About the Company
As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the end-to-end implementation of complex SoCs at advanced process nodes (e.g., 7nm, 5nm, and below). You will work closely with the synthesis, STA, and DFT teams to deliver high-quality GDSII, ensuring all PPA (Power, Performance, Area) targets are met.


Responsibilitie
sNetlist-to-GDSII Flow: Execute the complete physical design flow, including Floorplanning, Placement, Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS), and Routing
.Timing Closure: Perform Static Timing Analysis (STA) and timing closure across all corners and modes (setup, hold, recovery, removal)
.Physical Verification: Own and resolve DRC, LVS, ERC, and Antenna violations using industry-standard tools
.Power Analysis: Conduct IR drop analysis (Static and Dynamic) and EM (Electromigration) analysis to ensure robust power delivery
.Optimization: Implement area reduction techniques and low-power design methodologies (UPF/CPF)
.Collaboration: Interface with the RTL and DFT teams to resolve design hurdles and provide feedback on physical constraints
