Physical Design Engineer, Senior
Bygg, teknik och hantverk · Bygg- och industriteknik · Elektroteknik
I korthet
As a Senior Physical Design Engineer, you will lead block-level and subsystem-level physical implementation, driving timing closure and sign-off on advanced process nodes. You will also contribute to flow development and integrate AI methodologies into design automation practices.
Ansvarsområden
- Lead floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, and optimization for high-speed digital blocks and subsystems.
- Drive timing closure including clock skew balancing, OCV handling, MCMM analysis, and ECO implementation.
- Conduct and own signal integrity, power integrity, IR drop, and electromigration analysis (RedHawk / Voltus).
- Run full signoff verification flows (DRC, LVS, DFM, EM/IR,).
- Develop and maintain backend PD flows using Python and TCL-based automation for PnR, STA, and physical verification.
- Drive Agentic AI integration — leverage AI-assisted tools for automated constraint optimization, timing ECO suggestions, and intelligent violation triage.
- Optimize power and area via Multi-Vt optimization, clock gating, and power-aware synthesis.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with front-end, DFT, verification, and process teams to resolve design and manufacturing issues.
Krav
- 3–8 years of experience in digital Physical Design (Backend) methodologies.
- Experience with advanced process nodes (TSMC N5, N4P, N3, or equivalent FinFET).
- Proficiency in EDA tools: Synopsys ICC2, Cadence Innovus, Calibre, PrimeTime, RedHawk / Voltus.
- Strong understanding of floorplanning, CTS, PnR, STA, IR drop/EM analysis, and power optimization.
- Solid scripting skills in Python and TCL — ability to build and maintain design automation flows.
- Hands-on flow development experience: building reusable scripts, run environments, and regression frameworks.
- Exposure to or curiosity about Agentic AI-driven EDA methodologies.
