In short

Qualcomm sucht talentierte Physical Design Engineers für seine wachsende SoC- und ASIC-Designorganisation. Erfolgreiche Kandidaten tragen zu Projekten in den Bereichen Hochleistungsrechnen, KI, Mobil, Automotive und Rechenzentrum bei und sind an allen Phasen des physischen Designflusses von der Synthese bis zum Tape-Out beteiligt.

Responsibilities

  • Execute and drive all stages of the physical design flow from synthesized netlist to tape-out.
  • Develop and implement physical design solutions for complex, high-speed, and low-power ASICs and SoCs.
  • Perform floorplanning, partitioning, power planning, and IR-drop analysis.
  • Execute placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, timing optimization, and timing closure across Multi-Mode Multi-Corner (MMMC) scenarios.
  • Analyze and resolve timing violations, signal integrity issues, crosstalk effects, and physical design rule violations.
  • Perform RC extraction, physical verification, and formal verification activities.
  • Implement engineering change orders (ECOs) and support design convergence through sign-off.
  • Collaborate with architecture, RTL, DFT, verification, and methodology teams to ensure successful project execution.
  • Contribute to the development of innovative low-power implementation methodologies and customized place-and-route solutions.
  • Develop automation and productivity tools using scripting languages and software development techniques.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
  • 2-10+ years of industry experience or relevant academic/project experience in Physical Design.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience in one or more of the following areas: ASIC/SoC Physical Design implementation.
  • Place and Route using Cadence Innovus and/or Synopsys Fusion Compiler.
  • Static Timing Analysis and timing closure using Synopsys PrimeTime SI.
  • Physical verification and design sign-off methodologies.
  • Formal verification techniques and tools.
  • Power domain implementation and low-power design methodologies.
  • Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS), routing, and timing optimization.
  • Low power implementation techniques experience
  • Signal integrity, noise analysis, and MMMC sign-off flows.
  • DFT-aware physical implementation and constraint management.
  • Programming and automation using Python, Perl, TCL, Shell scripting, C/C++, and Linux/Unix environments.
  • Perl/Tcl, Python skills are needed.
  • Strong problem solving and ASIC development/debugging skills.
