I korthet

As a Physical Design Engineer at Qualcomm Israel, you will support complex digital design implementation from netlist to GDSII using cutting-edge FinFET process technologies. This role involves working with senior engineers on floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, timing closure, and physical verification, with opportunities to develop automation scripts and explore AI-assisted design tools.

Ansvarsområden

  • Support floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), and routing under guidance of senior PD engineers.
  • Assist in timing closure activities including basic STA analysis, path debugging, and constraint verification.
  • Run and analyze IR drop, signal integrity, and electromigration reports using standard EDA tools.
  • Execute physical verification flows (DRC, LVS, DFM) and triage violations.
  • Develop and maintain Python and TCL scripts to automate repetitive tasks.
  • Contribute to flow development initiatives — help build and document in-house PD automation scripts and runsets.
  • Explore Agentic AI-assisted design tools for automated constraint checking, violation triage, and design space exploration.
  • Collaborate with front-end, DFT, and verification teams on design handoffs and ECO implementation.

Krav

  • B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent.
  • 0–3 years of experience in digital Physical Design (academic projects or internships count).
  • Basic understanding of floorplanning, PnR, CTS, and STA concepts.
  • Familiarity with at least one EDA tool: Synopsys ICC2, Cadence Innovus, Calibre, or PrimeTime.
  • Scripting exposure in Python or TCL — ability to read, modify, and write scripts.
  • Eagerness to learn advanced process nodes (TSMC N5/N4P/N3/FinFET).
  • Good analytical and problem-solving skills.

Önskade kvalifikationer

  • Exposure to TSMC advanced node design rules.
  • Familiarity with DFT concepts (scan, ATPG).
  • Any coursework or project experience with AI/ML tools applied to EDA or flow automation.

Förmåner

  • Qualcomm is an equal opportunity employer.
  • Qualcomm is committed to providing an accessible process for individuals with disabilities.
  • Qualcomm is committed to making our workplace accessible for individuals with disabilities.
