Physical Design Engineer
As a Physical Design Engineer at Nsemi, you’ll play a crucial role in transforming RTL designs into efficient, high-performance physical layouts. You’ll work on floorplanning, placement, routing, and timing closure, using industry-leading EDA tools. Your expertise will ensure that our designs meet stringent performance, power, and area goals, contributing to the successful tape-out of complex semiconductor chips. This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology in a collaborative and innovative environment.
Qualification Required:
- Typically requires minimum of 3+ years of experience in Physical Design with mainstream P&R tools
- Bachelors OR Master’s Degree Engineering in Electronics or Electrical or Telecom or VLSI Engineering.
Roles And Responsibilities:
- Working on 10nm/7nm/5nm or lower nodes designs with various customers for deployment.
- Expertise in solving customer’s problems for critical designs to achieve desired performance, area, and power targets.
- Responsible to develop flow and methodology for doing placement, CTS, and routing.
- Provide training and technical support to customers
Required Technical And Professional Expertise:
- Solid experience in place & route flow (placement guidelines, clock-tree synthesis, routing, timing optimizations). Experience on hierarchical designs and/or Low Power implementation is an advantage.
- Experience on Synthesis, interfacing with RTL and implementation designers to achieve better quality of results.
- Experience on Floorplan design, including placement of hard macros, padring, power grid and custom analog routes.
- Experience on Static Timing Analysis related activities (constraints development, parasitic extractions, sign-off requirements).
- Knowledge of Physical Verification (DRC/LVS/DFM, chip finishing).
- Hands-on experience with FinFET technologies is an advantage
