HBM SoC Physical Design Engineer

Responsibilities

• Own physical implementation for SoC blocks and top-level, including floor-planning, placement, CTS, routing, and physical optimization to meet PPA targets.
• Drive timing closure (setup/hold) across multi-mode/multi-corner (MMMC) scenarios in partnership with RTL and STA teams.
• Integrate complex IP such as controllers, microcontrollers, NOC, and MBIST/DFT logic with a focus on timing and power integrity.
• Perform physical signoff, including DRC/LVS, IR drop/EM, and timing signoff.
• Partner with DFT, packaging, assembly, and manufacturing teams to ensure designs meet manufacturability and quality requirements.
• Support tape-out execution and contribute to post-silicon debug by correlating silicon behavior with analysis.
• Improve productivity through scripting, automation, and methodology development.

Requirements

• Strong experience in SoC physical design implementation from netlist to GDSII on advanced nodes.
• Proficiency with industry EDA tools such as Cadence Innovus/Tempus, Synopsys ICC2/PrimeTime, or Siemens Calibre.
• Solid understanding of STA fundamentals, clocking, constraints (SDC), and closure techniques.
• Experience with power intent and power delivery (UPF/CPF concepts, power grid planning).
• Familiarity with physical verification/signoff concepts including DRC, LVS, and ERC.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with HBM/DRAM adjacent SoC designs or memory-subsystem-heavy SoCs.
• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 10 years of experience in a related field.
• Proven ability to mentor and develop junior engineers.

Benefits

• Choice of medical, dental, and vision plans.
• Income protection programs for illness or injury.
• Paid family leave.
• Robust paid time-off program and paid holidays.
