity (crosstalk), and voltage drop (IR-drop aware STA) into the sign-off process.

Methodology and Flow

  • Develop, maintain, and enhance STA flows and methodologies to improve efficiency, robustness, and reduce analysis runtime.
  • Automate repetitive tasks and report generation using scripting languages.
  • Generate final timing reports and sign-off collateral for tape-out.

    • Education

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electronics Engineering, VLSI, or a related field.

    • Technical Skills & Experience

  • Experience : 3+ years of experience in STA.
  • EDA Tools : Expert proficiency with industry-standard Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools from vendors like Synopsys (e.g., Fusion Compiler, ICC2, Primetime), Cadence (e.g., Innovus), or Mentor Graphics.

    • Soft Skills

  • Excellent analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team environment and collaborate across different engineering disciplines.

    • Experience Level : - 3yrs to 15yrs

    Notice Period : - Immediate to 60 Days

    Work Location : - Bangalore

    Mode of Work : - WFO

    Employment Type : - Permanent
