Job description

  • Design Flow Development & Automation: Developing and maintaining specialized software flows for Analog flows, front-end (RTL, simulation), and back-end (synthesis, place and route, timing) design stages.
  • CAD Methodology Improvement: Evaluating and enhancing design methodologies to increase efficiency, such as implementing AI-driven design automation or customizing scripts in SKILL, Python, Tcl, or Perl to streamline repetitive tasks.
  • Tool Configuration and Support: Installing, configuring, and troubleshooting Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools from vendors like Cadence, Synopsys, or Siemens-EDA to ensure they meet project-specific requirements.
  • Physical Verification & Sign-off: Managing design rule checks (DRC), layout vs. schematic (LVS) verification, and parasitic extraction to ensure the chip is manufacturable (tape-out ready).
  • PDK and Library Management: Maintaining Process Design Kits (PDKs) and standard cell libraries provided by foundries to ensure accurate simulation and layout.

Requirements

  • BSEE or MSEE, and 10+ years of experience in EDA
  • Tools: Expertise in major tools like Cadence, Synopsys (Virtuoso, Encounter, etc.).
  • Scripting: Proficiency in SKILL, Python, Tcl, Perl for automation.
  • Physical Design: Experience with DRC (Design Rule Check), LVS (Layout Versus Schematic), P&R (Place & Route), and related flows.
  • Circuit Design: Understanding of digital and analog IC design principles.
  • Semiconductor Process: Knowledge of fabrication processes and Device Physics.
  • Programming: Familiarity with SKILL and hardware description languages (e.g., Verilog/VHDL) is often required.
  • Experience in full-chip or block-level physical design.
  • Developing/supporting PDKs (Process Design Kits) and PCELLs.

Valuable Additional Qualifications:

  • Experience with leading and mentoring layout team members

Preferred Skills:

  • Strong interpersonal and problem-solving skills
  • Prior experience bringing communication products to mass production
