Job Description
We are seeking a strong Digital Physical Design Engineer to drive block-level physical implementation of complex SoCs/ASICs across advanced nodes.
The role involves hands-on execution and ownership of key blocks from synthesis to tape-out, ensuring closure across timing, power, area, and signoff quality, while collaborating with cross-functional teams and contributing to flow improvements.
Responsibilities
Execute physical design activities including floor planning, power planning, placement, CTS, routing, and STA for assigned blocks
Drive timing closure across multi-mode, multi-corner scenarios
Perform physical verification (DRC, LVS, Antenna) and resolve violations to achieve clean signoff
Conduct power integrity analysis (IR drop, EM) and support PDN optimization
Support DFT implementation and ensure proper test structure integration
Analyze and debug timing, congestion, power, and signal integrity issues
Execute ECOs and support tape-out readiness under tight schedules
Develop and use automation scripts to improve flow efficiency
Contribute to methodology improvements and standardization efforts
Collaborate with team members on implementation strategies, constraints, and floorplans
Qualification
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics / Electrical Engineering or related field
2–6 years of hands-on experience in digital physical design of SoCs or ASICs
Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (Fusion Compiler / Innovus / ICC2, Tempus / PrimeTime, Voltus / RedHawk, Calibre)
Solid understanding of:
○ Floorplanning and power planning basics
○ Placement and routing optimization
○ Clock tree synthesis (CTS)
○ Static Timing Analysis (STA) and timing closure techniques
○ Physical verification and reliability checks
Exposure to advanced nodes (16nm / 7nm / 5nm preferred)
Strong scripting skills (Tcl required; Python/Perl preferred)
Soft Skills
Ability to independently drive and close assigned blocks
Structured debugging approach for timing, IR/EM, and tool-related issues
Clear communication of risks and closure status
Strong ownership mindset and execution discipline
