Senior Staff Engineer, ASIC Design/Implementation

Responsibilities

• Develop and validate timing constraints for intricate SoC designs.
• Collaborate with Architecture, RTL, DFT, and Analog teams to analyze timing complexities and develop consolidated timing modes.
• Perform static timing analysis (STA) using industry-standard tools such as PrimeTime.
• Own STA-related tasks including timing ECOs for blocks and SoCs, and STA flow management.
• Define and implement timing signoff methodologies, including process corners, derates, and uncertainties.
• Automate STA processes and flows using scripting languages like Tcl or Python.
• Conduct post-route timing checks and Quality of Results (QoR) analysis.
• Create QoR dashboards and histograms for STA runs across all modes.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 5-10 years of professional experience, OR a Master’s/PhD with 3-5 years of experience.
• Minimum of 5 years of industry experience specifically in ASIC timing and STA.
• Strong understanding of ASIC design flows from RTL to GDSII.
• Proficiency in STA tools and scripting languages such as Tcl, Perl, or Python.
• Experience with high-complexity silicon in advanced technology nodes, preferably TSMC N4/N5.
• Proven track record of delivering successful designs that meet performance, power, and area goals.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with timing budgeting and optimization for high-speed designs.
• Familiarity with physical design and timing optimization techniques to achieve deterministic timing closure.
• Ability to resolve or find workarounds for complex EDA tool issues.

Benefits

• Employee stock purchase plan with a 2-year look back.
• Comprehensive family support programs.
• Robust mental and physical health resources.
• Recognition and service awards.
