Description
We're looking for a Senior ASIC Timing Engineer to join our Networking Silicon engineering team. As a Senior ASIC Timing Engineer, you will drive physical design and timing of high-frequency and low-power DPUs and SoCs at block level, chiplet level, and/or full chip level.
You will analyze and optimize design constraints and synthesis parameters to achieve performance, power, and area targets. You will help in driving frontend and backend implementation from RTL to gds2, including synthesis, equivalence checking, floor-planning, timing constraints, timing and power convergence, and ECO implementation.
To be successful in this role, you will need to have a strong background in synthesis and timing, with hands-on experience in full-chip/sub-chip Static Timing Analysis (STA), timing constraints generation and management, and timing convergence. You will also need expertise in analysis and fixing of timing paths through ECOs, including crosstalk and noise analysis.
In addition, you will need to have expertise in physical design and optimization, such as placement, routing, cell sizing, buffering, logic restructuring, etc. to improve timing and power. A background in logic synthesis and/or logical equivalence checking (LEC) is also required.
You will need to have expertise and in-depth knowledge of industry standard EDA tools (Synopsys PrimeTime or Cadence Tempus) and proficiency in Python, Tcl, and Make for automation and scripting tasks.
A background in domain-specific STA and timing convergence, such as CPUs, GPUs, or network processor implementation or SOCs, is a plus. Understanding of DFT logic and experience with DFT timing closure for various modes, such as scan shift and capture, transition faults, BIST, etc. is also a plus.
Knowledge of deep sub-micron technology and associated process variations effects, including modeling and converging considering process variations, is also a plus. Experience in methodology and/or flow development as well as automation is also a plus.
As a Senior ASIC Timing Engineer, you will be working on cutting-edge technology and will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the success of our products. You will be part of a talented team of engineers who are passionate about their work and are committed to delivering high-quality results.
If you are a motivated and experienced engineer who is looking for a new challenge, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
