Job description

  • Technically lead and manage local and remote teams for complex Subsystem designs digital implementation and signoff.
  • Guide signoff quality timing constraints development and qualification for critical Subsystem designs with hundreds of clocks.
  • Drive PNR flow and methodology for timing critical muti-million deep sub-micro designs flat/hierarchical digital implementation.
  • Handson expertise in all aspects of flat, hierarchical PNR implementation tasks like synthesis, floorplanning, design partitioning, DFT, low power/UPF based implementation, timing constraints, clock tree synthesis, routing and optimization, extraction, timing signoff, signal integrity, physical verification, Power & IR drop signoff to debug and resolve critical implementation bottlenecks.
  • Requires close interaction and collaborative teamwork with multiple functional groups front end, analog, PM/PEMs.
  • Drive RTL, design partitioning, timing constraints related feedback to Frond-end team for data path optimization, clock & reset architecture improvements for enabling high speed timing closure, PPA improvements.

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Deliver signoff-quality, high-performance silicon solutions.
  • Mentor and develop engineering teams.
  • Drive process improvements and technical innovation.
  • Enhance Synopsys’ leadership in high-speed IP.
  • Facilitate successful cross-team collaboration.
  • Enable next-generation chip architectures.

Requirements

You are an experienced IC physical design expert, with strong leadership in digital implementation and signoff for complex, high-speed mixed-signal subsystems.
